Fantastic choice.

My father sold a 505 Turbo about 10 years ago, in red. It was beautiful. It went across the country.

They're all in California. I drive a 1990 Golf and regularly see older VWs, Rabbits of all trims.

Really? I see these all the time.

I saw two on Sunday. There's one that lives in a garage three blocks from me. The other showed up to a small car event, totally unaware, just running errands.

That's awesome! Must be a cool feeling.

What the fuck is this shit? It's not event decent.

Yes, I agree 100%. Thank you.

I like these C-pillars.

There are a few in my town. I'm near San Francisco.

Awesome writing Jason, this was a great review to read. I'd love to get a chance to drive one of these things!

"You cannot hide something so mentally beautiful [from] us, Lambo.

"Alícia Rius has shown us what abandoned cars look [like] from the inside."

I think I'd just rather see this called a Cabriolet.

Really, you have a problem with the paint? I love the color. I do agree on the lights (placement-wise for the centers). Those blue lights are pretty dumb. But I think the gray looks understated and aggressive! To each his own.

Maybe I'm just having trouble with this being a Golf convertible. I want it to have a different model name! I'm having a VW identity crisis.

The Mk1 Cabriolet was . . well, a Cabriolet, not a GTI. You're right about the other GTI models though.

Understandable. I don't think either vehicle was sold here - sorry if I seemed aggressive.

Your point?

This is a very good-looking car. Hurrah!
