The comparo with the Evo and STI is a bit misleading. Most of it being in the buyer as well as the overall package. An Evo, while may be less expensive is much less-refined for daily driving and the old EVO was a bit of torture to drive as a daily if you aren't a young tuner kid. In the R32 you are getting a fast car in a tight package that also displays a level of refinement and liveability that a young professional can drive during the week, and then show off a bit on the weekend. Let's not forget about mods etc that would increase performance too. I really think the market is different for the VW vs the Evo and Sti.bosporus season
I agree Jay

and Further, this article compares a naturally aspirated six cyl. with two turbo-charged fours. The super or turbocharged vr6 engine is a beast. whether it makes up for a 50 horse difference I'm not totally sure, but this remains a bit of a mismatched comparison.
