There was a good track comparison of a golf R and a GRY on an Aussie YouTube channel. The golf R was faster on the straightaways and the GRY was faster through the twisties.What are your thoughts on the Golf R in comparison to the GRC? Just in case I miss the GRC I've been looking into other options and the Golf R seems to tick most of the boxes. Thoughts?
Mighty Car Mods was the channel for anyone looking for it.There was a good track comparison of a golf R and a GRY on an Aussie YouTube channel. The golf R was faster on the straightaways and the GRY was faster through the twisties.
The golf R will have a better interior and more power, but the GRC will be cheaper, looks better (subjective opinion, the golf R looks to much like a normal GTi), and in the end will be a more reliable car (if kept stock for the most part).
But for tbose who absolutely want a hot hatch and are unable to attain a GRC, the Golf R is the only other AWD option they have. The new CTR looks promising though...
The Golf R to me is just too luxurious, plus the capacitive buttons are awful. The deign is sleek and nice but I like the agressive look of the GRC more. The Golf R is an amazing hatch, especially if you do want AWD over FWD. Obviously if you care about working on it and being cheap to fix and reliable, the GRC is the better choice. However, if you don't care for that and want all out AWD hatch performance, the Golf R is basically the way to go.What are your thoughts on the Golf R in comparison to the GRC?

This is hands down my biggest problem with the Golf R. It doesn't feel like a proper driver's car. It's too refined, too comfy and too nice for a "real sports car" as much as I hate that phrasing. If you want a DD that's able to shift gears and go fast, there probably isn't a better hatchback on the market, though, including the GRC. The GRC will be more of a driver's car, though.That said I find these cars are so refined they lack edge of most competitors
Also pretty sure his Yaris is the version without the diffsThere was a good track comparison of a golf R and a GRY on an Aussie YouTube channel. The golf R was faster on the straightaways and the GRY was faster through the twisties.

Yeah he has the basic version and his since modded it and they modded their Golf R so I'm curious to see modded Golf R vs modded GRYAlso pretty sure his Yaris is the version without the diffs
