#120 of 121 Low mileage R32 on dealer lot. by usma90 Apr 14, 2009 (9:26 am)
Let's try this again. I've been looking to drive an R32 after having read so much about them. I drove a 2009 GTI, and while it was a blast, it had tons of torque steer. At least I know the traction/stability control works! I didn't think I'd be able to drive an R32 since they aren't making them anymore, but I found one on my local VW dealer's lot. After driving the R32, I think the price difference between the GTI and R32 is worth every penny. Especially considering the markdown on a used R32. Very little torque steer with the 4matic, great VR6 motor, great exhaust sound, paddle shifters, leather, etc., etc. Replies to this message: drjlag (Aug 19, 2009 3:27 am)

Replying to: usma90 (Apr 14, 2009 9:26 am) So what's the question? Should you buy the R32? I, for one, say YES! Unless you want a manual....
