This is where you are grossly misinformed, stupid, or don’t fully look at the big picture. I’m thinking all of the above. Just because you have a gun, DOES NOT MEAN YOU SHOOT SOMEONE DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Simply having it is a deterrent. You walk out of your house, you draw, person with “box cutter” (Which is still a…

The dumbass made it public himself. It’s not like he all of a sudden started getting random tweets from people. He brought attention to it himself by tweeting the issue. Could have handled that WAY better.

Great! So it isn’t true that they are unrealiable slugs like I always read on this site huh!

Wow 5-7k really?? Good on them. There is no denying that VR6 sound either. So nice. Though with my AutoTech exhaust I still get a nice low rumble without being a drone on the highway and quiet when I want to be.

That’s awsesome and I hope to get there myself! Love the GLI’s, both versions on the MKIV. Though the BBS wheels on the anniversary edition are beautiful. I have the technically 04 1/2 version. So I have the 180hp 1.8T of the GLI instead of the 150hp, the cup holders in the center console, but not the interior and the…

The VW guys/gals on the forums have been making this themselves for years now too just to show it can be done... I actually really like it. Sure it’s not WILD and that back window is pretty much directly from a ‘93 civic coupe, but I have always loved the MKIV styling. Maybe because I have owned one and still daily…

Except mine! Though I know my 04 mkiv Jetta with 203k and change just might be a unicorn...But it is my unicorn. Twice today I’ve been able to show it off now

It is ABSOLUTELY true. Back in the early 2000's I used to work at a big box store installing car stereos. I had one guy come in with a cd deck he wanted installed on his Ford Escort, Early 90's. Normally there is a small parking lot right next to our doors that the people leave their car in and we drive it into the…

- 04 jetta gls 1.8T and currently my DD since 2005. I’ve had a stage 2 tune with bolt-ons ever since as well. Pushing around 18psi on a stock turbo for at least a decade. Love that car.

Also MN resident- CAN CONFIRM.

According to your handle my Jetta has 1,424,948 miles. SWEET!

This is one of the best descriptions I have ever read. You get my star.

Agreed but really automakers have been trying to systematically take the aftermarket out for decades. See: Cd players, autostarts, sub woofers, integrated climate controls into the radio, Bluetooth, Type R editions. Most people don’t want to mod their stuff anymore. Now they just want to finance it for 7+ years...

Beat me to the Subie styling. Right there with you.

Do it to it yo, thats what I say. I wish I had the drive to keep up the details on my daily. Though after 203k I don’t think it would turn out as nice. Good looking car.

While you get my star and my thoughts, I will not feel sorry. But envy. I have missed this age of the affordable classic 911. I probably will never feel what a completely unassisted 911 feels like. So I say good luck with your build and enjoy every second.

yeah but that one was in WAY better shape. Fire does weird things.

Actually I was going the other way. It’s a Ferrari. Sounds like a spot on resoration job...

This is interesting and thanks for the work. I was one of those who took it as they are taking more leisure time to play vids. Not just spending the time they have on vids...

One of the major factors here that maybe I missed is... PARENTS. It is no longer uncool, or looked down upon to live with your parents well into your mid twenties. Why would anyone work harder to sustain or grow their quality of life if it is so socially acceptable? Until kids start getting kicked out of the house at…
