Re: VW Recall!

That is the 19,000$ question, and I have two years to decide really... I think I liked the gayti the most out of all the ones that I drove ... Btw they refused to let me drive the R, no test drives because rare. Yet they just tossed the keys to the gti like it was nothing... didn't even come along ...

Re: VW Recall!

Re: WRX - my take

Tune fixes the power band issues, the power goes up too. I bought a limited for under $32k. Not sure where you are getting $36k for a WRX. Ahh, I see. MSRP. That's not what you will pay. Unless Phagg0t. Are you Phagg0t? Limited with hk + nav, sti short shifter + exhaust =36k That's just how it was ...

Re: WRX - my take

WRX is without a doubt faster than a MK6 GTI. Yeah I didn't think you'd enjoy it all that much if for nothing other than the road noise. You might like the STI more though, brakes are great, suspension is honestly pretty similar, turn in is :mindblown: . The power is higher up though, it's pretty l...

Re: VW Recall!

Or I can get a non price inflated vw just because everyone else is trading their turdis in at this time That works too. Take the cash and run. But run where?

Re: VW Recall!

exactly that. I mean it's like $19k in your pocket for the TurDI right? That's about $10k more than you should get on a trade. So if you get zero off a GTI, which you can usually :crang: $4-5k out of.... you're still making out by a solid $5 large. I don't see the problem. That's not how the math w...

Re: Help me make up my mind (Buying a commuter box?!)

Yesterday I drove another volt, wrx, and GTI back to back. The gti I drove was the perfect spec for myself, SE. It has leather, performance brakes, broken moon roof, nice lights and the fender stereo. Overall I fucking loved the gti, ugh! It fixes everything I dislike about the tdi. It had power ev...

WRX - my take

I am embarrassed to say this is the firs time I actually drove one... here is my quick take. The good. In person the car actually looks good, especially in blue. The interior is nice, nothing feels super economy The ride is nice and firm and not jarring Handling and steering are very good. Car stays...

The pooper s with sport suspension is soft like a GTI. Non sport pooper is worse. This is stiffer. It's like a stock Cayman S really.
That's a bit shocking (pun intended). I will report back.

I thought the Rex and STI were about the same roughness wise. They smooth out as you go faster but are flinty at low speeds.
