Some are not agreeing with the Intellichoice award but hot on it’s heels is MotorWeek’s award. Hmm, the R32 must be doing something right..
Volkswagen of America, Inc. announced today that its motorsports-inspired R32 has won the 2008 MotorWeek Drivers’ Choice Award for Best Performance Car. MotorWeek looks at vehicles from a buyer’s point-of-view, and uses trends and innovations to help award their Drivers’ Choice Awards. MotorWeek’s aim is to produce a list of winners that can be used by potential customers as a practical buyers guide.
Born from the original pocket rocket, the R32’s power comes from a 3.2 L narrow angle V6. Offering 250 horsepower and 236 ft.lbs. of torque, the R32 is all muscle. Known for being the ultimate in Volkswagen sports performance, the R32’s 4MOTION all-wheel-drive system ensures dynamic handling, and refined road manners. Volkswagen’s highly acclaimed DSG® transmission, which allows seamless gear changes, helps rocket the R32 from 0 to 60 in 6.5 seconds.
