ok guys this is the new r20 its here to replace the r32 and it has the option to come in 6 speed standard.. 2.0 turbo 270 horses AWD from the audi looks promising..
i have a question guys...i am unbiased to car manufacturers, i've always loved the looks of vw, but was too afraid to buy one because of "reliability" issues. and so i stuck with japanese. There's such a German following. die hard fans or owners. my question is..is it really a huge difference and worth the money buying this car rather than the quicker higher performing STI? two different cars but...
@GreezyLu ... The only thing to do is go test-drive both cars. Reliability is not an issue. I've owned nothing but Japanese and German cars, and I've never had a single problem with either one.
@ khamtran78 its coming mate in july price tag about 55-60k off the showroom 350nm of torque but detuned down to 188kw due to our fucked up hot weather lol... either way it will fly mate
@widowedeight: umadbrah? haha go drive your fail of a cobalt and I'll enjoy the european refinery and all around better looking, handling, interior of a car. dont get upset that you cant afford a nice car.
@Widowedeight, it really is about what you want from a car.
Not everyone wants to red line it from their drive to the end of their street.
This car, in terms of sheer quality and engineering is a absolutely brilliant. The downside is that it's bloody expensive, but VW don't care... their target audience for this car will pay up...
It is completely different than sitting in your Cobalt, which you may love, but others would like a different type of experience in their car....
Something like that. The stick has a + and - position and display changes to 6 5 4 3 2 1 if you are in manual mode, like a motorbike. There's no clutch-pedal.
But it's a little bit restrictive, in order to protect the engine the gear changes one up before revs pass the redline, and when you are near the redline, you can't change down.
awd, turbo, and still a fail of a car....... the better gain like 50whp and 100wtq from a tune otherwise my silly little cobalt is gonna be picking on them all the time..... especially since i'm sure they cost double what i paid for my cobalt
if you don't unterstand the TSI concept: These 270hp arise out of a small 2.0l engine with small mileage, 2 litres less than its forerunner. This engine was not made for the racetrack.
widowedeight please relax a bit, no one is having a go. vw's are always a bit on the lardy side due to having about 10 airbags & high grade plastic etc. look if you want to buy the cheaper car (and you did) thats fine, but it is the 'cheaper' car mate, the reason this car is more than your cobalt is its more complicated with irs and 4motion etc. We have the cobalt ss over here called the astra vxr, it's a great car for what it is and for the record I drive a diesel bmw so what do in know, lol.
You also forgot to mention "2009 World car of the year, 2009 4 Awards in world engine of the year, This car is absolutely top notch in many more ways than one 10/10."
@TheMegaCONARTIST what are you on fucking crack it is a 4cyl. awd car with LESS tq then hp!!!!!!!..... and if vw sticks to it's plans it's going to be a HEAVY AS SHIT 0-60 in 5.7sec turd (5.5sec with dsg)...... which is a complete joke because that makes it the same 0-60 as a turbo cobalt or ford focus rs (both fwd) in manual, or a slower 0-60 time then the RALLIART lancer, or scooby wrx....... and all 4 of the car i just mentioned are about 5-13grand less money then this P.O.S
A piece of shit? Yeah that's probably why it got the NCAP safety rating as most safe hatchback of 2010 & most reliable. Just one jealous kid that can't afford either of these cars lol. Besides, people don't buy cars because the other one is like 0.5sec quicker or faster! Oh no! That's so horrible!!! I'm gonna die by this sad sad news knowing it's slower! Not. 1 btw the Golf R is quicker then the Ford Focus RS, you must be on drugs.

its a double clutch gearbox called a dsg with paddles on the steering wheel, so its quicker than a manual gearbox to 60mph

Apart from that, it's not all about 0-60.
But I agree with you when it comes to pricing.

May I correct you?
It has 270PS/HP
0-100Km/h(0-62mph) in 5.7 sec without DSG and 5.5 sec with DSG. =)
Vmax is 250Km/h (155mph) and it's limited.
