    VW responded to what customers like. The Pretoria wheels are iconic to the the Golf R. I have a 7.5 R and although I like the those wheels the Pretorias on the Mk7 look much much better. I don't like the black paint that has been the trend on alloy wheels. The Prets are all one color, looks much cleaner. Love the look of Prets on the Mk8.

      Thanks for the comment and insight. Iconic is a great word to describe the Pretoria wheels. They definitely stand out on a GolfR. Something about them.
      Thanks again.

    This is more like a semi luxury performance hatch for a well to do 50 year old who doesn’t want a BMW or Porsche vibe.

    You'd love mine, manual with a golf ball BFI shifter, I've done a ton of mods making it oem plus. Truly an amazing vehicle. We'll see how long my stock clutch lasts with the APR high torque 93 octane stage I tune.

    The Pretoria are neither outdated or cool , there are classic. Is the GTI enough for the average Jo? Probably yes , if you dont live in a snowy region or take a full specs GTI (resale value).

      Thanks for watching and for your insight on the Pretoria wheels. You make a great point. Here’s another question, what is Bret Harts greatest match of all time? There is only one correct answer. :)

    I traded in my 2018 6 spd Golf R for the last 6 spd (2024 Golf R). I have the Pretoria rims (like my 2018 and love them). I love my new one! Not sure what all the negativity is about but I love it! Have seen some videos on the 2025 and I’m not impressed with some of those changes. Infotainment looks like an after thought on it; R badge on the door…ugh and illuminating the logo is just cheesy. Nevermind the fact that it only comes in automatic….sad!!!

    • @HoodSlappersOfficial
      @HoodSlappersOfficial  25 дней назад +1

      Thanks for your thoughts on the Golf R. The 2025 will be interesting. We will have to see it first before making a full judgement. Having no manual option is very sad. Hopefully it’ll be made up for in other ways.
      Thanks for watching.

    The Protoria wheels might work if they are finished in black. As is they look dated, and VW should have kept the wheels they had on the 2023s. They are switching to new forged wheel in 2025 which also looks best in black.
    And you said Mythos perfectly. It’s called (me-thos). Greek word for myth.

    • @HoodSlappersOfficial
      @HoodSlappersOfficial  Месяц назад +2

      Thanks for sharing your thoughts. We would agree with you. We feel maybe VW had a surplus of extra Pretoria wheels and had to find a way to get rid of them.
      Thanks for sharing and for the clarification on the name. :) Have a great weekend!

    It's a great car. A bit overpriced as with most cars and this should be a 40k max car.
