36k miles, price is 19k which doesn’t seem awful. I don’t know that I could do that interior though for that much money :lolgasm:

I feel the same way about my wheels. Sometimes I think I’m the only person that actually prefers silver wheels over black.
Nah, black wheels are pretty played out/lame. I know, my car has ‘em, I’m not a fan though.
In early late 08-14 they seem to be cool. But now that some oems have adopted, Im looking at you Civic and HRV sport. It's kinda old enough to be cringy.

But yours is a GTI, not a Golf. You are ok in my book Agaphimou.

Im referring to factory fake sport trim vehicles when they're actually appearance packages.

I personally like(d) the black wheels on the current 2025 Golf R... They look good. Don't car that ya'll are trippin about it.
