I don't know about MKIs, but yes, everything else up to the MKV handles like shit. (IRS equipped R32s not included)
Like I said, they might feel amazing, but it's only because you're going a lot slower than you think you are and you don't have a whole lot to compare them to.

That argument is really tired. "My wheels cost more than three of you motors, hahaha". It's really played out and.... untrue. Most of those wheels are bought very used and then simply refinished. I'm not saying they're cheap, but stop acting like they're something incredibly special. If it does make you feel better, I spent more money on my wheels than 3 of those cars cost.
On the power platform issue, again I beg to differ. VW engines can make a LOT of power, fairly easily. Ask me how I know. It's by choice that you silly "dubbers" choose to do this ugly wheel thing instead.
