I appreciate all the replies guys
Looks like what I'll be looking for is mk7 GTI with 4 door, manual, preferable white exterior, pleather seats with either sport or performance package (it could be that performance package only comes with leather seats and sunroof for either one I don't care but I guess I will have to see when I'll come across one), under 70k miles, based on what I've seen it has to be no less than 2015 but more likely 2016 model.
So far availability on these are low (I understand it can be hard to find exactly what I'm looking for) and prices are still around $20k which is more than I'd like to spend at this time.
here is a pretty good example what I found local to me but looks like its already sold:
1-Owner 2016 Volkswagen GTI SE wPerformance Package 4-Door Hatchback with only 28k and 6-Speed Manual Transmission...Finished in White over Black Leather Interior for a striking color combination...Great options such as Performance Package (13.4-inch Front and 12.2-inch Rear Vented Disc Brakes VAQ Limited Slip Differential and 10 extra HP to the Engine) Rear Camera Fender Premium Audio Automatic Headlights Bluetooth wAudio Streaming Power Sunroof Heated Front Seats and Mirrors Apple CarplayAndriod AutoMirrorlink Capabilities SAT Radio Driving Mode Selection and much more...Fully serviced and still under full VW Factory Warranty
I'll be keep looking and we'll see what happens when mk8 will be announced!
Once again thank you all!
