i go weeks without driving this car - and then a quick zip around the block and i remember it's not only my best car now, but it's probably the best car I've ever owned as an all rounder.
i'd have to drive it back to back w an Mk8 to see if the diff improvements and extra power outweigh that it's just nowhere near as good looking as the Mk7.

MK8 and 8.5 are pretty shit in comparison. At least it is if you pay MSRP at 42k for the GTI and 62k for the Golf R.
The so called benefits of the 8 and 8.5 are near as no difference but you lose a significant step in quality and refinement. The 7 and the 7.5 are the last of the great golfs.
At least my golf was cheap monthly, but it was also CHEAAAAPPP.... drivetrain was thankfully okay, but infotainment, interior materials, even the doors themselves were tinny and hollow. you can tell the cost cutting was rampant.

I say this owning a mk7 TSI and driving a 6MT 7.5 on Ohlins in seattle.
I think we're being a bit dramatic, the mk7 were incredible at 25k USD but not nice enough to miss.
IMO current civic comes close enough

You sound like a man who's ready to for the next step in opulence & luxury. No expense spared. Power. Refinement. *whisper* status..
Accept no substitute, Hobz. Murano.

probably run over those poor Latvian valet boys. i really like those boys, we always have a fun chat and laugh about the sheer amount of idiot women who come to holt. Everyday they see these dumb asses scrub their bumpers against the walls and pillars.

I'm curious what causes the top to fail so notoriously? Nothing money can't fix!

the cost of fixing the top will be higher than the cost of the vehicle. Repairs in the 10-20k range are not unheard of on this car (ive done a lot of research)
Apparently all the hydraulics are super weak and can barely support the closure. Plus nobody makes any aftermarket components for it because why would anyone invest in R&D for this piece of shit, along with numerous sensors and potential leaks and things that could and will go wrong. Plus there is no manual option to fix the top if it fails. It'll turn into a giant wind sail and send spy balloon into orbit.

You keep saying words, but all I'm hearing is "perfect fit for Hobz".
Guaranteed unreliability? 10's of thousands of dollars in repairs of leaks and sensor fail?
Does that remind you of something? A yearning tingle in your pants that you couldn't quite get your finger on, this whole time?!
You want it!!!!!!!

really interested to hear how you like it. this ticks the box for me for EV - interesting, useful design and the range to get to whistler and back. with a livery on the side - no brainer shop vehicle.
my cousin has one of these in London (short wheelbase though). I wish we got that spec here.
