Sooo my girlfriend got her first car in the states (finally, omg. so I don't have to drive her around anymore lol).

We wanted to get a Mazda 3 with the GT package (for the Bose, Leather, Sunroof and HID), but turns out that none of the dealer wanted to let it go for cheap (prolly cuz there are just so little of them).
Private sellers are no where to be found neither.
Anyways, we figure with the price they offer, we could get a Volkswagen GTI, and thus we did. :D

Obviously it is another class, but with the same (or even better) mileage, German-made, more power, more torque, more fun. So why the hell not? lol

Anyways, enough with the bullshit, here it is.
08 10k Miles, Cloth, DSG, Sunroof, HID + some pretty tasteful mods.

and this was the furniture if anyone was curious

Pics of said girl? Sick car, is this the awd one or is that the r32?

I dont get the germens. if they are gonna limit the car to 155mph, why did they have a speedometer up to 180mph?

lol Divya, I thought we were facebook friends? There are some up there. lol

Haha, it's the FWD 200hp GTI, but it launches pretty good and it has useful torque from as low as 1500rpm, so yea, it's easier to drive for my gf. It's been pretty sweet so far. Too bad its FWD, o well.

Safety reasons. Mainly tire companies pressured them to sign a gentleman's agreement. (Read it from somewhere, I might be wrong.)

But nways lol. I think this thing has a top speed of 13x only.

BAZOOKA.

Clean v-dub but still FWD fail. :)

clean gti lookin good ...

its cute!

Nice! My wife has a 07' Jetta and I love driving it. Very comfortable on long trips with the family.

nice cars. like your 8. tails look nice. and i guess the GTI is alright too =p

thanks guys.

haha, so she pressed her horn for the first time for the day, and i laughed all day.
we then decided to take a video for it.
go figure for youself.

Very nice choice!

Bahahahahaha @ Horn

lol, if i heard that on the street i'd laugh too haha

ha ha that horn is awesome!! nice ride for the girl for sure

That horn is hilarious.

Lol at the horn. Nice choice for your girl to drive.

lol at the horn...

lol, that horn is pathetic

Nice cars for a couple especially when you get the spare key!
Funny horn gives it a plus haha

puts some airbags on that beast :p:

Btw, in the pic of the rears of your cars, looks like your neighbor with the van is trying to secretly sell your 8, just sayin.

lol thanks for all the "lol" for the horn, i accidentally used it today and it was so effing embarrassing.

hate to say it though, this thing with intake + exhaust probably a chip (gonna take it to a friend with a GTI to look at it) throws my back to the seat pretty tightly. this could easily pull a few cars on our 8 on a straight road :(
but again, it's nothing like driving the 8. for some straight dumb ass fun, this car could easy satisfy me.
really can't complain at all about this vee dubb got 27mpg with mixed highway/city spirited driving on the first tank lol.
i was sooooo excited when i finally squeezed a little over 250 on my last tank in the 8.
