Should VW make a new R32?

I really liked the old Golf R32. Many people don't seem to like the styling of the new Golf, but new regulations are calling for more pedestrian-safe cars. The newest issue of Motor Trend has an article about new European pedestrian safety regulations for cars.

p.s. The new Golf has a chassis that is twice as rigid as last year's Golf.

It was a special edition, a last nod to the end of the mk4s. VW always has special eds., from Wolfsburgs to GLIs, etc. Give it a few years and there'll be some more limited mk5s as well.

Whats funny was that press reporters from the states for motor trend/ autoweek ect. went over to europe to test the r32 and Hans dieter the product manager was there and the reporters actually convinced him to bring the r32 over here because they knew that there was a market for them here. and he did! Wow, isnt that weird that reporters can ACTUALLY do something helpful here? !~!!!!
