Used 2006 Volkswagen GTI Base

Clean Carfax. Silverstone Gray 2006 Volkswagen GTI Base FWD 6-Speed Manual 2.0L 4-Cylinder FSI Turbocharged. Experience pure driving enjoyment in this extremely rare 2006 Volkswagen GTI 2.0T, one of only a handful left in the entire country—and just three nationwide equipped with a manual transmission. The GTI’s iconic design and driver-focused engineering have made it a cornerstone of the hot hatch world, and this example perfectly captures why. Compact, quick, and engaging, it combines turbocharged performance with everyday practicality in a way only Volkswagen can deliver. Under the hood lies the legendary 2.0-liter turbocharged and intercooled DOHC 16-valve 4-cylinder engine, producing 200 horsepower and 207 lb-ft of torque. Mated to the enthusiast-favorite 6-speed manual transmission, this GTI delivers an authentic driving experience with precise shifts and instant throttle response. Front-wheel drive, sport-tuned suspension, and Volkswagen’s balanced chassis tuning create a nimble yet confident feel on every curve. The setup is enhanced by Electronic Stability Program (ESP), Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR), and 4-wheel Anti-Lock Brakes (ABS), ensuring composed control even when you push its limits. The GTI’s styling remains timeless, with a clean, purposeful design that stands apart from the crowd. The honeycomb grille with red accents, bold VW emblem, and 17-inch Denver alloy wheels give it a distinctly European look. Dual chrome exhaust tips, sculpted side skirts, and the signature red GTI badging add just the right amount of aggression, while its compact proportions and hatchback practicality make it as functional as it is fun. Inside, the cabin reflects Volkswagen’s heritage of craftsmanship and attention to detail. Sport bolstered seats in the classic Interlagos plaid pattern, a hallmark of GTI identity, offer both comfort and grip during spirited drives. The flat-bottom leather-wrapped steering wheel, metallic pedal covers, and clean dash layout create a cockpit that feels connected, intuitive, and ready for performance. Split-folding rear seats and a spacious cargo area make it surprisingly versatile for daily use. Features include Climatronic automatic climate control, heated seats, a premium sound system with CD/MP3 compatibility, remote keyless entry, and power accessories throughout. Every element has been designed to enhance the driving experience, creating a blend of convenience and performance that keeps the GTI relevant even years later. Safety was also a priority for Volkswagen, and this GTI includes front, side, and curtain airbags, active head restraints, and a rigid safety cell, offering peace of mind while maintaining lightweight agility. The 2006 Volkswagen GTI 2.0T is more than a car—it’s a collector’s piece of modern automotive history. With only about seven of these still on the road nationwide—and just three known manual-transmission examples—finding one in this condition is nearly impossible. It’s the perfect choice for enthusiasts who appreciate analog performance, turbocharged precision, and European design in a compact, iconic package.
