I’m also glad they offer the interior in darker colors, because the thought of what a white interior would look like under my custody for any amount of time makes me shudder in revulsion.

I’d buy a Polo GTI in a heartbeat if they sold ‘em here.

My guess is that would be the Golf R. A clean specimen of which is also slightly outside my means.

At first I was lamenting the fact that we won’t be able to buy these here in The States, but then I realized that I couldn’t afford one new, and I probably wouldn’t even be able to afford one CPO.

Count me into this group, too. Most sports cars (and expensive cars in general) bore me, but I get super excited when I see a vintage Ford Escort or five-speed Corolla in the wild.

That could be said for so many things, though.

One LJ w/ the 4.0, one JK with the 3.8, and then one JK with the 3.6. Vehicular Stockholm Syndrome. I never thought I wanted a GTI until I test-drove one on a whim. Bought it the next day and never looked back (I still keep an XJ in the garage for terrible weather and off-road excursions).

99.99% of the time, actually driving a Wrangler Unlimited is not fun. That .o1 percent of joy driving it offroad does not offset the miserable experience of a driving/parking/feeding a Wrangler day in and day out.

My brain read that entire post in a robot voice.

He Corvette’d the Corvette outta that Corvette.

You’re going to have to trade three GTIs for one of these.

Thanks for your input, Ms. Holmes.

The doctor said I wouldn’t have so many nose bleeds if I kept my finger outta there.

He somehow manages to simultaneously look like a 70-year-old physics professor and a 30-something rapscallion.

I used to have a device in my car that would suck. I bought it at the Adult Merchandise Mart and it plugged into the cigarette lighter. I think it was called The Trucker’s Friend.

I’ll just give you the highlights.

I could never bring myself to sell it. And I’ve had people offer me literally dozens of dollars for it.

This sounds legitimately wonderful and I can’t wait to watch it.

Counterpoint: You are wrong and your post is stupid.
