[V8] The R32

[Jeremy Ward]

Jeze, sounds like a blast.  Has anyone seen a weight figure on the R32?
I imagine it is just slightly more than my Rabbit GTI was (2000lbs with
me and a full tank.) :-)

But for $30k...?  How much will the RS3 cost when it finds its way to
the States?  Yabba Zabba!

Gents,
	I had the pleasure of Driving the much anticipated VW R32 today.
Our
dealership recived three.  I P.D.I'ed one (which includes a test drive.)
This is a Golf with a 240 HP 3.2 litre VR6 engine all wheel drive.
Basicly,
3.6 v8 power and grip in a MUCH lighter vehicle.  OMG!  If I wasn't such
a
V8 junkie I would have to find a way to own one of these!  If any of you
get
a chance to do a test drive of one, take it, this thing is unbelievable.
On
the other hand, at $30K and change I can believe it.  (Still cheaper
than a
TT!)

P.S.  I know some of you are still waiting on Recall info.  Fret not,
they
are coming.  It has been crazy at work lately!
