Pretty cool to see those with long histories of VWs.

Not my first car but my first VW was a MK2 Jetta, a few cars in between and then a MK5 GTI. Then I "upgraded" to a Focus ST and then really upgraded to a MK6 GTI that is stage 1 by Cobb. I have a MK7 R on its way (any day now!).

I always have an economical car and an SUV, which is my snow and beach vehicle.

My GTI's current stablemate is a 2006 4Runner:

Prior to my GTI, I owned a 2014 Focus ST:

Prior to my 4Runner, I owned a brand new 2012 Wrangler Unlimited, which blew a cylinder head at 7,000 miles and I ditched it shortly thereafter:

Prior to my Focus ST, I owned a 2012 Passat TDI:

Prior to my 2012 Wrangler Unlimited, I happily owned a 95 Wrangler for many years. Here are my then very young sons driving it:

For a short time, I concurrently owned these two incredible beasts, a 1996 Passat TDI wagon and a 2006 Golf TDI, both proper 5 speeds:

Adding this last pic of the Golf's dashboard, which was one of my favorite ever:

I owned a sh*tload of cool cars before these, but the list would get even more ridiculously long than it already is. I also skipped all of my ex-wife's cars.

[GTI Jake]

My firt rail buggy, bug 1600cc drivetrain


Nissan hardbody I got for free dubbed "The Freesan". Had lots of good times with it ha


Geo Tracker I got for $500, literally would go anywhere


Sold the Tracker to make room for this. Didn't keep it long tho

Overall I've had 16 Volkswagens including my current mk7. I've always owned at least one at any given time since I got my license almost 10 years ago and I can't see myself daily driving anything else

Nah...the 370Z, GT-R and Range Rover are gone. It's not worth posting my 99' Jeep Cherokee or Volvo 850 I figured.

But this 97' Eagle Talon was one of my old projects. Way too many mods to list but made 521whp and ran 10.9 @130mph many moons ago.

My Current Classic of this 1948-1990 model. An absolute blast.

Currently considering buying one of these three cars to add to my classic collection.
