Aint Doing Sh*t
What was this thread about again? Wait I have a golf R?
OP is you can get past the price, its a awesome car. Only VW and other cars guys will know what it is. One dude in a GTI noticed me. If you say that you have a low torque problem then you wont mind that nothing happens until 3k rpm.

You know, I wish I could go into a thread and not see a certain member keep poking the fire. For one, every thread he posts in eventually becomes derailed, which entirely unacceptable and annoying. How hard is it to keep you opinions to yourself until asked?
We have a great community of people from all walks of life and all different styles and tastes, and no ones opinion is more right than someone else. That is what is so greatly admired by everyone here and on other forums is our sense of camaraderie and welcoming atmosphere. Stop abusing it. If you're going to be a prick to everyone then you can leave, because that's not the kind of behavior we like to exude on this forum.
I can only hope this can be handled with some maturity, but sadly I'm not very optimistic on that, as it hasn't been seen in the past.
Now, lets get this thread back on track.

Any chance you would consider a GTI and throwing the money you saved into mods? The only thing you wouldn't be able to match the Golf R with is the AWD. Unless AWD is a necessity for you, then ignore the crazy talk.

Dang. Didn't the difference between a fully loaded GTI and R is +$8k.
I thought it was like $4k difference. $8k difference is pretty crazy.

I'm not sure how it is elsewhere but in IL there are certified VW dealers that will install APR parts and everything will still be covered under warranty. That was however limited to stage 2 upgrades (from what I remember the sales person telling me).

Doing that would surely yield a faster car, but he would also be on the hook for any repair needed. The dealers would give him a fight on any warranty work. Might be best to hold off on the purchase a year and see if they start discounting them to move them.

There are plenty of dealers that will install and back APR parts, programs, & accessories.

What if the owner blows up the engine with the APR tune that was installed by the dealership? Would the dealership cover the warranty work? Just curious.

^^ They would cover it in the same manner if an owner blew a stock engine.
It varies on the situation....the dealer will always look into the "why" and "how" the engine blew.

I guess it all depends on youre plans. FWD has its limitations.

I'd rather get an EVO with a much superior AWD system than this 35k toaster.
Reasons why people complain about ride quality in a performance car:
a) back problems
b) too old
c) have a vagina

Sometimes I think you are starting to recover. The you come out with something like this.

It all depends on which options you go with and if you're looking at a 2 door or a 4 door. So "+$8k" is exaggerating it a bit but it gets close to that number for the 4 Doors.

I got smoked by one them kids that had an r32. The VW mod community is a pretty solid/cool community, got a chance to learn little more about the vr6 and plethora of exhaust mods.
