Also something about the turn in process...

Today was the first day of appointments... An older lady with a Mk5 Jetta did the turn in right before me.
There were 2 "settlement specialists" at this stealershit.

The sales men occasionally peaked in to see if I wanted to buy anything... other than that, it was very smooth... No pressure nothing. I was out in 10 min. Had to sign 2 pieces of paper that they filled in for me even though I printed it out at home...










anyways... i'll try to distract myself for now...

Also in case anyone cares... it sounds like they will store the cars offsite since the dealers have no space for them and there is "no fix". Then they will create an auction for the dealers to bid on the cars... which they will then buy from VW fix and resell... That's what I was told....

It was a good car that treated you well and it's meeting an undeserved end. I'm happy for you that you replaced it with something you like and got epic dough for the egg, doe.

You got that right, but difference is that kid is all about that tuner life, and max is about that balance of responsibilty, comfort, performance and pickiness. Heck max would probably call the 1er for peasants anyway (even though it's a great car)

1er is not my fav in terms of looks. The 135m sport is good as was the 1M or whatever it was called. But the prices on those cars are just STUPID. Because Jalopnik hype. There is nothing better on that car than on the current 235M sport etc. But they are worth double. :disgust:

The front end does scream chick mobile, but dat ass is where is at. The new legit 1er's (euro hatches) on other hand that I rented in Hamburg last march was a real good looking car.
And it is 1M.
