Manual golf VS automatic mustang isn't exactly a fair fight

[SeventhArt]

DSG makes a huge difference compared to the manual gearbox...

[Rskitalll]

For the money the Mustang is hard to beat. The V8 sound is unmistakable

[john-martin]

The mustang has 100hp more and a 10 spd auto transmission. Would have been better if the VW had a DSG trans.

No one buys a Mustang for interior quality, space, or interior details. It is the engine. Still miss mine.

[tizodd]

@5:30 It looks like FORD just glued a couple of tablets onto the Mustang dash😂

[muskcoder]

The DSG in the VW 'R' would have been a better choice.

[carloscanales]

I didn't buy a mustang thinking someone was going to sit in the back ! Buy your own!

[zeitgeist]

Wow you have to do a better comparison. First get a better driver for the Golf R if you are going to put a manual against the 10 speed auto Mustang. 16's is atrocious unless you are running in the stratosphere. That is just bad driving. Second comparing a 6 sp manual to 10 speed auto is too huge a difference for any kind of fair comparison. Compare auto to DSG and manual to manual and you will see much closer races.

Next race: Camaro ZL1 10 speed vs Mustang EcoBoost with a manual!

[redtesta]

$46k for a golf. Never thought i would see that.

[garyjinks]

Auto against 6 speed, where is the DSG not a fair race.

[dwarnke]

My bone stock dsg Golf R ran 12.6 @ 108 down here in Phoenix which never gets good air and is at 1700’. How does it lose 4 freaking seconds going to Colorado?

[mboiko]

What's really crazy is that $46K is now considered a "lower" cost car. Compare Consumer Price Inflation/Index before Jan 2020 to today. They are two different worlds. Maybe we should send another $100B to Ukraine and I say this as someone who happens to be 50% Ukranian.
Great job guys...!

The slow mo launch with the Mustang was just beautiful.

[rockstertx]

The 5.0 with a six speed manual gear box is the way to go... fun to drive, fun to wake up the neighbors and reliable all day long... hell it even gets decent mileage.

[tomfromeyer]

The 24 mustang is sharp! Looks great and drives great 💪🏻

[legionmartin]

When I was younger, build quality was not a major concern or care of mine. As I get older, a balance of build quality and performance is something I consider more seriously.

[gregc]

Man y'all making me want to buy another mustang 😅

[SubBro]

Loved that Slow-mo at the beginning of the drag race😍
