Not only that, i own an 2021 8R and half of the things he's complaining about were solved with updates in the first year, like the snappyness, the actual Golf R graphic in the menu, there's a shortcut system so you can do things like turn off ESC with like one swipe and a button tap, ect. Neither the 8 or the 8.5R will ever have a perfect infotainment system, but they did solve many problems with updates. The problem for me in this 8.5 is how tacked-on the screen now is, ruins the entire streamlining of the dash which the 8 R has.

Good review......Ive owned the Golf GTI mk2 ,mk4. mk5, mk6 and currently have GTI mk7.5......Thats me done with the golf. Thats a nice Golf R and i have driven the mk8 GTI but for me the 7.5 gti manual is what it was all about...To me, new cars nowadays are too full of unnecessary tech, gizmos, accessories, touch screens, etc and the prices are ridiculous....and when the tech goes bang, repair and replacement costs are extortionate....

I love the blue, and surprisingly I think white also really suits the clean look this car has

HVAC on the screen and haptic touch controls on the steering wheel are a no go for me. They suck. I like Honda's HVAC and steering wheel buttons and knobs.

I am happy with my modified R 7.5 Variant, no Ipad stuck on the dash, electric seat, and manual buttons but digital dash. Seems like VW does not listen to the people.

Welcoming changes to the overall let down that is the mk 8. But wheel cap is very tacky, and the haptic buttons on the steering wheel needs to go. I still think mk 7.5 was the goat of modern golfs.

performance wise, wether straight speed or cornering, this 8,5 is far ahead of the 7,5 its not even close

@@Xzibitfreek everyone knows that these cars got TOTAL CRAP stock breakes and an embarassing stock trim. So who cares , if u like a proper sporty car , u gotta put extra money on aftermarket quality mods, EVERYONE i know have done this in GTI or R. So aestetically speakin' is what remains , and 7.5 is unreachable , far away cooler.
