Title: from GTi to R32… don't hate me...
Post by: Aweful_Truth on August 05, 2014, 08:19:22 pm
so back in 2011 i got myself a mk5 GTi, always wanted one, could finally afford one! had it for 2 years and then decided to move on, in-between had an Audi A5 2.0Tdi S-line Special edition and even a Hawkeye subaru impreza WRX STI PPP at 320bhp from factory.

however, i missed my mk5 throughout this time an awful lot!! so… i wanted another, but, i wanted four wheel drive and more cylinders. fortunately Volkswagen tendered to my needs perfectly! so here is the GTI first followed by the new whip!

And the new R32 which already has 280bhp on stage 2 as well as a milltek manifold back exhaust and eibach coilovers

It's not as powerful by a fair margin, the acceleration from the Subaru was breathtaking, but other than that the scooby didn't have much going for it in terms of comfort, space blah blah so the golf is a much better all rounder and isn't exactly lacking in poke either, plenty fast for me  :smiley:
