Or buy one of the Chinese-spec OEM units for a couple of hundred bucks, and they drop right in.  Was going to do that to my Mk6 GTI but ended up getting rid of it for a Mk7.5.  Still have an RNS 510 Nav headunit laying around for a Mk6/Tiguan/Passat/etc.

I loved the old wheels as well.  In fact, I loved everything about the car but Carvana gave me an insane buy-out offer, so I let it go.  The new one is Pure White.

Sold my 2013 GTI (6-speed) and bought a 6-speed ‘19 SE with Experience (DCC) on 1/31/20. Unfortunately it’s cursed with the dreaded 2019 GTI stalling issue. Hoping that can be resolved as there really isn’t anything else on the market that comes close to this car.

Had no idea who Ken Wahl was either.  Google reveals that he was an up-and-coming actor who broke his neck and back falling down some stairs at Rodney Dangerfield’s girlfriend’s house shortly after that cover came out, which ended his career.

In fact, not only is it a backwards E, but the logo is clearly an “E” as well.

Please, please, please find these photos.

Sorry gents, Cyrillic links end up getting butchered.  Don’t mind the secret KGB spyware, either :P.

It’s Russia. His insurance may not even cover that loss. Hell, the government-set property damage liability limits are 400,000 ($6,230.00) and limits for injury/death are 500,000 rubles ($7,786.71).

I was 16 years old. That kind of money may as well have been a million dollars to me back then. You could say the same thing about nearly every 90s teenager-desirable car. Civic Si, Integra Type R., E30 M3... They were all “affordable” back then. Doesn’t mean every teenager could afford them and doesn’t mean they’re un…

“It’s a 27 year old point-and-steer econobox, like that 1982 Camry they had on here the other day.”

A bunch of these have popped up here in SoCal from time to time, with km/hr speedos and all.  They seem to be on the conforming list, so they let them through.

You are all an embarrassment as Jalops. That is a Zaporozhets 968M.

When Gran Turismo 1 came out in 1998, we were in our senior year in HS and drooled over the P10 belonging to a guy who worked at a bank next door. His was done up in touring car Calsonic livery (but backwards, white car, blue graphics) on some awesome-and-rare-as-hell-at-the-time Volks. We were all in love with this…

I remember running to my friend’s place after school when he got his copy of GT1. We geeked out over all the car choices. I think the first thing we tried was a Mirage Cyborg R or a Starlet Glanza but quickly moved on to a P10 Primera as we were both Primera-obsessed at the time.

I miss the NATTC. Of course no one watched it, and this is why we can’t have nice things.

They say style is cyclical. They are right.

And since we’re talking about 968Ms, my grandpa (above) ended up getting rid of his burgundy 2101 for a free (инвалидный with hand controls) blue 968M which is just barely visible in this pic from approximately 1986 or so, with its hood (trunk? decklid?) open. Taken when my grandpa and sister (pictured) came to visit…

You know, I’ve always wondered why the mirror was missing.  Wipers I knew about, but never mirrors.  Now I know.

“One or two people say that this is the exact [Niva] that their grandfather had.” Another guy was once “almost overwhelmed to tears” by the car.

But that waiver must be granted unless the EPA finds that one of the following applies, per section 209 of the Clean Air Act:
