今天研究了一下golf在美国市场的情况，简要汇报如下：
1、目前美国市场也是golf4
2、golf5在美国的上市时间是2006年5月，一年多之后！
3、golf4的一些配件非常好，如ESP套件，usd280等
4、golf4目前在美国的价格区间是1.6~2.1万美元，而丰田corallas是1.3~1.8万美元，谁在中国高利就明白多了。

所有2005年golf5在国内上市的可能性不太大。

Introduction: We've always liked the Golf, a fun-to-drive, chunky-but-spunky hatchback that has been a best-seller in Europe for more than two decades. Here in the States, the fourth-generation Golf does battle against a range of compacts, many of them with less impressive credentials. Just what's so likable about this car? Well, each one has a lengthy list of standard features; a roomy, solidly constructed cabin furnished in high-quality materials; and though not as sporting as the GTI, offers traditional Germanic handling characteristics -- that is, a nice blend of ride comfort and agility around corners. You also get the pride of owning "the original hatchback" rather than the latest newcomer.
The trade-off for the Golf's many attributes is higher pricing compared with peers like the Ford Focus and Honda Civic. Also to be considered is the VW's 115-horsepower base four-cylinder engine -- these days, most manufacturers are providing a bit more power. Still, you can equip any Golf with a diesel four-cylinder (called the TDI, which stands for turbocharged direct injection), which has been revised this year to deliver even more power than before and up to 50 mpg on the highway.
While the engine lineup isn't as exciting as the Jetta's or the GTI's, we think a TDI-equipped Golf would be a satisfying choice for people (with some flexibility in their budgets) who want a fuel-efficient economy car that doesn't feel like a discount buy.

建议大家可以到北美这样的成熟市场看看行情，可能会有些益处。
另外我非常想装自动巡航，280美元，不知能否让朋友带回国内，4s帮助安装，谁有消息？

ESP（电子稳定系统）也是280美元，这个更想装，有了这个系统，7月在青海湖畔就能躲过翻车一劫了。
可以在4s装吗？

是的，定速巡航，才100美金？是正品吗？强烈关注中。。。

850元，在哪里装呢？

就是定速巡航，不同叫法。
长途旅行有用。好像bora的高端可以装。可是从原理上是都可以装的。
