Pretty quick....
Couldn't find a thread on these from anyone using them. If anyone is using them, did you notice much of a difference in response? Do the stock links allow much flex before engaging the swaybar anyway? I know on the old WRX that was the case, but the stock ones were plastic and the GTI uses...
Spotted a new Jetta TDI in Southern california with new plates. I've seen plenty of them with MFG/DLR plates, but now that I've seen an actual owner with one, this is good news! I gotta be honest.. with the mileage, it's looking pretty temping!
Here was a great post by HPA about their progress on R32 mods. Unfortunately, the thread got locked shortly after, due to arguments about pointless off topic shtuff. :iono:

Uhh yeah.. it was loud.. went from about a 5mph roll til about 50 or so.. I'd say he was 3 cars behind and falling. Ever felt embarrassed for someone else losing? I did. Particularly because he seemed to be driving with such an "I'm the man" attitude before the race. Followed by a ricer flyby...
So VW offers $1,000 extra towards a new purchase if you trade in a 2001 and up Volkswagen... BUT they say the offer is good for the month of March only. I'm thinking, dangit.. so little time to decide if I want to get a new one. And it expires.. THEN, I look today out of curiosity, and now it's...
I really liked the way the car felt vs my GTI. It felt MUCH more flat and the steering felt more solid. I was able to give it a good test on a circular onramp. I could definitely feel the difference with the all wheel drive, where the GTI would have been scrambling for traction. The brakes felt...
Anyone get the quote?? Anyways.. Why is it that after playing games like World of Warcraft.. or anything on PS3, I'm still entertained by playing 16-17 year old games like Final Fantasy II (US). I'm totally in nostalgia mode with games right now. Snes, Nes, and Genesis time! :biggrin:
As the title says. What does your significant other or spouse think of your MKV?
Praises? Complaints? Weird quotes? Let's have it.
My girlfriend made comments about my car, so it got me curious. lol. She likes the seats and dash a lot and says it's "romantic". :wub:
Is anyone able to fit a mountain bike in the back of their Rabbit or GTI? I'm going to assume at least the front wheel would need to be removed. Thanks in advance.
