I was wondering if any of you were weighing between the choice of the Golf R and an entry level 40K to 50K sports sedan, and decided to go with the R, and necessarily because of the price.
I am kicking around that choice now. I enjoy driving and do not need butt massagers or something that automatically turns on rain wipers, or such nonsense.
Honestly, nothing else delivers what the R does, not at any price. Maybe the S3 will, but that's at least a year out.
In my 50's and beginning to feel a bit old to be tooling around in a Golf, which to all the world but an informed few will think is a cheap econocar. I suppose who gives a fig what idiots and haters think, but it actually does matter sometimes.
So for those who faced this choice, what pushed you over to the R?
