The Golf R doesn't get max torque until almost 3000 rpms and first gear only goes to 22 mph. The main complaint is that there is no power until you hit 3k and then it all comes and once and it can be hard to regulate. Definitely drive both they feel a lot different despite similar specs on paper. Also remember the Haldex handles like a FWD until the rear drive kicks in so it's all a matter of what you want.
