Long Island, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/11/2011 -- The 2012 VW GTI brings another year to the illustrious history of VW’s famous hatchback car. In the 35th year of the model, the 2012 VW GTI brings the performance, style, and technology that has made the model so popular. Legend Nissan is ecstatic to have the 2012 VW GTI now available at the dealership for customers.

The 2012 GTI is powered by a 2.0 liter, four-cylinder, turbo-charged engine that helps to unload 200 horsepower and 207 lb-ft of torque. With some great power, the GTI still maintains excellent fuel efficiency with 31 mpg on the highway and 21 in the city.

Customers must choose which GTI they would rather have, the two-door or the four-door version. Plenty of add-ons are available to personalize the GTI for each driver.

New to the GTI for the 2012 model is the GTI with Convenience and Sun Roof model. The new themed GTI gives drivers some extra style with a power tilt/slide sunroof, leather-trimmed steering wheel with multifunction buttons, and the premium touch screen for the stereo.

The GTI with Sunroof and Navigation returns from last year adding sunroof, navigation screen, and LED daytime running lights. As well as the Autobahn version which adds LED daytime running lights and 18” Serron aluminum wheels.
