Hey all;
My Golf TDI is getting bought back by VW since I am already at ~160k miles and it wouldn't make sense to pass up the buyback at this point.
One of the cars I am considering as a replacement is a Golf R. I miss my R32, and while the Golf R isn't the same in the engine department, it is obviously an overall faster, better car; and I expect it would "fill the void" quite nicely...
What I am wondering is the goods/bads of doing a MK6 R vs a MK7 R; and if it makes more sense to go used or just get the new one? Anyone compared them or driven both? Are the new "perks" of the MK7 R worth it, or just fluff? Are there any drawbacks other than the higher price?
Thanks!
