You're right about bland and boring in driving despite great handling, it was all I could do to stay awake while driving. Energy shots, an audio book and chats with the lady were hardly enough to keep me going. Ten years ago I don't think anybody would dare buy a Kia, despite their radical deals and offerings. In the past five years alone Kia has made strong strides to give the people a better quality product not to mention help people into their first new car.
VW does give its bang for the buck, I have to admit having driven everything shy of a classic and new beetle. I think the Golf is tried and true one of VW's best small cars aside the Polo/Fox. Though I'm not thrilled about VW making an exclusive NA only lineup of cars.
