Time for a change..

Recommended Posts

So, I've recently realized my 1990 G60 is in much worse shape than I thought. So, I set out to find a new DD. After searching for a while I found this 2001 VW GTI GLS. It's a 1.8T with 1224xx miles on it. It's in great shape mechanically, except needing new brake pads which I'm getting to today. It's got a FMIC (not sure which brand), exhaust (also not sure which brand), APR software, Bilstein suspension, and probably a few other things I'm overlooking.

 

I'm on my girlfriends PC and she still uses IE and I don't know how to insert an image from Flickr with it (need the img address) and I don't feel like trying to figure it out, so here's a picture I posted elsewhere.

Probably not the best move for a college kid, but anything is better than a G60. Plus it's going to sit in a parking lot for 5/7 days of the week.

 

What do you guys think?

it's such a different car than the Corrado. This is the newest car that I've ever owned, and I can't get my head around the idea of owning a car that has everything on it working (minus the key FOB, which neds a new batter :p). It's honestly not quite as much fun to drive as the Corrado, but this has a bit more spunk to it.

 

Plus the girlfriend loves it.. I changed the oil and spilled some and saw it dripping under the car after we washed it. I pointed it out and she said that she liked it too much for it to be breaking already :p
