Got myself a Golf R. 300hp, DSG, and lots of (cool) amenities. It will work well in every conditions. Less pure fun, but comfort, space, 5doors, a real boot, and wait, it's also quick  |
Funny, I'm in the opposite situation. Currently have a '17 Golf R, and as much as I like it (comfort, power/torque, amenities, 4-door access), I'm giving very serious consideration to getting rid of it in favor of an 86/BRZ/FR-S.
I know I'd miss the power and tech bits, but I really miss having a tossable RWD car. My main concern is rear seat space (or lack thereof) for my 9-year-old son. Mind you, when I do have a passenger he's usually the only one in the car with me. Decisions!
