A co-worker has a 04 Jetta GLI. Fun car. I've always been partial to VW's. I looked into the VW R32 before I got my 8. But my wife like the 8 better....lol.

yeah i live in Gaithersburg/Northpotomac area. i go to Montgomery college right by 355. i have seen a few RX8's.
there is one which is all black with black wheels which i dig. pretty nice setup. then there is another one that is black with red 5 spoke wheels which i do not like. to each there own but i wasnt a fan of it. i wonder if any of them are on here.

Nice ride blackoutbeast, very clean, I use to own a 1990 GLI Jetta with a 2.0 bored out motor. That car was so much fun, hope your enjoying your GTI.
