VW R32 or Aspec RSX type S

R32 for sure. I went and checked one out at the stealership a couple days ago, and was quite impressed. Now to the main reason id choose the R32 over the RSX. RSX's are oil burning peices of s***. Sure, they may look cool though. No, this is not an unbiased opinion. I used to have Type-S, previous to the MSP, and the dealership calculated that it burned a quart of oil every 1200 to 1300 miles. Really nice. My first new car and it pisses out oil. Yeah, not all of them had that issue, but quite a large number did and Acura wouldnt do a damn thing about it even after they swore up and down that they would get me a new shortblock. Last Honda i ever buy. Sorry, guys. Had to vent.

OMG! R32 no question! God that is such a nice car. I sat in 2 this past week and I absolutly love them. I can't wait to drive one. Me and my dad are gonna go down to the vw dealer this weekend (upyours) HAHAHAHA it kills my P5! Wait untill they start developing turbos for that thing... whew hold on
 
I would go with the R32, oh wait I did. :D

Anyway, one of the things that really got me going on the car was the exhaust note, right from the factory...simply awesome. Here are a few clips I suggest you listen to.

Also, though this is a fairly heavy car due to its large engine and AWD system, it doesnt feel like it. It is easy to whip around and handles better than my lowered and modified MkIII Jetta VR6. I have also had people that had modified Audi S4s and they have said that this car is more fun to drive right off the showroom floor.

All that and it actually rides nice and is easy as a normal Golf for every day driving. I highly recommend it.

Saw one today and had a little running with it, exhaust note is sick (shocked)
 
R32 by a mile. It's just a lot more car for the money. The RSX A-spec is definitely one of the most over-priced car on the market in my opinion. The best part of the RSX is that EVERYTHING in the interior was positioned PERFECTLY for my body. No other car I've sat in has matched its placement of everything. But to pay 30k for that is asking a lot.
