@caseyliss - Why not a TT-RS? I sold my Golf R for about $6K less than I paid after 6 years of ownership and then moved into a TT RS and those are holding their value really well. 1750 imported into USA, 100 more HP, still has 4-seats and is a hatch. Given your low mileage…

@bobwertz I do as well, funnily Kyalami green was a $0 option on builds and it’s the other colors (white, black, grey, red) that cost $600 extra. Of the 47 or so that sold nationwide in 2025, only 5 were green so it’s a pretty low-volume color. Perfect for a sunday-driver (not going to be my daily)
