Nope it's the limited production (1500 units made) 337 Special edition it has a 1.8T engine with bigger turbo and close ratio 6spd trans and FWD config. I heard that the AWD in the R32 had some issues and added a lot more weight to the chassis. I was looking at R32, 20th Aniv, and 337 models...I didn;t think I would find a 337 since they are the most rare of the three and I like that they all came in one color combo and had the nice bbs wheels, the recaro cloth interior and was the only one that came without a sunroof!!! I don't like Sunroofs at all if I wanted the sun I would take the sl55 amg for the day!
