Not quite. They're all AWD and the engine is mounted longitudinally, though in front of the front axle.

I always loved these things, and a to boot? Kid's got great taste...hopefully it's reliable for him.

Oh, dat

They also look way better than a Golf thing, the A5/S5 lines are really excellent.

I ended up buying him the dub because:

a) he has been pointing out GTI's since he was old enough to walk
b) the 2001 Mk4 was the generation he first loved, and
c) it was a one-owner, dealer serviced w/documentation, close to pristine specimen.

But I couldn't get the Z off of my mind. These were head turners for me back in the 90's and this one was fairly well-taken-care-of, garage kept with just over 100k farts. The guy was looking for $3500 but settled for a flat $3000..... So I said fuq it, and pulled the trigger.

Anyway, she is my garage car for the most part. Though I did let the the crotchfruit run it for a few semesters while I decided whether or not to have a timing chain put in the VR6 (I did). It was pulling a little before I put it away for the winter (prob bushings or ball joints).

I play around with the thoughts of having it painted (burgundy or burnt orange) but the pearl white is such a throwback to the 90's that I am afraid I will be sorry.

I also wish it was tubroed but I am way too for that.

It gets alot of attention as is.

Most likely scenario is that I will eventually trade it for something else that I find cool.
