Remember VW’s advertising slogans like Fahrvergnugen and Drivers Wanted? The new 2007 Volkswagen Golf R32 bolsters the image of the brand, a brand clearly aimed at people who love to drive. And at first glance it seems Volkswagen is serious about performance by fitting the 2007 Golf R32 with a V6 instead of a four cylinder like those in competing models. Unfortunately, Volkswagen’s 3.2-liter V6 produces about 250 horsepower and 236 lb.-ft. of torque – far shy of what the STI and Evolution are putting to the pavement. But one area where Volkswagen redeems itself is with more luxurious cabin appointments. The 2007 Volkswagen Golf R32 sports leather upholstery, aluminum trim, a ten-speaker stereo system, and a three-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel. Rounding out the R32’s upscale appointments is an automatic climate control system.
