After years of waiting, the 2012 Volkswagen Golf R is finally here at Douglas Volkswagen!
Continuing with the R-Line heritage, the 2012 Golf R has a 4MOTION highly advanced four-wheel drive system and a signature dual center exhaust with a unique engine sound. For the first time, the R has a specially tuned turbocharged engine to deliver top performance and fuel efficiency. With all of that grip and acceleration, you will be glad to know that the standard equipped leather seats are as sporty as they look. They’ve got extra-supportive side bolsters that will hug you as tightly as the Golf R hugs curves. They also come with an eight-way adjustability to boot. The dual-zone automatic climate control lets both the driver and passenger adjust to their preferred temperature. The Golf R’s RNS 315 touchscreen navigation not only helps you get to your destination but it also puts music right at your fingertips. So whether you are taking a ride down the shore on the Garden State Parkway or up to the Poconos for a ski trip, the Golf R provides a comfortable, safe, and enjoyable driving experience.
