Do I Regret Buying A New Volkswagen Golf R?

Just bought one in March 2024 under sticker price. Coming from a 2020 Dodge Challenger Scatpack. Wanted another Dodge but they went crazy with prices . Surprisingly this car is as fast as my scatpack plus it has 4 doors and all wheel drive. Handles so much better than the scatpack. Only thing not wild about is the infotainment center and haptic buttons. getting use to it. Nice that since I bought this car in March have only seen one other Golf R. Love having a car that is not at every corner. I think maintenance will be a little higher.You can tell the difference in quality of a German car. Happy so far that I bought this car

Fair assessment! I’ve owned mine for nearly 6 months and I couldn’t be happier. I opted for the DSG for the performance and because I live in a high traffic area in Virginia. The way the DSG fires off shifts under heavy throttle is amazing! Not sure about your area, but in my area Golf R’s are extremely rare since we hardly ever see snow. So Civic Type Rs, GTIs and Veloster Ns are a dime a dozen in the area. It does get annoying sometimes when you pull up to C&C and people always ask if it’s a GTI and you have to explain to them what the car is. 😒

I’ve had a MK7 Golf R manual as my daily since 2018. It’s been a great do-it-all car for me. Fun with the short wheelbase, manual, and power level. Super practical and comfortable. The interior quality is excellent and has held up well. I actually prefer the leather quality over the BMW Dakota and Vernasca leather. Biggest gripe I have is no memory seats on the MK7 and 7.5. That annoys me as a manual transmission driver. Thought about upgrading to a MK8 but mine’s paid off and still under an extended warranty. Looks like a MK8 won’t be in the cards for me as I think this is the last year for the manual.

That surprised me on the memory seats. You would think they have them. Your review is spot on! Thanks for sharing.

I think the underlying issue is it sucks to be a car enthusiast for the last 3 years. Wanting to play with exciting cars but having to travel for a deal only to play games with dealers and markups. While dealers have always played games - its gotten so bad. It doesnt make you feel good to buy cars and like you said - if you have to unload a lot of money just to find YOUR deal it creates a bias against the car itself I think. At least for me, when I stepped back and wondered why I actually didnt like a car - it came down to the MSRP increase and dealer games. I wanted a GOLF R so bad, in the midwest they had 10k MIN markups for so long, even if they sat. I tried to get a dealer to remove one and they laughed in my face while emailing me for weeks asking if I found something else (which I finally got sick of an emailed them a pic my CT4-V BW). Sadly, while i LOVED the Blackwing it had electrical gremlins and with the reports of the GOLF R having issues its kind of turned me off (ie-steering wheel replacement/infotainment). The other part for me, trade in prices have sunk - Im curious what your current trade in offer would be or perhaps its just a midwest thing.

[@Gonin60]

Yep you are spot on!

[@SkinnySkates]

My local dealership doesn’t let anyone test drive R’s. They only let people test drive GTIs. Will that still give me a real good idea of what I’ll get in an R? Or are they night/day difference?

It will give you a good idea but shifter feel, power feel, and AWD vs fwd will all feel different.

You're definitely right about the car market cooling down. The value I got trading in my Camaro was a lot lower than what it was going for last summer. I don't know what the exact value is today, as the deal was made back in January for the MX-5, but I'm sure it's not that different. Luckily, the trade-in value more than covered the cost of the new car (which I got at invoice, plus an additional $500 off for a Mazda loyalty discount), so not only did I not have to pay any tax, I'm getting a check back from the dealership for the difference in value between the cars.

Hey you did great! So you got it for MSRP or under?

So may hold onto it but just starting to do research and think a hot hatch would be a good choice.

[@Gonin60]

@@dychejs you weren’t pushy at all man! I hear you on lower payments and insurance. So it likes like you want something fun but perhaps cheaper. I think a GTI is an awesome choice. Fun, good power, better luxury than the ford. Gas milage will be amazing. I suggest you drive one and play around with the infotainment. So many hate the infotainment on the mk8. I actually really like it. If you do go check one out try doing it at night. Some of the buttons don’t light up like volume etc. I wouldn’t pay more for the Harmon Kardon sound system. It’s okay imo. If you are getting an auto they are amazing. The GTI in manual I have seen several have the small issue of the shifter popping off. I think the feel of the manual in the golf r is better than the GTI. Throw an intake on them and you will get a ton of turbo sounds. If buying an MK8 GTI at sticker. I know a lot of dealers have deals on them. If you’re an auto guy and just want even more luxury I would also cross shop a Mazda turbo 3 hatch.
