The Golf R will not have the driving dynamics of the M235i. If history repeats itself with VW.

Owned VW's most of my life. They're great commuter cars and give you that feel good sportiness to them and yes, they can somewhat handle at certain speeds and be fun, but that's about it.

Unless you sink money to get a proper LSD and upgrade suspension components, it won't give you the same thrills as a rwd BMW, especially when comparing to a M performance or full M car.
