Volkswagen Full Line Drive: 2012 Golf R

[mEmOk8]

Vw are the best

[superhel]

For America i see no sense for buying a Golf R...

You have general Speed Limit!

Greetings from Germany!

[heemoii]

@superhel but getting to that general speed limit would be fun, eh?

[superhel]

@heemoii

NO...

[DtotheG1969]

@superhel Ever heard of a race track? We have them here in the States ;)

[superhel]

@DtotheG1969

We have the Autobahn...

Because Racetracks are too mainstream!

[DtotheG1969]

@superhel That doesn't even make any sense.

[superhel]

@DtotheG1969

The Autobahn has no general speedlimit!

[DtotheG1969]

@superhel Nether do privately operated racetracks all over the States...so what?

[superhel]

@DtotheG1969

So waht is better?

To drive fast and economic from A to B or driving on a Racetrack?

[su6oxone]

lol... only 'automotive expert' is a guy from vw homer site, vw vortex? nice try vw...

[imagonashootya]

hmmm better then the 08 r32?

[507sam]

GOLF R engine use timing chain or timing belt?

[turbo311]

@507sam belt as far as i know so yes cam follower issue

[507sam]

@turbo311 oh no....

[teemgo]

Seemed like a lot of road noise??

[heemoii]

@teemgo nah, u can tell it wasn't a good mic

[AoAlKaustic]

"Flog it all day long and drive it to work Monday morning"? Obviously Sir you don't know me. Gimme 30 minutes and an empty parking lot.

[giancarlosfirmo12345]

OMG!! ainda Vou Fazer Faculdade! Preciso de money

[beautyinmetal]

a different car than the r32. better perhaps?

[Davide888]

It's nice but $10K more than the GTI? I don't think so.

[TheWrewster]

@Davide888 It's only $10k difference if you were buying the cheapy bare bones GTI and not the well equipped one. All Golf R's come with leather, multi function steering wheel, LED's up front, bigger brakes, AWD, Premium touch screen stereo, and etc... there really only is a $5,555 dif if you compare apples to apples and it's worth every penny.

[Knot2shaby]

How much hp does this 4 banger have?

[jackies83]

@Knot2shaby 270

[smoke121507]

Pretty sure it should of stayed a VR6...

[TheDan4279]

what the difference between R32 and R

[JdubsFTW]

@TheDan4279 the R32 is the 2008 model of the Golf R class, it has a 3.2 V6 (hence 32) the new 2012 R has a turbo 4 cylinder engine that somehow produces even more horsepower. I love my R32, but this thing looks awesome.

[TheDan4279]

@JdubsFTW iam geting a 2012 vw golf R or 2012 vw golf gti

[JdubsFTW]

@TheDan4279 If you have the money for it, get the R it is awesome, but the GTI is REALLY good too.

[adomaro007]

nice advertising for the Golf R but after the 40 000 km You will hate the day you buy this car many sounds will come from Gearbox ,defferential ,no body know and the company will reply this is normal sounds this is the dsg ... i will compare ur R with toyata Yaris or less @ list the yaris they can fix BTW i have 2007 R32 and i have sound coming in the car and the company cannot fix ...

[JLCVDUB]

@adomaro007 No DSG for the R. Manual trans only.

[flex215]

Does he really need to take both hands off of the wheel?!!.... SMH

[mkleiner58]

Want one!

[DudasMiska]

fukin awesome car!

[BMX4CRACK]

no dsg for u.s.

no thanks

[JdubsFTW]

@BMX4CRACK agreed my 2008 has a DSG and i would never go for a manual after it.

[flex215]

@BMX4CRACK you must have been dropped on your head as a child.

[damianson]

@flex215 thats what iv been hearing from dealerships in my area as well....

[MrGTDONE]

it has dynaudio sound ?

[dark1567]

@MrGTDONE sure

[jackies83]

@MrGTDONE as an extra, but yes

[FalkataSports]

Great looking Golf!!!

[Hybridog]

Yeah that is nice.  I got a little schwing.

[therealjohnio]

Ohhh Golf R.... ok. What's this starting price in America??

[oscarfish48]

@therealjohnio $17,995

:)

[TaladagaCockknocker]

@oscarfish48 It's starting at ~$33 grand, you fucking asshole.

[oscarfish48]

@TaladagaCockknocker Thats what it said on the website, grumpy pants

[DaLeadBull]

@oscarfish48 You are like 90% of people in American, you don't know the difference between a regular Golf and a Golf R.

[oscarfish48]

@DaLeadBull Why does every one act like I just committed some awful crime? OK I made a mistake, im sorry, get over it.

[hassansyed101]

WOW!!!



[gidden2001]

Nice car. Still like the look of the VR6 one better, but this one looks way better than the last one.

[viperboy749]

Love this...I have an 06 GLI Jetta with 87k miles... time for an upgrade. My cars getting stale. contemplated a new Camaro.

[56Goodguy]

As a current 09 Jetta owner, I'd love to drive the Golf R sometime..

[Ironikfrombe]

WHAAAAT A DREAM CAR !
