If your wanting a daily that your not going to tune than i'd go w/ the r32, as they hold their value incredibly well, when compared w/ the mini. In the end drive both and go w/ what works for you.

If he goes with the new R32 i would say take it DSG is freakin AMMMAZZZZINNNNGGG

And yet your username is noslushbox??

Just teasing...I've driven a few DSG's, and while I can appreciate the technology and usefulness for a DD, it's just not my cup of tea.
