Golf R superior fact.

[R32UK]

I drove both cars back to back and opted to go with the GTI.  I found it a more entertaining drive and lighter on it's feet - more torque at the lower revs.  With the Revo Stage 1 remap it's plenty fast too. 

Looks wise there is litte in it for me, prefer the rims on the GTI and you can't get an R in Carbon Steel!   

I'm sure a chipped R would be a beast though.  But for that money I would rather a Cayman S.

I imagine the fact that you dont get much wet weather probably helped also

Take money out of the equation and the R is simply a better car, fact. How is this even a discussion!?

because asker owns a gti of course 

But you have neither.
