yep, *almost* 3200, iirc.

I like the look and idea of the R32. I will probably never personally own a VW or BMW again, though.

I think that the R32 is the car with the sickest exhaust sound and it looks nasty

Also prefer the GTR over the VW. then again....I'm partial to Nissans.
With all the GTR's I was able to see and ride in and race against in Japan....no VW could ever truly live up the the R32's history and reputation.

Nice car though

The R32 weighs 3450 lbs... by no means little. It's also a N/A 3.2 litre V-6. It looks too tall for my taste. The exhaust does sound good though.

We ran one this weekend in at SCCA. The thing just pulls. Allot of fun and the brakes are just awesome! I wish my car came with those brakes.

R32 doesn't have a turbo dude.. and it still pulls like a ****...

I was goign to wait for one before I got my rex.. but I have heard so many bad things about it.. from the europeans (who got them first) that there were too many minor problems.. like electrical stuff.. so I was like screw it.. I need something reliable
