Re: VW Recall!

I went to a vw dealer and so far my suspicion has been confirmed, the deals on VW's are done for the forseeable future. This :dillerman: bragged that 1200 ppl registered to get their cars bought back there, while the other :dillerman: corrected him and said 1500!!! 1500 talking wallets equipped wit...

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.

The wrx has a usable interior and costs 1/3 to own. However I'm not sure about the road noise and fun to drive aspect. Will report back. Come to think of it I have never driven one.

Live a little Max. You'll hate the hybrid Cruze in a month. CLA vs WRX. In4results. I think you'll have fun in the Rex. But I think the CLA will win for you.

But making decisions based entirely on financial implications is really boring. Absolutely, ironically that stupid cla250 threw a wrench into everything. I legit loved driving that car.

It really was. This car is legit not bad. The best part is the chassis and suspension though. It is very fun to drive, like mini levels of fun.

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

The best thing to do with money is to park it in some sort of money market account until everything blows over. Get it out of cars, doe. That's for sure however unless vw goes under my money is locked in. Ie free car. Ugh it is the smartest thing to do ... even the cheapest volt lease will run ~240...
