Golf R vs WRX vs Evo vs Megane RS250

[team_v]

There are no VW dealers in Canberra? Who did I give my deposit to?

The ACT and surrounding region also has some very nice paved roads for having fun on (Cotter/Tidbinbilla region, coastal roads etc), so I think there's plenty of opportunity to use the 188kw to its potential.

And how often do you drive on these roads in these conditions?
It does get cold in Canberra but the roads have never frozen over with a layer of ice on top of them when i have been there.

There are roads in Canberra (and surrounds) notorious for being icy in winter... I can attest to that!

Gen 4 > Gen 2. But perhaps Guy could chime in.

You can't fit the switch to Gen 4 can you?

The Golf R is a great car thats been detuned for our *****ty Australian roads. Cant you just leave it as that?

[G-rig]

The GTI feels faster which could br half the fun (especially after a retune), and not hard to add an exhaust if you want more noise.

Always something faster around, you could be in a plane and it doesn't feel fast.

Good point, I don't know why you'd buy a tig if you didn't think AWD was worthwhile.

Thanks for the reply team_v. So with that guys, since team_v has clarified that he didn't buy the Tiguan in some belief that it is better than a GTI or R for performance, lets put this Tiguan vs GTI/R stuff to bed again

[team_v]

No worries Coreying.

The Audi S3 comes with Haldex Gen 4 too, does that mean it's not a torsion system, or were you referring to other Audis?

[Corey_R]

I presume he means not the A3/S3/TT series as they're all using Haldex too.
