JohnBryce0712 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Looking at either wrx or golf R as a bit of a performance car splurge. any comments or stories? I'm hearing lots about wrx 17 model good and bad. It is the more recognisable manly car I guess. Golf has about 30 more horse power under the hood and is a pure performer. Both similar pricing when looking at wrx premium and golf R demos maybe still 3k extra for the R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macca101010 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 I have a WRX, has been awesome to own with no issues and always puts a grin on my face when i give it a squirt. I haven't driven a Golf but heard they're sweet! Go with the one you prefer after test driving 😉 Sent from my GT-I9507 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverbak Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 With VW's recent history of emissions cheating & gearbox issues and downright disrespect for their customers, to me, the decision is easy Also, I'm yet to be convinced that a sports car can be front wheel drive only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnBryce0712 Posted June 26, 2017 Author Share Posted June 26, 2017 Isn't the Golf R 4WD? The R kicks in when needed. Still more front wheel biased though. - - - Updated - - - I have a WRX, has been awesome to own with no issues and always puts a grin on my face when i give it a squirt.

Wrx is less refined but more fun I would have to say. Golf is a better daily and understated but it really goes when needed. It's more competitor for sti and focus rs. After coming off an xv it's hard to pass on the subaru all wheel drive system though. Leaning towards to Scooby again bloody hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
