I have always hated little mini compact cars like the Honda Civic Si and the older Gulfs. However, this is very nice. Volkswagen is turning into a very respectable company.

Will that be shipped to north amercia? I thought it was only europe and some other countries.

Yes, late summer.
But only with an automatic, no HIDs, and possibly new Recaros.

OH MY GOD....That is BEAUTIFUL! I only wish mine looked like that.:( Well, I'm trying, but it ain't working so well! So it IS coming to North America, huh? I hope so. How much are they running for?

Deakins

Less than $30k

The golf is great and all, but I am expecting a headlight shape change sometime in the near future...

Well. Mk5 is coming out next year. (from what I heard). And the headlights should be much different.

Without any doubt... Altough the tuned Oettinger Golf GTI looks pretty damn good too...

But that isn't a golf. :) The R32 isn't a GTI. You could still tune this R32 just like the oettinger one though...

Yves
01-27-2003, 10:25 AM
Yep that's true.

The R32 is a 6-speed 3.4l V6... 241HP... I would pick the R32 :) . But you're right, the R32 is no GTI.

Deakins

:sun:

I guess that makes sense, but isn't the R32 a little expensive? and MAKE IT MANUAL IN NA!@#$@%! :mad:

Sheehan

So it really will be available in America? I heard that it wouldn't be. If it is, when will it become available? Also, I can't belive that it would only be available in an automatic. For a car like that, that just doesn't sound right...

Deakins

Yes, they are taking deposits.
They said August, but there are rumors saying it will be delayed untill Januar.

Well guys,
Sorry for the late reply to this one but just joined the forum and seen this, here goes..........

R32
3.2 V6 4 wheel drive 240ps
UK models are 3 or 5dr and manual only
Goes like a bullet
and only costs £22340 ( 3dr )
£22960 ( 5dr )
Loads of extras over standard V6 4-motion and much, much, much sexier.

i have driven this car and wot I say is pretty damn true ( it does help when you work for a VeeDub dealer in the UK )

Yeehah

realllly nice car but ive heard its very heavy, is this just due to the V6 and AWD or have they added alot of extras?

Deakins
04-19-2003, 08:17 AM
Yes, they have added a lot of extra 'stuff', 220 lb. worth of stuff :)

Kill4A911
04-19-2003, 04:40 PM
well what i meant is how much of that weight is from the engine and AWD tranny and how much is from unnecessary STUFF

the golf r32 isn't a gti. Because she's too heavy.

The last GTi which were product by VW was the Golf Mk2 "Limited" 1.8 16s + g60 210Hp !

did you know this car ?

70ex in the world !!!

I heard that the mk5 is going to share the same chasis with the jetta or the passat one or the other

Deakins
06-27-2003, 04:36 PM
The mk5 Golf will be based on Volkswagen's a5 platform, on witch the new Audi A3 and the Volkswagen Touran is built on.
The mk5 Jetta will be based on the same platform, and the new passat will be based on a lengthened version of the same platform, and not on the new Audi A4's b6 platform.

Hey Deakins!!! Or anyone!!!

Do you have any pictures of the new MK5 Golfs to come???

PEACE!!!! :bigthumb: :icon16: :bloated:

F360m you got it right dude, thats 1 awesome motor!! My freind has 1 of the original motorsport 16v g60 engines in his mk1 golf. Well actually he sold it last week(the engine). The Limited is 1 rare motor, ive only seen 2 in my life.

As for theR32, there were loadz at inters this year and I personally dont think they are quick or powerful enough. Look nice in standard form though.
