The peace talks came about only AFTER the fat waterheads test site was destroyed

That lawyer called the tire “the worst in history” because the g159 had a failure rate of something like 70x that of the Firestone/Ford debacle.

No, I never recorded any evidence. Sounds pretty similar though.

When my wife had her jetta, I redid the exhaust in 2.75" pipe from the cat back. No resonator, no muffler. It sounded crazy good. Was otherwise stock.

Exactly where my mind went as well

With the exception of the short throw shifter (personal preference, I don’t like them for reasons I can’t explain) the mods are exactly what I would do.

Hell, for years my dad had an el Camino. Mom had a Caprice wagon.

And any damages the cop cars sustained was billed to the guy hit.

Whiskey, bourbon, motorcycles and jeans are the main things that they are targeting.

Holy crap guy. Seriously, glad you stayed on the right side of the grass.

If it was an x3, it wouldn’t be shipped from Germany to the UK, considering they are all made in the US.

Kbb shows a private party sale price of 22,500. The blower is ~7,000 with probably 800 in installation labor. The exhaust is probably 700 with maybe 300 in labor.

I actually had one of Steve’s fictional scenarios when I got my forte. The trade in had blown a cracked block. Originally, the dealership was going to give me scrap value. I was happy with that.

Whoa... I have seen this car on the road. I honestly had no clue that it was an AWD monster. Just looks like a modded c30.

Get a manual one and you could even slap on the hpd supercharger for a nice bump up to right about 200 hp.

I had something similar happen to a jetta I had. Trunk worked just fine, didn’t have any issues with it. Got a flat on the way to work one day so I hit the trunk release. Nothing. Pull it again. Nothing. Get out and use the key. I hear the mechanism working, but it doesn’t open. Turn key again and pull on it. Nothing.

Oh, that’s so much more inconvenient than her car.

Friend had the handle break while trying to load kids up for school. With child locks engaged. Door hasn’t opened in 6 months.
