out of ur options hold out for the golf R I'd say, the r32s were cool and all but big fuel and service bills for them.
Golf GTI (new)
Golf R (when it comes out)
Golf R32 (pre-owned)
BMW 3 Series
Other (please suggest in your post)
Well my friends, the time has come...
In the market for an apartment to buy and thought what the hell, I'll throw a new car in while I'm at it. The 2.2 has served me well for the last couple of years but really after something with more performance.
I've thrown up some options which I've been looking into for the last month or so but if you have any more suggestions, let me know. Don't have any particular preferences, except it's gotta be a good few notches above the 2.2 (and hopefully with that cash I can get something!). Also prefer a turbo under the hood. Can be either new or second.
As you can see from my choices, I'm sorta biased towards a Golf... or something European. Not a particular fan of Japanese cars but I can be partial to an S2000.
I'm looking to spend up to $60K (absolutely no more).

Wait around for the Golf R, on paper, it sounds like such a great car, turbo, AWD, heaps of options...
The only issue will be price, don't know if it'll be under 60k, heck a fully loaded GTi pushes 60k lol!!

Renault Megane RS 250 with Cup chassis and 19`s...when it arrives later in the yearshould be priced at high $40k !
I would take a calculated guess and estimate it to be 60K with no options included. Having said, fingers crossed that 19"s/leather seats/sunroof/GPS are included as standard!
EDIT: Just checked out the VW UK site and it looks like those things above are options. I can't believe things like cruise control is still considered an option! Even my SRi came with leather/cruise control/ESP and all that stuff as standard!
