Limited Edition 2015 Volkswagen Golf R - Collector’s Model - Limited Production
Number 360 out of one of the first 500 available 2015 Golf R models,
the most powerful production Golf ever offered in the U.S.
This is one of the first 500 Golf R models. I am the original owner.
The topline (mine) Golf R includes the DCC® & Nav and the six-speed DSG® dual-clutch automatic transmission. Painted in Lapiz Blue Metallic and features the 292 horsepower 2.0-liter TSI® engine; 19-inch “Cadiz” aluminum-alloy wheels and summer performance tires; 4Motion® all-wheel drive; Bi-Xenon headlights with LED Daytime Running Lights; DCC® adaptive damping system; Park Distance Control; a navigation system; and the Fender® Premium Audio System.
Includes a numbered (#360) Volkswagen Driver Gear R accessory kit, which consists of:
An exclusive, serialized Volkswagen R watch
A serialized carbon fiber and stainless steel keychain
A serialized and VIN-specific certificate
There are only 500 of these Volkswagen R accessory kits ever made and they are serialized to match the VINs of the Golf R pre-Order vehicles.
With 292 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque from its turbocharged and direct-injection EA888 TSI® engine, the new Golf R has 36 hp and 37 lb-ft more than the previous version. Despite the additional power and torque, the new R model is considerably more fuel-efficient than its predecessor with an EPA estimated highway fuel economy rating of 30 mpg with the six-speed DSG® transmission, up from 27 mpg for the previous, manual-transmission model.
Like all previous Golf R models, the new model transfers its power to the road via a permanent all-wheel-drive system; in this case, the latest version of the 4Motion® system with a fifth-generation Haldex® coupling. To help ensure great chassis dynamics, there’s a new sport suspension, the progressive variable-ratio steering system, and the ESC Sport stability control system, which can now be deactivated for track driving. Other highlights include the DCC adaptive damping system that is standard on the Golf R with DCC & Nav.
The six-speed DSG dual-clutch automatic transmission offers a launch control feature, enabling the car to complete the 0 to 60 mph sprint in just 4.9 seconds. The top track speed is 155 mph.
This car is fully-loaded. There were no additional factory options available at the time of manufacture.
Balance of original 3 year factory warranty included.
IMPORTANT: Only local, in-person sales and payment accepted. I will not ship anywhere. Out-of-Area buyers are welcome to purchase the car but must wait for VW Financial to confirm payment and transfer of registration before I hand over the car.
