    One of those people who bought an R instead of a GTI because they drive at 10/10ths on public roads...

    If it had black Talledega's then I'm pretty sure I've met the guy in the white one. He traded up from his MkV GTI

    Were they driven by the same driver?
    If not, any direct performance comparisons are not worth the paper they are written on.

    even better, the R is 19sec faster than a 2000 Exige, and 9 seconds faster than an 04 Exige round Nordschleife!
