Pretty much what he was saying about them just changing the name was that VW noticed they were not selling many Golfs over the past few years, and realized they needed something to jumpstart the car's sales.
I'm sure it was too early to calculate mk5 sales when they made this decision since they are so new (and only the GTI mk5 was around for 06), and the mk5s started off with the "Golf" name, then switched to "Rabbit" for 07 with no new chassis.
there is some severly conflicting info around the internet i see. that is from an article about the new 2006 golf. then on msn autos they show the 2006 golf as a mk4. strange...
