I think the GTI is a better bang for the bucks than the R32. That's the reason why R32 is not selling that good nowadays. The DSG is awesome! I don't think buying the R32 is a good idea. The performances are not really impressive for the price difference. The GTI is a lot of fun!
That's just my opinion.

EVO magazine has some very good comments on the DSG. They're one of the few reviewers who don't particularly like it. Basically they loved it in foot-on-the-floor zooming around mode, but around town or in auto mode they found it jerky and that the throttle position was poorly matched to the shift modes. Basically, hard to idle around smoothly without it lunging forward boy racer style at every stop.
I'll see if I can find and scan their commentary.

i think we'll pass on PDK / DSG for our application.
