Big fan of your channel for the great honest reviews. Being in the USA we do not get all the cars nor options on the cars here that Europe gets but find them interesting. Thank you for the fantastic content for all of us to enjoy!
@@keytothegate68 Just picked up Golf R last week with the 6 speed. People talk bad about the manual but I do not like the DSG. The DSG is faster but not all about speed.
Does the 20th anniversary come with DCC standard in Germany or is it optional? and does the regular golf -r come also with DCC along with the performance package or is it a separate option?
VW seems to have cut corners in the weirdest ways with this new gen Golf. I have a MK7 and watching this vid is the first time I noticed the new Golfs have exposed keyholes, no plastic cover to clean that up like the MK7 did? I guess the prop rod under the hood might save some small change, but a separate plastic cover for the keyhole??
The stability at high speed is very good and the brakes are awesome. You can change from sport modus to comfort or the nurnburgring. Then the suspension very stable but comfortable and the shifts of the gearbox very fast and short.
@@ReconRangersPasukanKhusus Sadly, the days of the ICE car are over. 2024 Model 3 Performance (after federal EV rebate) costs about the same as a 2024 Golf R and would destroy the Golf R on public roads and on race tracks.
a car for the forza/gran turismo guys.. RPM display with progressive yellow/red zones... when DSG is doing everything cmon... stop joking. . at least is not a full blown gamer environment with LED stripes like in the new mercedes models. .
Nothing can compare to the sound of both the R32 and R36, pure heaven. However, I'd take a mk 8 any day.
I've watched a ton of review videos. Yours is so far the best and more enjoyable to watch! Thanks ;)
The most impressive feature of this is the passenger 😳. 😊

However, this time the manual Golf R is available only in the U.S. not in Europe and not even in Canada.

DCC is a seperate option. I've ordered the PP back in Jan 22, and it doesn't come with DCC :(
Thomas, how would you compare/contrast this 3rd gen Golf R with the Porsche Macan (T or S) that you've also driven?

I believe 034 Motorsports has replacement for that prop rod to a actual piston.
@@maveric0738 Fitting that invalidates the warranty, and the rod fouls on the coolant expansion tank...............
There is no question the MK4 R32 hands down. I do like this new MK8 R.
The only thing better would be a 2 door Golf R .
How stable is the car at 250 km/h?

Nothing can beat the 1980s vw golf 2 which makes 1300hp
😅
