What do you all think of the current model Golf R? I get it, it's a VW, it's probably not going to be problem free for 200,000 miles like a Lexus would, but I think the fun of the Golf can be traded off for some reliability.
I don't really have the money to buy one, I just wonder what people think of it. I drove a 2008 Golf R32 which had less power than this and of course it's older so it has fewer features. You can also get DCC/navigation for about $1000 and a (in my opinion) really nice dual clutch transmission for another $1100.
It's AWD, almost 300hp, easily puts out 350+ with a goAPR tune. If the interior was anything like the 2008 MKV I drove, it's really nice too.
Price $40,000 nice and fully optioned out.
Would you drive it?
