The feisty 2017 Volkswagen Golf R ($39,375) sports a turbocharged 16-valve inline-four capable of 292 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque. Car and Driver made the zero to 60 run in 5.0 seconds, and clocked the quarter mile in 13.7 seconds with a top speed of 150 miles per hour in this hatch. Clearly, speed is no problem for this model. Speeding tickets, on the other hand, could be an issue.
