gordy.r Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 So I'm not the biggest fan of hot hatches although I wouldn't mind owning an Audi RS3. But this..... This could give a few TT BPU owners a run for their money! http://www.car24news.com/volkswagen-golf-r420-production-confirmed/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cered Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Problem with that car is... You end up owning a Volkswagen Golf. Perhaps the most dull car of our generation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra_ufo Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Its funny i thought to myself the hot hatches are catching up to bpu power...a remap on one of these you will easily see over 400. I have heard a stage 1 golf r runs 11.8 1/4 miles :S time for single... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra_24 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Who would want a golf over a supra anyway lol. Besides you see golfs everyday on the road, there nothing special. Whereas the Supra is a rare sight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony tt Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 It could make 600hp it's still a golf. There's no soul in owning a Golf. It's hardly iconic like our mighty and noble steeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're joking, right? The Golf is up there with the biggest icons in motoring history. It's as big a thing as Beetle, 911, E-Type, Mini etc. I wonder which will be remembered in 25 years - Golf or Supra? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safcdixon Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 The mk1 golf is iconic but the rest are a long long line of disappointments, especially the mk3 those are awful cars even the vr6 was horrible, the mk4 r32 golf got some of the magic back but since then theyve been both ugly and slow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't agree with the mk6 edition 35, did seem like anything great. More a mk5.5. I liked the W650 concept Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 I'd like to see the torque figures of this. If it's anything like the 400hp Evo then it won't be very nice to drive. Never know though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkddav3 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 That looks pretty awesome don't forget the supra is near on 20 years old, the equivalent sports car nowadays is the gtr which comes with 600bhp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Bailey Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 I like it I think the new Golf R's looks fantastic. The latest golf is easily the best looking so far in my opinion . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitbox Junkie Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 I just dis like the looks. It has nothing on a supra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
