I have a 2015 Autobahn 2 door. But I really, really want the PP. The brakes, mech diff lock and adaptive suspension alone are worth $6-7k if you did it after the fact. Not bad for a $2k option. Plus the 2016 got a pile of new tech, better head unit with car play, lane assist, auto collision braking, adaptive cruise, auto parking etc, etc.....
Pretty stoked, it's gonna be a long two months. I spec'd out a real oddball car. Every option except leather and DSG in a 2 door. Had to factory order it, as nobody has the car in stock. DSG is quicker, but I still prefer to row my gears. And if you Flash the car to an ungodly HP/Torque number, a clutch is way cheaper than a DSG replacement if something breaks. And that tends to be the weak point on flashed cars.
I always change cars a lot, but this one will likely be a keeper. It is bespoke to what I want, as I usually just grab something sitting on our lot. So I have a feeling this may end up eventually going to stage 3 and getting some Golf R wheels, and likely some other tasteful bits added to it.
