That happens constantly here. I've become very good at driving defensively.

As a HA member, I deplore your decision. However, the GTI is luscious. How long do you expect the tib to last as a winter car, before it is transformed into a teaspoon of red dust?

lol teaspoon of red dust... well ill maintain it as i currently do, but there is already some rust on the front of the driver door (Indiana roads in the winters are hell for a car)



I wanna do a lot to the tib, but i really shouldnt the body is in OK shape, not great by any means... its been hit a few times

So it needs body work, needs wheels, suspension, etc. it just wouldnt be worth it



Right now i work at a VW Dealership, so i could get the GTI cheaper than normal. it already has an intake, coilovers, exhaust, and its been chipped.

Hey Zekkal I think you should buy that GTI, cause you won't be winning a Genesis Coupe anytime soon....... sorry.



edit- but it will look GREAT in my garage!

Real or not? Sometimes its hard to find the time to wash your van, so why not draw a picture in the dirt instead.

I think that might be an overlay. I have my doubts whether that is actually dirt.
