Celica Forums General Discussion General R32

I looking to buy a car. For sometime now. And i have post some questions about several cars already. Ijust want it to know what do you guys think about the vw R32

very neat car...i like it

R32 is a nice car but I would get an EVO MR or STI instead.

looks good... its pretty fast too...

g35 is nicer Imo

i checked one out..very nice. but for the money you have many options...make sure you check them all out

Nice car , pricey though, think about it

better than a celica for sure, get it...

yeah...but the price is a bit high. i'd rather get a G35c.

there sweet little cars. I love the looks. Arnt they hard to find though?

its nice, but not very fast. for how much it is.

very nice and very fast
for that price however you might as well get a 350z
or an EVO

it's actually pretty nice...but yeah, i'd still pick quite a few other cars over it though, because i like a good overall package. G35c, IS300, s2000, and evo is what i'd get before that.

yup only 3000 in the US this year...

lol theres 2 forsale at the vdub dealership where im at in maryland, a sick lookin blue color and i think the other one is yellow, and theres already a hot ass bitch with a bright blue one...dunno not too rare around here

They are very nice cars. If you're looking for a fast car that also offers a ton of space, that is it.

Not a fan of VW due to their reliability issues. You'd be better off looking elsewhere IMO.

mos def, my friend has a GTI 1.8T...hes late for work atleast twice a month because his shits got issues

I knew someone (friend of the family) that bought one brand new from the dealership a year or so back. Had nothing but trouble with it, and the dealership was more reluctant to fix anything than a Toyota dealership.

Problems ranged from issues with the clutch/transmission, all the way to the alarm arming and disarming itself due to a faulty electrical system. A year later, $6000+ in repairs (most of which were under warranty), they finally got a lawyer and sorted everything out.

The R32 is an awesome car, go for it

Thought this thread was about the Skyline GTR 32...

The GTI platform is a very light car, so don't be fooled by the horses (240 I believe), this thing'll take off!!! VW's are also notorious for great low end torque. My VW Cabrio has a troque peak of 120 lb-ft at 2600rpms, although it's power peak is 115 at 6200 rpms (redline) and the auto in the car shifts at 5600.

yup the car looks slow but can hold its own on a track. the low end torque and suspension set up stock makes it a demon on corners

i thought the same after reading the title

I acutally talked to a vw dealer (gf was getting her jetta serviced) and he took us for a test drive. VERY NICE CAR 240hp awd not sure about torque, but we were taking turns at incrediable speeds. This is a very cool car. And from what he said only 5000 were released in the US so if you want to be unique this would be a good choice. Hopefully he wasn't just trying to get me to buy one. Oh well the GTS is more me anyways. Good luck buying

Get a used 1.8 Turbo, and spend the extra cash on tuning that instead. You'll get a quicker car. If that's what your after.

not a fan of the vw. and you can defintly get a better car for it's price. just watched redline tv and i guess sum company in canada has a 500 hp twin Turbo r32. so go for it if you want. frankly i hate the styling of it and the clutch/ tranny sux for vw's. but it's your choise you could end up lovin it
