Hey all Mark here, I got a Pirelli 18months ago and I am already bored and want the R...... The Pirelli fwd is just killing me.... a normal GTI seems to have a bit more of that down low repsonse the Pirelli feels like nothing then bang wheel spin... or the traction control cuts in so early you go no where, BUT when you are on the roll wow it flies and I love it, to make this car perfect they now have the R ! and I want one!

Correct. But as already confirmed in Aust they are to be called simply "Golf R" there is no way I'd go from a Pirelli back to a slower 32... hehee But the Pirelli with the TD04 REALLY needs AWD I have no idea how the guys with chipped TD04s live with the FWD as a daily!

The same way you drive a 200kw+ atw MPS. Better throttle controlOriginally posted by MAKO_006 View PostCorrect.

Not my cup of tea.... driving the Pirelli for the last 18months convinced me never to chase more power out of it, open road driving sure I'd love it! traffic and city driving? stuff that give me a normal TD03 GTI or an R ! that's what i'm going for.Originally posted by 2000MN View PostThe same way you drive a 200kw+ atw MPS.

Now that would be a perfect garage, the R & R32 together.Originally posted by aRedFastCar View PostI have an R32 and my wife has a Black Pirelli. I dont want to get rid of the R32 'cause it it just too good, so I have convinced her to sell the Pirelli, let me buy the new R and she inherits the R32.Sweet!
