Please don’t ask if it’s available. I will block you. This vehicle is running but needs a serious VW enthusiast. Please inspect photos and I will do my best to answer questions. Should you have true interest please come and view the car and make an offer face to face. The timing chain has not been done. This VW doesn’t burn oil and has only had LIQUI MOLY 5-40 synthetic since I’ve owned it. It also only gets premium fuel. ...
Our Take:
- Rarity and Enthusiast Appeal: The 2008 Volkswagen R32 is a bit of a gem for those in the know. It's one of the last models to feature the beloved naturally aspirated VR6 engine in a Golf chassis. With a unique blend of performance and understated styling, this car often flies under the radar - just ask any VW aficionado.
- Limited Production Run: In 2008, Volkswagen brought only about 5,000 R32s to the North American shores, making it a rare sight on the roads today. This production cap gives it a certain exclusivity you won't find in your everyday GTI. How often do you come across one in the wild?
- Performance Features: The R32 comes with Volkswagen's 4MOTION all-wheel-drive system paired with a 250-horsepower VR6 engine. Despite its automatic transmission, which might disappoint manual purists, the car's DSG gearbox offers quick shifts that keep driving enthusiasts engaged.
- Maintenance Considerations: With over 200,000 miles on the clock, this R32 shows it's been well-used, but regular maintenance like using LIQUI MOLY synthetic oil suggests it's been cared for. Beware: the timing chain hasn't been serviced, which is crucial for long-term reliability - something a potential buyer should factor in before that face-to-face offer.
