Always will have a soft spot, I had 2. The last one I 16v swapped with full race exhaust, gti short ratio (4k trans), euro intake cam, various suspension goodies. That thing RIPPED. Camisa has a twin of that build, except he went all out with the 2.0 9a bubble block whist I had a poverty 1.8 from a mk2. https://www.hagerty.com/marketplace/cla ... cd5fab9dfc

I'm happy for Brad because nobody jerks it to the Miata harder on this forum and that is the Crown Prince of Miatas.

Well, when you're on that Tessie AND insurance company pay roll, you can fuckin' send it, bro.
My dad had a Rabbit when I was a kid. I've always wanted one a little.
In seriousness, a better buy than a 10 year old unit at MSRP.
At some point it turns into classic car... a 40 year old car with 37k miles... i'd venture to say is there.
Didnt meet reserve at 21k

My bro had an '85 Cab with the Mk1 GTI motor and trans. It was a fun little picnic basket. Really solidly built, too. Dat Karmann Coachworks
That's how they came from factory, with all the GTI goodies to make up for the extra weight. But critically as a young male driver, without the GTI tax for insurance

speaking of dumb shit... i am thinking an older low mile p car with records may be a pretty fun way to blow some cash and not end up spending a fortune sending your dealers kids to private school
If we get this next big contract at work securing my position for a couple years I might look at making a move.

Do ya'll fit into the S2k? that thing is frigging tiny for linebackers. It feels like the proper height of someone driving one starts with a 5
