Not putting down the car.. But the VW Golf R is a spiffed up VW Golf, no matter how you wanna put it. Also the thing about these cars, along with the Mazdaspeeds, they're not as highly sought after as STI's and Evo's. So you'll have one heck of a time trying to sell it.. I can only see people buying this car if they specifically wanted this exact car for whatever personal reasons.
I gotta side with the people saying for the R's 40k price tag, there are many better choices..
Bentley to BMW is a whole different comparison. Such a big price gap, not to mention the prestige. By your logic, why stop there? A Hyundai Sonata now has leather, heated seats, sunroof, back up cam, all the bells and whistles too.
