I had a 2017 golf r stage 2 tune and dsg. With APR all aftermarket parts and IE downpipe. That car was insane and could hunt down way more expensive cars and take off against them. Loved in minnesota winters as well was like a mini tank going thought snow. Dam I miss that car

The build quality of the Golf R is right up there with the more expensive European brands like BMW, Audi and Porsche

The Akrapovic exhaust is part of a $3,700 Euro upgrade that includes the seats. I shopped the WV R (2024) against a Mercedes GLA45 (2021) and ended up going with the GLA for the engine and drivetrain (it's a beast!). Great review as always!

We need driving experience review as well. It’s a pleasure listening to you

Looks like an Akropovic exhaust, that would explain the premium quality.

I sold my Mustang because seems V8 felt very old school. This car is so much better at many levels.

The GTI and R are some of the funnest cars I’ve ever driven, I really wish we have more hot hatches available in the US.

the best car channel on the internet. Before you buy a car listen to his review. This will change your perspective.
