For the first time since 1978, I walked into a Stealership and said "I have cash, sell me a car".

Drove it home three weeks ago and it hasn't moved since, weather's real crappy.

Film at 11 ....

Now what will you do with all your extra time? Since you won't have to work on it that means you have time for a real project.

My guess is that you could not resist that Eminem advertising.

Good God, say it aint so. Its a cool as hell concept for a commercial, and I like the "imported from Detroit" catch phrase...too bad its for a turd of a car.

No Eminen, it's German. Since I caught Mrs. 914 in a pliable mood, I bought four of these 18" wheels, some rubberbands and Eibach springs.

I've had the car three weeks but the weather is so crappy I only got to drive it from the Stealership to home.

Thanks Mtn, if everything were as short as my memory there'd be real trouble in the world.

Sorry, it's dusk and a crappy day for photos, but here it is. Like Jettas or not, you just can't argue with the way it sets.

Inline 5 runs on pump gas, schtick, cruise, sporty springs, what's not to like?

I'm happy. Someday when I actually put miles on it I will be estatic!

Actually, those 18's are cheap (in a good way) and light since they are cast.

Now you need to SLAM THAT BITCH!

That was mine at one point, at that time it was my sisters. In fact, that was my first official registered and insured under my own name vehicle.

But enough about me, I don`t think we know if the Jetta has the 2.0T in it? If so, needs a chip stat

Inline 5 would mean the 2.5L n/a engine not 4 cyl 2.0L turbo.
