2004 Volkswagen

Golf R32



What We Like

Exclusivity, all-wheel drive, a manual gearbox, and a howling naturally aspirated engine may all seemingly describe an exotic vehicle, however these characteristics also embody the 2004 Golf R32. Of the 5,000 Mk4 R32s built for the US market, only 150 were finished in Tornado Red with partial-cloth seats, making the car offered here the rarest specification of all. Additionally, this R32 appears quite clean throughout and features some high-quality upgrades. Values have steadily increased as enthusiasts have rediscovered this great hot-hatch. With its enticing mix of timeless styling, performance, limited numbers, and truly unique sound, it’s easy to see why.

Seller Information

Vehicle History & Overview

This VW R32 was acquired by the seller in August 2019 and approximately 5,000 of the 148,400 miles shown have been added since. Extensive Volkswagen dealership service records are reported under the original owner as part of the three-owner Carfax report. The seller was advised by the prior owner the rear bumper cover was replaced, which is reflected in the Carfax report. The seller notes some choice upgrades, including KW coilover suspension, Forge Motorsports intake, C2 tune, HPA short shifter, European headlight switch, and 20th Anniversary red-stitched seat-belts.

For many years the US was denied the hottest versions of Volkswagen's venerable Golf but that all changed in a big way when the 2004 Volkswagen Golf R32 was released. Featuring an enlarged 3.2L version of Volkswagen's unique VR6 developing 240 horsepower, a 6-speed manual transmission, Haldex-based 4Motion all-wheel-drive, and a throaty exhaust, the car was an instant hit with enthusiasts. Supportive Konig heated sport seats, upgraded brushed aluminum interior trim, and seating for four added to an already appealing package. Only 5,000 were made for the US market and Tornado Red, the color seen here, is the least common.
