Have a Lagonda V12. Also, I did nothing to antagonize the FP'ers.

/I lied

But... but... I could get a beat-to-hell 10-year-old AMG RS Porsche M Turbo whatever that has had no maintenance and that I can't afford to actually fix, own, and maintain for the same price as this brand-new car!

VW enthusiasts are butthurt about non-enthusiasts giving the new Golf R shit.

Gotcha. I don't frequent the FP more than once or twice a day. Looks exactly like what I'll be needing in a few years when they come off of lease duty

Bingo. You can pick on up after someone else spends close to $40k on it.

I'm going to laugh when the car is actually nannied to hell and can't hold a candle to the STi.

I'd still prefer a 1st/2nd gen R32 over a Golf R... The 2.0T just doesn't sound as lovely as the VR6! (Not to mention they're both cheaper)

enthusiasts or fanboys?

Non-enthusiasts as in non-VW-enthusiasts? Just trying to figure the level of butthurt. I guess I could go read it *shudders*.

D. all of the above

Oh right. Well the fanbois are seeing this as the second coming of Christ but everyone else is comparing this to the STi or what-have-you.

Hmm, that does sound important. Let me know if it's the Christ thing, I'll pay closer attention.

I like the first gen R32, but I'd never take a 2nd gen over my Golf R.

And I'd never take an Evo X or STI over my Golf R either. I did it once and I'd do it again.
