Fuck Demuro. I like the car.
Didn’t he say it is the best hatch by far and rated it pretty highly ?
His overall doug score is all above the competition, except for rs3, and that is essentially a golf r with more power and badge

But technically not a hatchback because US doesn’t get 3 hatches anymore

same chassis, drivetrain, similar driving characteristics
Edit: idk why I automatically thought rs3 has hatch in US, maybe im accustomed to see current gen a3 hatches lately. Also audi infotainment is more complicated than my yaris

VW is bringing the custom colors to the US market for 2019 R's. Still not sure I'd spend the $2500 doe.

You get purple, I’ll get teal. DFD team cars, it’s perfect.

This color is pretty awesome, though.
if i were to get a mk7.5 R, i wouldn’t get a bland color to begin with.

I saw that green on the freeway this summer. It looks amazing in motion. I'd probably get '91blue i think. Closest to Miami bl00 on the gayman

Id say vw should’ve kept the pretorias for the facelift, it really compliments the car well.

They’ve grown on me but they’re too... unsporty for a “performance” trim car.
I despised them. Now they seem just meh. You're right though, they don't look sporty enough.

$2500 for a paint job that'll get backed into by Abuelita's janky ass minivan?

Perhaps 600$ wrap would be more ideal, and much more color availability as well.

Or the paint that comes with the $40k car to begin with?

Wraps and dips cost thousand(s) anyways. I'd pay the extra and cheap out on the ACC/bigger screen pkg to offset the costs.

$2500 for factory special paint sounding even more palatable.

Im honestly
I wasnt able to have that option when I got mine.... I simply didnt pay a msrp bump. I think they took like 1500 off msrp. So eh, I get you will likely pay full pop on special color.
