Thank you for being a voice of reason in all of this commentary. I lived through this era as well, and your comments are spot on.
Well, you know what they say: “Chem men’she znaesh’, tem loocheh.”
Great point. Any car can make it to 200k and beyond with time and money. Maybe this refers to original drive-train?
Interesting to know, thanks for sharing!
Every Friday when I’m heading home on the interstate I see a caravan of about 4-5 “tow” vehicles (rigged caravans or other non-typical tow cars) each towing two wrecked late model vehicles. They are always heading South. In my head, it’s a game of Jeopardy, “These vehicles are headed for which Central American country?…
I was immediately suspicious, since this is 5 thousand under comparables.
You know what I’m gonna do?
I’m gonna get myself a 1967 Cadillac Eldorado convertible
Hot pink with whale skin hubcaps
And all leather cow interior
And big brown baby seal eyes for head lights (Yeah)
And I’m gonna drive in that baby at 115 miles per hour
Gettin’ one mile per gallon
Sucking down Quarter Pounder cheeseburgers…
What an absolutely ridiculous article! Are we really going to be concerned about “sharks getting into ocean discarded cocaine?!” I mean, it just goes against common sense to even conceive of this happening with all the other things that are more likely in this world! I for one, am offended at the insinuations of this…
Lightly used WRX? (AWD, manual, fun to drive, let the dogs tear up the interior which isn’t that great to begin with). I hear dog people like Subarus...
Those Tommy’s (sic) are known to get a little loud and boisterous
Don’t read too much into those charity auctions. Just about all beyond the sticker price (or accepted value) is written off as a tax deduction. The hammer on charity auctions means nothing to the marketplace.
maybe geographic or generational differences?
Just making sure I didn’t have to scroll far before the first “bitch basket” reference came up.
New company coming in 2024. Private expeditions to dive to the Titanic and Titan wrecks. No experience needed. Paying customers will be called “adventure mates” or “mission ballast.”
Can i remove the 2 rows of seats without fuss and fit a mattress for when I’m living down by the river?
Nah, he’s just channeling his inner Chuck Norris
Sounds like can be a tenuous situation. I guess at the least the GTI is tolerant of different octanes (usually fill my gti on premium, but have been known to put regular in from time to time depending).
Good rec. A friend recently got a 3 GT (more expensive of course), but I was blown away how premium that car felt and by the ride. She did very well on her choice.
