I am torn between a 2018 GTI Autobahn or a Golf R...both with manual trannies. This car will be used to commute to work and tool around town.
I am posing this to Golf R owners who have experience with both the GTI and Golf R.
Is the Golf R worth the extra cash or not? Whats your reasoning?
Thanks in advance.
Based on your objectives I think you would be satisfied with the GTI but taking both for a test drive would be a good idea. For me the decision wasn't easy, but after test driving the GTI I decided that as a daily driver it was quite adequate. If you plan to do substantial power modifications that would be a good reason to go with the R.
