Interesting post for sure...not that anyone is thinking about resale already, but is it a fair assumption that the Type R will have better resale value vs the Type S? Even thought both are being produced in decent quantities now?
Nice to hear that you get used to it. I did a quick search of new Golf R's on autotrader.ca and there are well over 300 right now, some with some pretty good deals off MSRP. But the heart wants the ITS :).
Thanks for the info, super interesting...I would be open to white and grey as well, but I have never been a fan of the red interior, so it really limits my choice if I want an ITS. I think I might just see what the situation is like in 6 months from now...my backup plan is a Golf R, but really...
I got a disappointing message from my dealer yesterday saying that my first colour choice (Silver) was not an option for ordering, but all the other colours were available to place an actual order. Does that make sense to you? I am still about a year away from relocating back to Canada/Vanc...

Interestingly, there are a few examples of cars in Canada that are bargains compared to the US. I was looking at ordering a brand new cayman GTS 4.0 a few months ago (I missed out, not taking orders anymore) and it was a huge price advantage vs the US. IIRC, MSRP was under $100k CDN.
Amazing stable, congratulations...out of curiosity, how would you rate/rank the manual transmissions across the 3 cars? I am assuming the S2K has the best one?
Thanks all for your comments...I know forum members can't make the decision for me, but it is great to see a wide range of ages enjoying this amazing car. Looking forward to learning as much as I can until I get the car next year :).
