Used Volkswagen Golf R for sale in Riverside, CA

Although the car we wanted didnt work out, the customer service was excellent. MARCUS is a STAR! He should be in management. I have brought many mercedes in the past. Carmax is turning the tide when it comes to purchasing vehicles. The best thing to do when you buy any car is to take it to another mechanic, and then bring it back to the place to be fixed within the warranty period. The Truck I purchased from them a year ago had a few issues but they did take care of it and I've not have any problems since. Carmax has set the bar high for purchasing returning and anything to do with cars. BRAVO!

Are you having a midlife crisis? Do you wish you could have a fun, tasteful and not over the top hot hatch? Then the Golf R might be the car you are looking for! This car is not only a top tier Volkswagen, it is also very sporty. While it isn't exactly the fastest of the pack, it is still more then capable of bring a smile to your face. Next year marks the 8th generation of Golf's being released here in the USA and it is clear that they have the recipe for success down. If a hot hatch is what you are looking for, then I would highly recommend looking into the Golf R or GTI.

Nate is an awesome Sales Rep he showed us so many vehicles and when we didn’t qualify for the truck we wanted he was very nice to show us around a truck our budget very helpful. Anthony was also very helpful getting us situated very fast and easy

I have owned six Audi TTs (all three generations) and loved them all, but I’ve always lusted after the TTS because of its more powerful engine. While the DSG with paddle shifters on the TT is lightning fast and fun, it still isn’t as fun as manual transmission in my opinion. And there’s no way I can afford the TTS, so I opted for a 2019 VW Golf R in one of the 40 special-order Spektrum colors. The four-month wait was worth it. Besides getting the same engine as the TTS, I got a car in a color I wanted with manual transmission and with several safety features not offered on the TT. The adaptive cruise control is great, and the lane warning system notifies you but gently tugging the wheel back in the correct lane but without the annoying chimes and buzzers that many other cars use. This is not your grandfather’s Golf; it’s a stylish all-wheel-drive rocket. I much prefer the understated design to that of the Honda Civic Type R, Subaru WRX STI and Ford Focus RX, which are great if you’re 16 but a tad too showy for someone like me (definitely not 16). At the same time, the design is anything but boring with dual chrome exhausts, special body molding, and aggressive LED headlights. Everything about the R feels tight and right: steering, clutch, shifter, breaks. And then there’s the power; let’s just say it’s more than ample. But not too thirsty as I’m averaging 29 MPH combined highway and city. In my experience, there’s virtually no turbo lag as long as I downshift appropriately. The large touchscreen is better and more intuitive than anything I’ve used before, including our other car, a 2018 Subaru Forester. Seats are comfortable and supportive. There’s ample storage for me, but remember, I’m coming from a TT. I love the car and can’t help grinning every time I get in it. PROs: • Design and availability of 40 colors • Availability of a manual transmission • TTS engine for about $10K less • Comfortable and practical cabin with intuitive controls CONs: • Because Audi/VW’s direct shift gearbox is so good, the manual is a tad slower • Side mirrors do not automatically dim when there’s a car behind with brights on (the rearview mirror does) • Only one USB port and the placement is really awkward and hard to get to Would I buy it again? In a heartbeat.

Anthony and Wesley did great in making sure I got what I wanted for my trad in and drive off in the vehicle I wanted. Thanks fellas!

We owned a 2008 R32 that we loved and thought we would keep forever (10 yrs old and only 40K mi) but an accident totaled the car and we needed new wheels. Contrary to all the stories that you hear about VW reliability, our experience was that our R32 was only back to the dealership for fluid changes - zero other issues. My wife loved the compact size of the R32 (which was her daily driver) so there wasn't much question that we would go with the updated Golf R and have not been disappointed 2 years later. The improvements from the R32 to the Golf R are significant including improved handling, smoother DSG, significantly quicker, much better ride (which is adjustable - 3 settings) and a much tighter body structure. The only letdown is that it doesn't have that mesmerizing growl of the R32's VR6. Also I still don't understand why VW refuses to offer a sunroof on the R. Otherwise it's superior in about every other way. We've yet to be back to the dealership at all (doing oil changes myself) so it's been rock solid reliable so far. A little pricey - yes - but we think definitely worth it. My son liked it so much that he bought a 2019 GTI (he couldn't afford a R) that's been great for him too.

This car is awesome. Sporty, high quality, comfortable, and a blast to drive. Big smile every time I get in it. Best car I have ever owned.

This car has available adaptive suspension which makes the ride smooth when you want it, and stiff when you need it. The all-wheel-drive system is seamless and does not significantly impact the fuel economy due to its automatic front bias when the rear wheels are not needed. Handling is very good, and the electronics are top-notch in the class.

Fanstastic car, superbly well made, solid, fit and finish is superb, is super QUICK, handles like it's on rails, fantastic brakes, and steering, superbly comfortable supportive, no back aches seats for long 6 hour drives. great highway car, and still whip it around locally. It's a step above the GTI, bigger tires, the 4 motion gives extra grip, and much more powerful, SUPER QUICK, I had 2 GTI's that where great, this is much better GTI's had no issues lots of fun also, Golf R is a step UP

I have had it less than one week but the manual transmission is more sophisticated that that of my previously owned WRX. I also appreciate the safety features, and since it is winter in WI, the heated seats.

This car is just outstanding.it meets all my requirements.mpg is good and this car is a super preformer.interior design is good and it looks class on the outside.auto gear box is also amazing.

The Golf R is an amazing vehicle. 300hp, all wheel drive, active suspension, European quality (the Rs are made in Germany). More than I expected or hoped for when I bought. The only issue I have is slight wind noise at the drivers door in some wind conditions.

As soon as i called they picked up. Ceasar was professional and had a decent knowledge in regards to Manual vehicles. They were quick to answer my questions and were very respectful. I recommend this dealership if you want a good priced deal.

My criteria for a car was simple.... all wheel drive, manual transmission, and good performance. I've owned a number of got hatches but I'll go the distance and say this is my favorite. It drives like yours expect a German car should.... well mannered, quiet, planted, and reasonably quick. Interior is excellent and honestly I can say that domestic cars have a LONG way to go before they hit this quality. Really looking forward to having this car for years to come.

Fast, efficient, near luxury interior. Comfortable, agile nimble. 19” rims 235/35/19 continentals. Black leather interior. Premium Finder 9 speaker stereo system. What more can I say. Oh wait, did I mention all wheel drive. That too.

I drove two GTI's before when I decided to upgrade to a Golf R last year, and I have no regrets. Except for a few glitches, the car performs extremely well and can be available with a number of high tech options. The price may be on the high side, but I think it's worth every penny of it. I will not hesitate to recommend it to those who are looking to a vehicle which combines performances with good road manners.

Huge VW fan but I am also fair. By far its one of the best vehicles VW has created. I've owned an R32 and nothing beats a VR6 engine, however this little 4 banger is the real deal. With a push of a button you go from a daily commuter to an all out contender on the track. Someone please show me a better sounding 4 cylinder.

I went in to look at a used car and ended up purchasing it that day. The sales person (David A.) and sales manager (Ryan) were very nice and helpful. There were some issues with the car that they made sure were taken care of. I appreciate their time and efforts to make things right. Thanks guys! One thing I will mention is that the car only came with an ignition key, but no fob. I didn't realize this when I bought it because it was given to me with the key in the ignition, so I only realized when I got home. I did end up getting a key for a reasonable price (Ryan helped with that), but I would make sure the car has proper keys when you buy it. I've purchased several cars, and never had this issue, so I didn't think about bringing it up during the purchasing process. Since keys are ridiculously expensive, I would definitely double check as it wasn't brought up to me.

Very happy with the blend of performance, comfort, and fit+finish. This is my first VW in about 20 years and I'm glad to be back.
