Renowned among enthusiasts for its precise handling, 3.2-liter VR6 engine, and Haldex Traction-based all-wheel-drive system, the Mk5 Volkswagen R32 delivers engaging performance backed by a 6-speed DSG dual-clutch transmission. One of just 5,000 units produced for the U.S. market, this 2008 example is finished in Deep Blue Pearl Effect over Anthracite leather upholstery. Initially delivered in Texas, this one-owner R32 has undergone comprehensive modifications including a Rieger body kit, HPA Motorsports Liquid Cooled Turbo Kit and Intake Manifold, a United Motorsport/Bluewater Performance Stage 4 tune, Integrated Engineering Tuscan connecting rods, JE 8.5:1 forged pistons, a BorgWarner EFR 7670 turbocharger, Fore Innovations triple-pump fuel system, and 034Motorsport Billet engine and drivetrain mounts, and much more. Showing less than 49k miles on the odometer, this upgraded R32 is now being offered for auction by its original owner out of Texas.

Finished in Deep Blue Pearl Effect, this example has been customized with a Rieger body kit incorporating a lower front valance, front splitter, and side skirts. Additional upgrades include LED side markers, OEM European-market LED taillights, Skyline rear inner taillight LEDs, and 19” OEM-look wheels fitted with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires from 2017. Factory equipment includes a glass sunroof, power-adjustable side mirrors, and center-mounted twin exhaust outlets. The windows are tinted, and the paint has undergone correction and been treated with a ceramic coating. This R32 was awarded Best Looking MkV R32 at Wookies in the Woods. Detailed images and a clean CARFAX report are provided.

The cabin presents Anthracite leather upholstery complemented by machined aluminum trim along the dashboard, center console, and door panels. Amenities include heated front sport seats, R-logo front headrest embroidery, a split-folding rear bench, a leather-wrapped multifunction steering wheel with paddle shifters, aluminum pedals, dual-zone automatic climate control, cruise control, and an infotainment system with navigation.

The seller would like you to know: “Thank you for visiting my auction. I’m the original owner of this 2008 Volkswagen R32, which I purchased brand new from a VW dealership in Irving, Texas. I still remember the experience clearly—it was made even better thanks to an outstanding salesman named Oscar, who shared my enthusiasm for the brand.
This is not your average R32. This is ‘Billet Everything’—a hand-built, show-stopping VW R32 crafted by a true enthusiast (me), with years of passion poured into every detail. This car has rarely seen rain or snow, always garage-kept, and meticulously maintained. Over the years, I’ve done all the work myself, making this one of the most carefully put-together MKV R32s out there. It’s not just a build—it’s a labor of love. ‘Billet Everything’ earned Best Looking MKV R32 at Wookies in the Woods, a testament to the attention, craftsmanship, and clean aesthetic this car brings to the scene. From the engine bay to the smallest trim details, this R32 turns heads and earns respect wherever it goes. I’m looking to pass it on to someone who truly appreciates what this car represents—an award-winning, enthusiast-built R32 that deserves to be loved and preserved. If I have any questions about the build or the car in general, please don’t hesitate to ask. Enjoy the auction, and let’s set a new record for this amazing 1 of 1 vehicle!”
