It’s mainly the outdated intro and TV show vibe which I can’t quite define. It may be the colour grading though that seems ok. Oh I’ve seen some glitch transitions, those surely don’t help. And yes, the colour grading is a bit weird, the asphalt and sky have a pink shade a lot of the time.

With the right exhaust and matched to the DSG it does indeed sound great. Unfortunately it is way too thirsty for the performance and expensive to tax (at least in the UK). Slow, heavy and likes a drink. Could be describing myself, to be fair....

@@mikesiegenthaler4224 I do agree and am definitely all about the theatre and driving experience rather than being a 0-60 bore. The problem is that unlike, say, a Subaru Impreza, virtually all of the experience revolves around the exhaust note. The R32 costs nearly £600 a year to tax though and with blobeye Subaru's costing £200 less, with similar mpg's, and now appreciating values as a future classic, I'd say that was a better bet. I can't however see the R32's going up in value.

I have a 130i. It is truly addictive to drive. Mine has LSD, headers (ohhhh the noise!!!), A few M3 bits and some weight loss. It's more of a sportscar than hot hatch IMHO. I also have had a R32 DSG, and currently have a Megane RS250. The Megane is unbelievable around corners and has an amazing chassis. The R32 sound even stock was incredible. One of the best sounding cars ever in stock form.

Spunking a lot of money up the wall for that with next to no sell on value. Besides, you'd be mental to modify a non LSD version to that extent, which puts you back in the £5k/£6k mark. Personally, the R32 Golf is just better in every way. If you want a turbo Civic, wait a few more years and buy an FK2. 310bhp from the factory with the suspension, breaks and looks to go with it.

I wish we had the Renault in the US. But honestly, I wouldn't buy any of these cars at that age. They are too old. European cars become too expensive to maintain after 7-8 years of age. They break more often than Japanese cars do. And European parts and labor costs too much here in the US.

I've had my 130i for over a year now and the only things that I've had to do other than oil changes is spark plugs and coils (cheap, easy, did it myself). It's been plenty reliable. I've had more cosmetic shit to fix than mechanical. Sunroof liner got reupholstered, new gearknob, new steering wheel leather. A-pillar fabric also needs reupholstering. Now the clear coat lacquer is peeling on the front bumper.

I'd have chosen a Volkswagen Golf Edition 30 over the R32, although there is something awesome about a VR6 packed into a medium sized hatchback. The Edition 30 is just that little bit more special being a 30 years of the GTI edition, it comes factory fitted with color coded GTI body kit (rear bumper, front splitter and side skirts), the gorgeous BBS Pescara's and most importantly a slightly larger K04 turbo which will make it respond very well to a remap. But still a very respectable choice.
