hahah that's exactly what I did too

why do you wanna get rid of it? I'm guessing you want to get out of the whole "JDM scene"?

nice car

Wanna trade?
2006 GTI, 6spd, 34k, all go-mods, have a scratch on the hood.
Not 275whp, that'd require a turbo swap. Going dyno on the 26th @ AA in charleston.

This is my third EVO. I love em to death but I'm 35 now. I'd like some real comfort in my next car - like leather, heated seats, etc.

I've driven the MZD3, WRX (and Legacy 2.5), Spec V, A3 and R32. All 07/08 models. R32 is the nicest but DSG only isnt for me.

BTW, I won the Street Mod class, SCCA Time Trials in 06. It's a hard decision to get out of the EVO scene. The car is that good.
www.joe-racer.com - then bottom of second page for EVO.

Thx!

i'll trade. 06 GTI Pkg 2. mods in sig, leather. climatronic, 28k miles.

Here is a shot of the DEFI boost (not the garbage AM in the prev picture) and brake upgrade.

By request, closer shot of the Gram Lights Optimise. No spacers, no fender rolling. 9.5" wide. And the interior is stealth black on the trim and A pillar.

peep my car for sale in my signature and let me know if you're interested.

Thx Doug - but I'm looking for a pkg 2 - and poss w/ Navi, too.

full warranty? even with all those mods?

"People come up to me all the time and say "oh i've got a mondeo that'll go faster than that" But they haven't!... I've driven a 400 hp Mitsubishi Evo before and pieces of the trim were literally falling off of it"
