The 2015 Golf R drops into dealer lots this spring, featuring Volkswagen's well-known Direct Shift Gearbox as its only transmission offering. As we reported last week, that dual-clutch-automatic car will retail for $37,415. However, if you prefer to row your own and are willing to wait a bit, you'll save some cash.

In the summer of '15, VW will release the 2016 Golf R. Pricing should carry over for the automatic model, but the manual option becomes available and it'll save you a cool $1100 bucks over the DSG. We expect manual models to be as much as a half-second slower to 60 (we estimate the DSG R should do the deed in 4.7 seconds with launch-control engaged), but, hey, there's often a trade-off when it comes to savings. The Golf R is no exception. The Germans, after all hate exceptions.
