Default s2000 vs r32

Today after picking up some chick-fil-A i pulled up beside a Volkswagon r32 at a stoplight. He looks over and has his girl in the car with him and then edges up on the light. The light turns green and we go a little bit, Im slowly revving the car up waiting to hear him start to give it juice. I hear him hit the gas and i floored it into the corner, Id say by the time i shifted into third I had him by a carlength and was pulling. He turned off onto a road behind me shortly after I engaged third gear, It was pretty much over by that point anyways.

R32 looks almost exactly like the GTI, imo.

Isn't an R32 also a GTI, but sort of a special edition?

Well, an R32 is like a GTI on roids. It's also all wheel drive, unlike the GTI.

He should've run you from a dig, he gave up all his advantage running from a roll.

They've got a 3.2L v6 that produces 240hp. AWD.

they are also fat. 3200lbs or something. ;o
