buying a car

ok... personally I like the tC... but I do have to say that there are VW's out there that do have performace and high end engines.. for example the phaeton has a W-12... not to say that the jetta has any performance but higher models out tehre of VW do... I use to destroy all Jetta's out there street racing with my audi

dude street racing is for queers, just becuase i have a fast car does not mean that i have to race it, if some idiot really wants to "go" i tell him to meet me at the track

You mentioned racing Hondas but didn't mention times, so I assumed that meant a street race. Do you do 1/8th or 1/4?

Lol, dude that VW rocks! They look just like the ones we have over here in UK, except they call them "Boras".
You guys are acting as if 200hp is a little! My step-dads Jaguar Produces 260hp and runs just fine, however my mums city car produces 88hp, and, well, doesn't...

It is plenty, but pretty standard when it comes to sedans in the US in the 20k-25k price range. Its not hard in the US to find cars with well over 300hp.

300 is still way the bottom end where I live...
Considering people in my town are mostly driving V12 engines... such as ferraris, BMW's, and Benz....so year.. what ever car you are talking about there is almost always a car that has more power then it.. 200hp is not alot, but then again.. its not little either.

Where in Jersey do you live? Sounds like So-Cal.

Livingston.. right next to short hills, alot of people might know short hills because of the short hills mall.. very nice mall, and not to mention theres an apple store in it. 2 miles from my house.. the perfect spot for a apple store, lol

Around Indy, seeing a Ferrari is a rarity. That would be awesome to see stuff like that all the time.

within 3 miles of my house i have a ferrari and maserati dealship.

I don't think there is even one Ferrari dealership in the entire state of Indiana.

do you have pics?

"torque is for driving, and horsepower is for bragging"
lol

I like cars a lot, and fuel costs are not an issue here cause it costs $0.04/litre but I think I'd settle for a Renault twingo (85hp; I'm still a teen don't need more than that).

that can't be right that is cost .$04/liter. its about 3.79liter/gallon, your saying it cost you like .15$ a gallon. that is the cheapest thing ive ever heard of.



****i guess i was wrong. i really don't understand it but ok.

Thats really good for such a big car with only 200hp.

mmhmm, it has 185 Ft Lb, that helps alot and it is German, thay are all about enginereing,

and here are some old pics, they when i first got the car, but i havent really changed




and that is a little photoshop nonsence, yea i got board

Looks good. I like the look of the stock 04 GLI, looks better than the new one even.

yeah, i hate the new jeta... I don't know why but it just strikes me as ugly.. that one (the 04 GLI) is a good looking car.

my car is an 01 GLS, i am working on getting an 03 GLi, and yea the new jettas a GAY, VW was trying to pull in the soccer mom Toyota croud, (which they are) but all the loyal old school VW peeps arent diging it
