Joe Matt commented on 11 Mar 2015

Because the interior dash light came stock blue so I kept the color...

First drive review: 2012 Volkswagen Golf GTI versus 2012 Golf R

jtkent28 commented on 27 Jun 2012

Great review.. I agree with a lot of your points on both the cars. I in fact did buy myself a '10 GTi base model AND a motorcycle with the money i could have spent on the Golf R. I live in New England, however, and do not believe the GTi needs AWD or more HP for that matter. Front wheel drive is perfectly adequate for winter driving as I have lived here my whole life and never gotten stuck (if it IS that bad, then stay home..). And with a simple stage 1 tune I can keep up with the R no problem.

Batner112 commented on 24 Jun 2013

That is a 100% false answer! Just the jetta limousine and the Golf Variant are built in Mexico the hatchbacks are all coming from Germany in Wolfsburg, where the assembly line of the hatchbacks are! The difference in power is maybe of law or emissionslaw which is different in other countries, or its just of company policy! But a true fact is that the hatches are all from Germany and i have seen even in the BMW factory in Munich that the cars for the US gets different taillights with red blinkers

ToInfinity1 commented on 22 Oct 2012

Yes, you are exactly correct. My US spec GTI with every option I can get doesn't have a lot of the useful features the Euro spec GTI gets. For example, I don't get any park assist system, electric damper control, electric seats, auto dimming mirrors, rain sensing wipers, and I'm sure there's still more. I have a lot less functions with the car's lighting system. I have the RNS 315 nav system which is cheaper. There's more to my complains but no room, and this is probably why it's cheaper.

cookieodo1 commented on 13 May 2012

Haven't driven either of the mk6's but for the mk5 the GTI was waaaaay better to drive than the R32, felt more responsive and more exciting, the extra weight just kills the fun. Unless you need 4wd there's no need for it. I would like to see Roman test the Edition 35 GTI (if you get it in USA?) as the Edition 30 mk5 was awesome and would smoke the more powerful R32 all day long! (I used to work for VW and everybody who I worked with agreed the GTI was the better car)

omidool commented on 19 Mar 2012

I couldn't agree more with you about AWD (or at least RWD) and more power, but I'm not sure about firmer suspension and bigger breaks, because I just love the way GTI handles, and its breaks have been fantastic for me. I put aFe Air Intake on mine and just love it. The R didn't impress me at all. For extra $10,000 I was expecting much more. I couldn't even tell if it was faster than my GTI or not (I may have 10hp more with the new Intake)! Good review though.

Batner112 commented on 17 Jul 2012

LOL why is the GTI in the USA so cheap? In Germany the GTI starts at 26000€ and with no Navigation and Xenonheadlights at all, just with the basic stuff. And the R starts at 37000€ wtf? We ship this car to states tousends of Km by ship and its even cheaper in the US as in Germany were we produce it? And even they got the cheaper gas prizes, thats not fair! But the GTI has 210hp and the R has got 270hp

n00b1n4t0r commented on 15 Apr 2012

Dude you have to drive a car with a DSG to understand the difference. In everyday use it will be ur best friend and when it comes to sport driving this thing will shift so fast that if you compare the same car with dsg vs manual the dsg will be at least 3 cars ahead. Before driving one i would never consider buying a sporty automatic car but when i had a test drive in one of those i was really surprised.

cookieodo1 commented on 21 Oct 2012

I think it's mainly due to taxes, if I remember correctly your sales tax on new vehicles is 6%, whereas, in the UK ,and most of Europe, sales tax is 15%+ (20% in UK). Also sometimes manufacturers use cheaper parts on US models as they know they are competing with cheaper manufacturers that offer similar performance for a lower price, I know BMW always used to do this, not sure about VW

beatachevy289 commented on 08 Jun 2013

The variables in the output figures on an engine have little to do with "worse fuel". The numerical ratings don't make a 91 octane inferior to a 93 octane. You have to factor in the tune, emissions control regulations, compression ratios, etc. The octane rating of the fuel has far more to do with clean combustion principles with all of these factors in place than output rating.

ThePirateMD commented on 25 Mar 2012

I really have to be honest- the Golf R should have 300 horses STOCK. 300 is easily attainable with an ECU upgrade from APR ($800) but still.. I just bought a GTI and I cannot fathom why one would buy a Golf R. Interior isn't that much better, AWD is good, but tires makes the difference... meh, I want the Golf R to succeed, but I just feel that VW shot themselves in the foot.

Volnik commented on 15 Jul 2012

Great video! I love the GTI and I certainly do agree that AWD, firmer suspension with better brakes, and more power would be much appreciated. I would love to see the next GTi to have a bit more power and torque, at least.. The rest of the stuff is just too expensive to put all at once. R is a great car, but is too pricey :/ 250ish hp is not enough to make you go like WOW.

Lex5576 commented on 07 Jul 2012

It's always a real ballbuster with cars coming from Europe without all the neat stuff. We went for years driving the dopey ass Americanized version of the Ford Focus, while the Brits and Europeans were driving the nice, sporty UK version with the performance engine. Ford's management needs it's ass stomped for handing us it's cheap, boring garbage all those years.

ProudfootHobbit commented on 17 Jun 2012

I am considering to replace my 2011 Corolla S with a Golf but I am unhappy to hear that they are not made in Germany. I would never buy another new car made in North America, every car I've bought built in Canada, Mexico or here in the US have given me nothing but problems (including that piece of shit Corolla) so looks like my only option is a Mazda3??

AEKARA27 commented on 12 May 2012

Roman you forgot to say one thing which for me is a huge negative for the R. Over 200lbs heavier than the GTI. I drove both and for me that makes a difference. Forget even the price difference, the GTI is a little more comfortable, a little sharper in turns, and overall I think for day to day driving its the better choice.

Blake Stephens commented on 28 Oct 2012

The USA doesn't realize how cheap cars are over there. You can get everything half price pretty much including supercars like Lambo's. I could go over there at age 20 and buy a brand new fully optioned GTI where as here in Australia i can only afford a second hand one with 40,000km's and a few years old.

Bang Mangler commented on 30 Mar 2012

You forgot to mention the fake engine noise pumped into the cabin by the Soundaktor speaker. Car & Driver magazine covered it. It's in every GTI from 2011+. It's a hockey puck sized buzzer speaker behind the windshield wiper arms. Removing it is easy and it actually allows you to hear real engine noise.

teisenmenger commented on 09 May 2012

The nice thing about DSG is that you *don't* have to give up your involvement with driving - you can still choose your shift points, after all. I'd love to see a study of shift reaction times for the six-speed manual vs DSG paddle shifters or the sport shift. I'm willing to bet they're almost spot-on.

What kind of head unit is that you're rocking in the GTI?

Kansai Rider commented on 24 Jan 2016

I think it's called a Panasonic Strata.It's pretty old.

Andrew Trout commented on 13 Jan 2016

Was it a WRX or an STI that you were looking at? What year? I'm surprised you think the interior was huge in the Suby, but I haven't been in a GTI so by comparison that could be very true. The biggest question though: How fast does it shift? ;D

Kansai Rider commented on 13 Jan 2016

I just felt so small inside I felt like even the dash was high like I was a kid who wasn't tall enough to see all the way over.The way I feel about this transmission changes nothing about how slow the Lamborghini shifts. XD

I love you to respond to all comments XDD

I could get used to this.

Kansai Rider commented on 05 Jan 2016

+HugeSine667 I've got a lot of video I haven't edited yet. It should last for a few weeks, maybe a month.

HugeSine667 commented on 05 Jan 2016

So what are you gonna post while your not to be riding?

Kansai Rider commented on 05 Jan 2016

I've made two more but between you and me this one was my favorite. I can see me doing these once in a while though.

VW makes it really hard to want to buy a GTI or Golf R after seeing the R400! 

vamp bl commented on 10 Jul 2015

+Justin Grazulis the price will make it easier lol

Telekinesis commented on 13 Dec 2014

Is R400 available for sale? 

tredfxman commented on 16 Jul 2015

Here in Europe its said to come at end of 2015. IF it will come to the states its probably coming a year later.

That Bentley looks like a SsangYong reject. Seriously. What the fuck are they thinking. They just unveiled a drop-dead gorgeous coupe concept and then follow up with that pig? Anyone buying that is only after the label.

I agree it's just VW trying to sell footballers a touraeg or Q7 with a premium interior and stupid grill
