  • [QUOTE=coreying;526473]I agree, anyone in Brisbane who is interested in modding a VW should go and see Guy! But if you want to drive the R, you may not want to do that right now, because if you check out this post, it's currently without an engine [/QUOTE

    As if this forum has not had enough of................................................ .

    • LOL Coreying doesn't even live in SE QLD .

      They are a sponsor no harm in recommending a good product.

      What's with all the APR hate from a select few in Melbs.

      • Lol... yeah, I wish I had some APR kickbacks or whatever it is that you're trying to imply R1 Crasher. "Unfortunately" I'm "just" a satisfied APR customer

          • Normally I would fix up your posts to correct the ] that you've left out of them to break the quotes (2nd quote tag in 1st post, 1st quote tag in 2nd post)... but then I wouldn't want to be accused of censoring anything...
            Not really sure why you've got a bee in your bonnet, but you're entitled to your opinion.

                          • I'm car-less as of next week. If you guys are right and the dealer is wrong (Was told around september) then there will be issues.

                            • The Golf R was always going to be a huge waiting game, especially if you want your desired spec .

                              • Picked up my R today!
                                Wooo!!

                                I've only done 35kms in it, so I might provide a bit more of a review when I have some more experience. But having driven WRX's for the last 7 years (MY03 and MY0 I can happily say the R puts them to shame! The R feels faster (I suspect due to DSG gear changes), but the biggest difference is in the ride/handling/steering. Its in a whole different dimension, nowhere near as much body roll (the MY08 was bad for that) and a lot more grip. ACC makes a very noticeable difference to the handling, in sport mode it felt more like driving my brothers Elise than my WRX (with crashing noises going over potholes like the Elise...). I've never had a 'luxury' car before and am having a ball with all the gadets.
                                My only gripe so far, the turning circle is rubbish compared to the Subaru.
