@Red

 

But my first thought over that pix is the evil darth vader.

@ nb07
me too.... that Rocco R has greater appeal than Golf R.

OH MY LORD!

Do you think that pic started out as a mk5 5 door - rear door removal and side skirts.

Gives a nice idea though.

truly shocking photoplop, definitely could have spent a few seconds removing the door lines, making the glass fit properly with the finish lines etc etc

good effort though, gets the idea across, dont like it though, neither would speed bumps

just read an artical on the R20 golf, and was not impressed with the figures, 270BHP is a nice base level of horsepower, but 258Ibft torque is pretty rubbish, considering a stage 2 GTI puts about 300Ibft out.

still I imagine it should tune up very well, with all the extra internal work, then those figures should be vastly increased. for the price though i dont think its worth the money

It will tune exactly the same as a S3, leon cupra, ed30.

....Should definitely tune and modify very well by all accounts.

But the question of it being 'worth the money' is very subjective and relative. If you've got the money available and you have test driven the car and love it, then it's worth it for you. Just because you can buy something else for less money which may perform just as well (or even better), it doesn't make the Golf R any lesser.

We buy cars as a holistic package and choose which one for a whole variety of different reasons - Many of them irrational! Money is only one factor and not necessarily the one which leads the decision.
