2004 Volkswagen R32

This 2004 Volkswagen R32 all-wheel-drive three-door hatchback is powered by a 3.2-liter V6 paired with a 6-speed manual transaxle. It is a performance-tuned variant of the Mk4 Golf that was originally sold by Stohlman VW Subaru in Virginia and has been in Maryland for the last 10 years. Equipment includes Koenig bucket seats, OZ Aristo 18-inch wheels, a power-operated sunroof, and a Pioneer stereo with a color display. Finished in Deep Blue over a black leather interior, this R32 is now offered with the owner's manual, service records, a CARFAX report, and a clear Maryland title in the seller’s name.

The R32 model came to the United States market in 2004 as a compact three-door hatchback based on the Mk4 Golf with special engineering and unique body treatment. This garage-kept Deep Blue R32 features a power-operated sunroof, aerodynamic front and rear valances, clear side marker lamps, side skirts, a rear spoiler, and bright dual exhaust outlets.

Multi-spoke 18-inch OZ Aristo alloy wheels are wrapped in reportedly new tires.

The cabin is equipped with black leather Koenig sport bucket front and bench rear seats matched to the door panels, dash, carpeting, and floor mats. Amenities include brushed aluminum trim, tinted windows, automatic climate control, a self-dimming rear view mirror, a split-folding rear seat, cruise control, power windows, and dual vanity mirrors. The sound system has been upgraded to a modern Pioneer touchscreen head unit along with an amplifier and replacement speakers.

Instrumentation consists of a 180-mph speedometer, a 7,500-rpm tachometer, and auxiliary gauges for the fuel level and coolant temperature. The digital odometer reads 158K miles. The last mileage figure entered on the CARFAX report in February of 2018 is 134,493 miles.

The 3.2-liter DOHC VR6 V6 was rated at 238 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque when new and has been kept current on required maintenance per the seller. Power is fed to all four wheels via a 6-speed manual transaxle and a 4Motion on-demand all-wheel drive system. Videos of a cold start and the engine revving are provided.

Stopping power comes from power-assisted disc brakes with blue calipers. The car rides on a four-wheel independent suspension. Additional photos showing the underside are available in the gallery to the right.

The owner's manual and service records will go with the vehicle and the tool kit, jack, and other accessories are present. The CARFAX report shows a damage report dated February of 2018 regarding moderate damage to the front and driver's side. The vehicle passed a Maryland emissions inspection in May of 2021.
