Detroit wrote: ↑Fri Apr 24, 2020 10:33 amIt was a damp, foggy morning in a field just outside of Chicago where the first auto race of the 1921 racing season was to take place. Henry Ford puttered up to the starting line in his newest racing machine, leaving behind tire tracks in the fresh morning dew. Rumors were swirling that this machine was easily capable of triple digit speeds, and all looked on with amazement as Wap rolled up next to him in his own homebuilt contraption. Like nothing the world had seen, Wap ignored the gasps from the crowd as he snugged up his driving gloves, and while lowering his goggles over his eyes, shot his dear friend Henry the first side eye in motor racing history.
A woman donning a fresh bobbed haircut and a trench coat strutted in front of the two machines. Both Henry and Wap revved their eager machines in a building crescendo to redline. The woman dropped her red handkerchief that Wap had given her the night before and the men were off.
The speed was brutal and unrelenting, but unfortunately short lived. As the two rounded the first corner, Henry's machine suffered a catastrophic steering failure which sent him straight past the turn. Wap's front tire caught the grooves left in the field, and combined with the slick morning dew, Wap's machine went rolling.
The crowd gasped as the machine barrel rolled across the field. The sound of metallic crunching and internal combustion combined with the smell of smoke and raw fuel. Fearing the worst, Wap's racing crew came rushing to his aid, and as they approached a figure emerged above the smoke atop the now wrecked heap below. It was Wap...he struggled to rise, but determined as he was, he stood up, winked at the woman donning the bobbed haircut and shot a sharp solute to the crowd.
The crowd erupted in cheering, cheering that they say could be heard all the way in Detroit. Wap, while miraculously alive, suffered a drastic injury to his left leg. He was in a cast for three months recovering, and being stuck at home he worked to develop an automatic transmission for racing applications. It was the first of it's kind and the world marveled the next year when he beat Henry at the same race. Wap has driven an automatic transmission ever since both out of necessity, but also out of pride for what he was able to accomplish when he was at his weakest.

No, I believe the HU in the rabbit edition is the same as an “S”. Honestly, not even that bad. Lower resolution and smaller screen (but better than mk6) and more buttons versus touch “buttons” that are not tactile/clicky in minewap wrote: ↑Fri Apr 24, 2020 10:59 amRemind me.

It's not the same HU in SE and up models. I don't remember the exact size but it's around a 6" screen. Lower resolution but it still functions the same and if I remember right it's plug and play to upgrade to the nicer 8" glass panel.wap wrote:Remind me. Is it the same HU that you have?

More buttons is good! I assume no CD player because this isn't 2011 any more.
Mine has the CD played and SD slot and such in the glove box. I’ll snap a pic.

Weird. I went to the
website for this one https://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/deta ... =atempest4 and they don't show this car there. 
Not necessarily. After using both 7 and 7.5 HU's I definitely prefer the glass panel in the 7.5. It requires a much lighter touch. Especially if you're using something like carplay or Android auto.wap wrote:More buttons is good! I assume no CD player because this isn't 2011 any more.

They are 18" black pretorias with A/S tires. The black prets came on all rabbit edition cars.

One of my VW buddies done the switch on his R, and turns out to be more responsive. I'm fine with mine since I mostly listen to music via BT or Sirius and few other settings to benefit from.

It's ok, just spray windex and it'll cure everything. Also spray windex on your car when you get it for good luck and drink some mexata. Wish we have mexata herewap wrote: ↑Fri Apr 24, 2020 11:37 amDetroit wrote: ↑Fri Apr 24, 2020 11:29 am

GTI is probably it if you want a new car. IMO it is a hell of a lot better vehicle than an AllTrac (not hideous, quicker, cooler/better seats, LSD, etc).
But I do think a 335/340i would be rad, they are pretty darn reliable up to 120K I think, you only did 72k in a decade.
MB AMG GLA 45 seems cool? Kinda a CUV but really more like abut cooler.
GoRf --> DSG IMO
