I feel like for 90k it should come with a Golf R.
Here's some brand new, undisguised .:R action.

I assume no chance of the TCR in the US. Pity.Gist of the article:
Mk8 GTI: 241 hp, 273 lb-ft
Mk8 GTI TCR: 296 hp, 280 lb-ft
Mk8 R: 328 hp, ??? lb-ft
Mk8 R+: 394 hp, 332 lb-ft // 0-100kph in 3.9s

The Straight Pipes look at the Mk8 GTI virtually.. at about 4:30 they take on the cheesy touch/slider controls...
I've learned to withhold judgement until I see cars in the metal. Hated the look of the G20 3 series when it was fist announced, but having had a chance to see a few in person I've come to see it as an incredibly handsome car.As with most cars this really grew on me. Still not sure how much I like the "touch islands". I feel like it will be a greasy looking, fingerprint ridden mess. I guess ill wait and see!
