2015 Golf R. STi's new headache
290 hp awd, 3200 ish lbs, huge brake, 19s stock, 0 to 60 in 4.9 with dual clutch auto... 34 k. sounds like win to me, wife is getting one when her Gti is up next year... should make some good pwr with a reflash and exhaust. prob a 12 sec car for under 2 grand in mods and throw down 35+ mpg...
Its no Mustang, but they might piss you off, especially off the green light.

Always been a fan of Golfs. Just sucks they are such a pain for maintenance after the warranty.

Haha, hot hatches making a comeback. Finally VW is giving it enough power to stay with the rest of the rest of the pack. Still will have a hard time if it is still FWD...or WWD as Dom put it.

no, it has the new EA888, 2.0 with a fuck ton of boost. I think its a factory T04 turbo.
Crimson, ITS ALL WHEEL DRIVE.
6 speed manual or DSG which is like an E gear or PDK. DSG is 3 tenths faster to 60...

I suppose, our current Autobahn was 34k and its a really nice car... Id rather have this car for the same price though.

I dig it. A few upgrades to this car will have it handing a good number of Mustangs their tails.

I like everything but, I wouldn't spend $40k on it. Not my style for that kind of money.

I love that hot hatches are finally making a comeback. They can be really fun to drive, usually get great gas mileage, and are somewhat functional. I want to go play around in one.

Its not 40 k. Its 34 loaded. R's have no options besides how many doors you want. 4 doors only at launch, hopefully the 2 door comes around next summer. They are the same length, but the 2 door looks sportier to me and is about 50 lbs lighter.
