not to mention that a simple $600 tune will get you close to 400 hp in the normal Golf R...

You mean that with them being able to spoof the dongle, they can theoretically send data into your ecu and also cause mischief... it always works both ways... you can't moniter data without being able to send data back...

Or if you want a SUV,

Or if Wagons are your thing,
