That car is nice, young man. Turbo = RATINGS

0% interest = MAD RATINGS!!!

My payments would be the same as my wife's 15000 car, because of the interest difference.

0% interest would be tite as **** if you qualify. IMO, that car is ugly as corn'd ****. i think if you spend a few days looking around, you'd find something much better. but for what that car has and does, overall, its a good deal.

I like almost all european cars. VWs are the only ones I can afford unfortunately.

If I had my way I'd get a BMW. I doubt I'd get a new one for that price.

VW's arent all that great....alot of problems with them from what i've heard and experienced, but i also hear the 1.8t setup is pretty solid and proven. not bad but you should be able to get a comparable car for under 20. its 20k now until all the fees and taxes are added on and they present you with a 23k bill lol

Nuno

$21500 to be exact General.

you need an SUV and a cell phone. That's how people know you're important. Buy the biggest suv on the lot, get a boat hitch installed even though you will never haul anything and thendrive around with a cell phone glued to your head. Make sure you drive in BOTH lanes too.

as long as a man is behind the wheel, there's nothing wrong with an SUV

SUV's are for people with little man syndrome. Unless you're hauling a boat or a trailer or you have like 5 kids the only reason you but a big ass sport utility is for a status symbol.

NO. that car looks like a dirty ass.

GTI= fast = the right answer.

If I were you, I'd get a 3rd generation Type R Integra and stick the japanese headlight kit on it.

I've been offer a deal on the GTI 1.8T.
$17900 0% APR
:puke: $3000 trade in for my 2000 Mustang with 79000 miles
He worked out a deal that I would pay $259 a month for 5 years.

The car is silverstone gray, leather interior, sunroof, turbo :burnout: ....ect.

Me likes it. He says he has to clear the deal thru VW HQ on tuesday. We shall see. If it goes though, I'm buying it!!! I read that the 1.8T does 0-60 in 6.5 sec. :headbang:

That doesn't sound like much money for a four year old mustang. Even with that mileage

R32's are importable. There's actually a company called Motorex ( http://www.motorex.net ) That imports them and sells them. They can get many of the skylines imported and legal. There's a guy around here with an R34 Vspec I see occasionally at some car shows, but it's been converted to left side driver.

ok #1, get the deal on paper, and sell your mustand outright. you can get more than 3 grand for it in a private sale.
#2 for 17,900 )%, it's now become a good deal. You seem set on this car anyhow, as when anyone points you the other way, you point back at it, so just go buy it cause its what you want and getting what you want is more important than getting what any of us want. :) Congrats on taking the next step but please sell the rustang outright!

Oh and SUV's might suck for some of you fair wethered california boys, but they are very practical for us northern bastards when 3 foot snow drifts are abundant. I'm gonna buy a truck next though, as i could use it for hauling the bike around and stuff...if i were to buy today it would be a Nissan Titan, but it'll be a couple years so that will likely change as the vehicles change :)

My friend who is helping me owns the 4th fastest R34 GTR in the country.

One of his mates who will be doing a lot of the work on my car owns the fastest Supra in the country.

So I got it yesterday. It's faster than my V-6 Mustang. The monsoon sound system is off the hook. It got an amp in the trunk so it's loud as ****! Me likes it!

Matter of fact I thought about getting the WRX, but I've always wanted a GTI so.....

Prince
09-08-2004, 03:45 PM
it's going to be awhile, probably at the end of this year or beginning of next before i get it. they think it's going to be a 2.5RS right now but the day we go up there it's going to turn into a WRX.
