Z has almost everything over the R32 except low-traction situations.

not a chance. A friend of mine has a r32. Its no where near the standards of a 370z (He even admit it). Our car has more HP, Torque, and weighs less than r32. Now given those variables, how can it be faster than 370z in any possible way? Your friend (or some punk) is just blinded by a ignorance of his ego.

You hit the nail right on the head. This kid is the biggest punk ever and thanks everyone for the responses, it seems quite clear here there is no match against the 370z once again.

My friend has a r32, did a tune, with only an intakd on the car, gained 40hp, and 34torque. The car still isnt giving its full potential from the factory. But again, like somr have said, equal driver, id still take our z in the 1/4.

Fast or not, the R32 isn't sexy like a Z.

If you were a real friend to him, you would get him an intervention. It is obvious when people make wild assertions like these that they are either under the influence of methamphetamine or or gravely mentally ill.

Must be meth; makes him feel like he is faster than he is.

:roflpuke2:

IMO the R32 exhaust definitely sound sexy.

I moved from an R32 VW to the 370z and i'll tell you the 370z is faster in a straight line... and when driven correctly the corners as well. HOWEVER, the R32 is soooooooooo easy to throw through a corner that you get spoiled easily.

So the VW is easy in the corners AWD.

But in a race... the z is just faster.

:happydance:

The old V.W.R32 is not that fast,but the latest Golf R,has almost the same pick up[claimed 0-100km/h in 5.7secs,Top speed 250km/h],with our Z auto,but only a 2L turbo.

Dear God, come on Z owners lets have a bit more confidence. Golf R32 doesn't stand a chance. He is underpowered and overweight bc of the AWD. If you are a competent driver you'll get him just fine. Since you should be doing it on a track with safety personnel on hand, if you want an extra edge, drop the spare and jack but be mindful of the launch.

Mind you, the R32 Golf does not respond well to mods. Not saying they don't put out results when done up but they are reliability nightmares, the car came maxed out the tranny and drivetrain were not meant to handle more. So in the end he has a heavier car with less power and less room to grow and modify. The Z has no similar shortcomings unless your a 7AT owner looking for forced induction.

:iagree:

I hate Golfs. The R32 was a VW fanboy's wet dream... they are heavy, slow compared to other cars with similar power and fugly.

No contest for the Z.
