The R32 is indeed a very cool car, but I'd pick the M Coupe over it ANY day. __________________  | | | | | 01-09-2008, 02:22 AM | #3 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2007 Location: SW Florida Posts: 4,275 |

A decent Z3 M Coupe is getting harder to find, and prices may actually be starting to creep up. Definitely a fun car and the S52 is strong sturdy engine though outpowered by the S54. (IMHO)
(my M coupe's in the Photo Gallery)
I'd probably go with the R32 for a Daily driver since you get the AWD and more features. The MKV's are pretty good cars. I got an 07 GTI and have had zero issues with it since I bought it in June. I quit driving VW's back in the early 90's after problems and a$$hole local dealers. | | | | | 01-09-2008, 02:48 AM | #5 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: chicago Posts: 172 |
135
m coupe
mini
r32
warning: opinion ahead
i always thought the r32 was kind of a joke... doesn't stand a chance against proper awd (sub/evo), and it's too heavy and understeer-y for a hatch. if you want a golf, get the gti. drive em first! | | | | | 01-09-2008, 05:12 AM | #6 | | Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2006 Location: G-dale, California Posts: 1,698 |
woah landslide so far for the m coupe lol
i wasnt surprised the m coupe has the same rear suspension as our Tis and very fun cars to drive. BUT i will soon be going to UCLA and the $$$ for fixing or updating a car is out of the question(starving student here we come). I will have enough to buy a car and keep the payments but i wont have the extra cash or time to fix it or mod it. So look at it from that angle too. I think the r32 and 135 will be the best choice for that...my Ti will be my track/fun car. __________________ Live Everyday As If Its Your Last

Before i got the Ti i was thinking of getting a GTI i just couldn't find one in my price range.  But yea GTI's are nice and so are the GLI's. I dunno maybe later i might get either one.  | | | | | 01-10-2008, 10:05 PM | #12 | | Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2006 Location: G-dale, California Posts: 1,698 |
