Always dreamed of swapping in the J37/SH-AWD from a TL into one of these.

3k over the same sedan seems pretty reasonable to me.

if youre gonna go full retard why not just buy a 30k maserati. It'll sound better than all this trash and you'll trick gold digging whores into thinking you're RICH!!!! (well I guess you have to be in order to keep it on the road)

Quattroportes are slim pickings, and grand tourismos are like $50000. The Fiat ones are suspiciously cheap

Canada must have the cheapest golf R compared to the rest of the world when you consider exchange rates. Nicely priced IMO
Also akrapovic exhaust is a $3k option, cheap!

Si si. I’m still loving herr hitlers box even with all its flaws. Good for a modern car. Great price. Kinda does everything decent enough. Sporty enough for me, luxurious and tech heavy. User interface is crap but you get used to it.

That's dumb. Open diff on a "sporty" fwd is a deal breaker for me. Every time I drove my JCW Mini in the wet I'd light up the inside tire and cringe.
