  • 2012 Golf R Performance
    2012 Golf R Performance 256-hp, 2.0L TSI® engine 4MOTION® all-wheel drive 6-speed manual transmission All these numbers add up to R. Combine a 256-hp, 2.0L turbocharged engine, 4MOTION all-wheel drive, and a 6-speed manual transmission. Then step on the gas and launch from 0 to 60 mph in just 5.6 seconds. That, friends and car enthusiasts, is the rarely-seen-in-this-country Golf R. Driving the Golf R is more than just a drag race when you climb behind the race-inspired wheel.* Take it fast on the straightaway and then downshift into a turn to see how the enhanced sport suspension and 4MOTION all-wheel drive let you handle curves like it’s glued to the road. There’s nothing like a little German engineering to get your adrenaline flowing. With limited production, the Golf R is sure to be a treat, if you can get your hands on one. For the first time, the Golf R is going to be available in 2- and 4-door models, so whether you’re slugging your friends around or opening it up solo on the track, you’ll want to be one of the select few driving this hyper-tuned beast. *Always obey local speed and traffic laws. Comfort Unique R-badged top sport seats Limited-edition R badging Enjoy a little prestige with Race-inspired blue needles on the tachometer and speedometer your power. Nothing beats the thrill of driving the fastest production VW in the U.S., but what’s under the hood is only the beginning.* Walk up to your Golf R and its doors will unlock as soon as you touch the door handle (assuming you’ve got your keys with you), thanks to available keyless access with push-button start.

  • What You Need to Know About Golf Carts and Neighborhood Electric Vehicles
    What You Need to Know About Golf Carts and Neighborhood Electric Vehicles State Law 1. A “golf cart”, as defined in Sec. 502.001(18) of the Texas Transportation Code, is a motor vehicle designed by the manufacturer primarily for transporting persons on a golf course. 2.

Section 571.500). 3. A person operating a motor vehicle, including golf carts, on a highway in this state must hold a driver’s license per Sec. 521.021 of the Texas Transportation Code. 4. The definition of “highway” according to the Texas Transportation Code Sec. 541.302(5) is the width between the boundary lines of a publicly maintained way any part of which is open to the public for vehicular travel. Therefore a driver’s license is required to operate a motor vehicle on any public roadway. 5.
