        by Brent Bump on 7/23/2025 7:42:57 PM

        One of the reviews states they downgraded the options between the 24-25 model years. The owner seems to have purchased a 2025 Golf R with the "Euro Style Package", which " is designed for driving purists who want a heightened experience. We’ve removed weight by taking out the standard panoramic sunroof. We also added manually-adjustable front seats covered in grippy diamond-pattern fabric and an Akrapovič titanium exhaust that enhances acoustics." Please always do you research before purchasing any vehicle.

        Perfect car for me

        by Dagot on 11/25/2023 11:11:20 PM

        Dealers in my area are charging $5-7K over MSRP for the Golf R, putting it out of my reach. This is assuming you can put a deposit on a car that is "expected in" but not yet delivered. I worked with a dealer nearly 400 miles away in another state who offered a much better deal and made the drive worthwhile. As a long-time VW driver, I find this care a combination of great, understated looks, plenty fast, and well-equipped. All-wheel drive is a big plus in my part of the country. Yes, the infotainment system needs a knob because changing climate values requires interacting with the touch-screen, but it's not a deal-breaker. Just takes some getting used to. The car is perfect for daily errands and way too much fine on twisty and hilly roads. Since this is the last year for 6-speed transmissions, I'm happy to have bought a car I'm crazy about at a price that was more affordable.
