Technik: Gegenüber dem normalen Golf I ist das Gewicht allein der Rohbaukarosserie des Cabriolets um 90 kg erhöht, gegenüber dem Golf I GTI ist das GLI-Cabriolet insgesamt 140 kg schwerer. Im GLI-Cabriolet findet sich neben dem GTI-Motor (81 kW/110 PS, K-Jetronic) auch das sportlichere Fahrwerk mit strafferen Stoßdämpfern, etwas verbreiterten Reifen und ebenfalls leicht verbreiterten Kotflügelausschnitten. Im Vergleich zum VW Käfer Cabriolet wurde die Karosserie-Durchbiegung um 10 % und die Verwindung um 40 % verringert. Das Dach besteht aus fünf Schichten: Unter dem äußeren Dachbezug gibt es eine Schicht Nesselmaterial, dann eine 20 mm dicke Polsterschicht aus Gummihaar, darunter nochmals Nesselmaterial und danach der Kunststoff-Dachhimmel. Der cW-Wert beträgt 0,48 mit geschlossenem Dach, 0,53 mit offenem Dach bei geschlossenen Fenstern und 0,55 bei offenem Dach und maximal geöffneten Fensterscheiben.
