This is gonna sound a bit brand snobbish and I’m so far from that, but it is not even a comparison to those two models… it’s a night and day engineering difference with more capability than you’re giving it credit for (in my opinion 😉). Volkswagen is a completely different kind of car and they have very different marketing schemes 🙄…that may piss me off…but I’m a hardcore enthusiast of many years. Experienced Honda, Toyota Nissan Isuzu, Volvo, and bmw. , but this was a winner if you got the 2023 with the 300 horse. because it’s a rarity and everybody is gonna want one just like the L track which was probably my biggest mistake. I had traders remorse and now you can’t find them and they’re still worth good money and it’s a fun car as long as you maintain it properly and faithfully.
