awww no r32

[rogue]

awwww poor VW fans no R32 ever gonna be in Canada. The 5 km crash test didnt pass so they gave up on bringing the fastes vw ever to Canada. We never get anything good dammit.

[sxtasy]

yah, canada gets screwed again. I think I saw that car on super tuner, looked pretty dam sweet

:guns: :guns: :guns:

Ah well, WRX is a better buy anyway :burnout:

[itsnotaDUB]

i could have told you that we wouldnt have got it. they said all along that the bumpers wouldnt pass. never get anything good?, go to a dub dealer and look at the new phaeton W12 thats a good car for only $128,000

[hjr]

its too bad, but im not sure if it would have sold as well as say a STi or Evo which is comperably priced.

:banghead::banghead: :banghead: Damn Canada!!!

R32 is such a nice car

[Zephyr]

its comming summer for US or was it this winter.... i dunno im glad to be in the states...

i heard the testing numbers r off cuz the car used was in the LA international auto show and a buncha morons broke the shifter and clutch so it was handling really bad...

[Hollywood]

Too bad it's a cool car....a little heavy though.

[sputnik]

R32 is a nice car... just WAY to damned expensive

[CalgaryB5]

I test-drove a UK version R32 in HK. Which is one of the five available in HK. That thing will make you piss in your pants. :drool:

Sadly, like Rogue said, due to bumper regulations in Canada it is not going to be offered for sale. But there is one R32 in Canada already - but it's owned by HPA Motorsports in Langley, British Columbia. They developed a twin-turbo set-up for it. 0-60 in 3.2 seconds and a quarter mile of 11.4 seconds @ 121 mph.

Check it out (http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=1016160)

The MK5 R32 may be available in Canada however when it's launched in a few years. So far it's been said that it will develop in the neighborhood of 300bhp, but I guess we'll have to wait and see.

[D'z Nutz]

How much where they expected to retail for (in Canadian)?

[VWbloke]

They're supposedly going to run $30,000 U.S. so I would reckon mid-forties for Canada.

[itsnotaDUB]

to bad the MK5's are so ugly

The only golf I would ever seriously consider owning.

isnt canada more than 5km/h? lol, i swear i was going a little faster in my car during that one solo2 at racecity, oooooooooooooooooooooooops.

i swear vw copied my car by making an r32, from the outside anyway.

[littledan]

us is 5mph.. canada is 10 kph.. so we get fucked because of 2 kph!

ahahah, if that was an r32, there would be two problems:

cracked bumper, and slower time. :rofl:

Or maybe you copied the R32 ;)
:rofl:

[maximus]

Defintely sad that it's not coming. It would have impressed a lot of non-vw enthusiasts thats for sure.

I love the STi but if this came I would have been torn.

[max_boost]

Very beautiful car, but I thought the golf design was due for an update next year?

[bart]

the 5th gen are already for sale in germany. we dont get them here until about another year.

[ZorroAMG]

Pics of Gen 5?

[max_boost]

The 5th generation Golf looks real nice. They have pictures and info on www.volkswagen.de but it is rather difficult to navigate around in German
