You can definitely negotiate a larger discount on a Golf R, both in % and a pure $ figure....
As for the R being overpriced... I disagree. Compared to the GTI, GTD, or its sister cars such as the S3, TT-S etc, it's a relative bargain.

Its all about justifying your choice of car to yourself and then seeking others to agree. We probably all do it.
If you buy a 77 TSI when you should have bought an R, you might have some regrets.

Amusing thread.
I had a mate who bought a brand new automatic BMW 318is back in 1998 when he could have bought an M3 new.
10 years and at least $150,000 - $200,000 on mods later (on top of the purchase price of $75,000 AUD in 1998 ) he has a dated car that isn't road registerable and has literally spent more time in workshops than generating friction on bitumen. An M3 would have been a much better buy in the first place.
It's a slippery, expensive and frustrating slope and I learnt a valuable lesson from his experience - you're better off buying the car you want in the first place, than purchasing a lower model and trying to upgrade it to the same status.
I'm not criticising people who take their cars to tuners because they desire more performance, but if you want R performance, buy an R.
100-150K on mods... Wow! Do you know what was done to it?
True.....I got done for going 65 on a 60 on a four lane road at 12.30 at night with no cars on the road, if you head out of the city u can find small single lane roads with speed limit of 110

Know what you mean, our law enforcers are pretty tough, They have all the goodies like point to point speed detection etc. This Christmas, they are driving HSV Clubbies on the highways, what a waste.
I was in Melbourne earlier this year and thought the roads were far better than the crap we have here, to be fair a bigger area to cover.
Can't agree with you about more power being a waste, that's why car makers don't just make a "one size fits all" model
