ok so after having the car for 3 weeks i am finally able to get up some pics of it. as you can see the background is not cali. it's bumfudge idaho (yes thats SNOW on the tips of the mountains you shoulda saw it 2 day's ago when the snow line was about 100 ft up the hill) anyways i had trouble with an apartment situation after i got the car and now i'm up here working doind landscaping/excavating w/ a couple friends so after the 1000mile drive the car sits around a lot now which is a good thing since i think i need some temporary plates since i'm still waiting on my CA ones and my insurance card hasn't come yet either anyway's on to the good stuff.

07 reflex silver GTI 6spd, 6cd, sirius, 18"s:evilgrin:


(pics were taken w/ my phone so they kinda suck)

oh and the car was already back into by some stupid bitch at my school when i was still there for a short time luckily i had that license plate bracket on the front and there was no damage:rant:


and since i dont gotta pay for school this semester i can get a few small things w/ my spare cash. clear corners are coming soon and so is an awe boost gauge. and i'm gonna paint the VW circles as well as remove the side moulding soon:thumbup: the car is a blast to drive so far already got 1800mi on the odometer.

if i don't reply it's because i'm usually working 7days a week up here from 6:30am until about 7pm and i'm too tired after that.

Matter of misreading his statement, that's all.

He said that it's "more unique", and "euro", not "more unique and euro".

Don't know why that couldn't be figured out...

Sweetness! Yeah, they already have CF hoods as well as a rear hatch.:) I see you bought it at a good dealer too.:thumbup:

Congrats!:party: I think that makes three or four Cali. FJ crossovers going GTI so far. I know The Smurfs are looking at a Rabbit, and Laz is going GTI. There are a few others on the fence too. What do you guys think of FocalMKVJet? :lol:

ive never heard a gti called unique. theyre a dime a dozen gti's that is. oh also europe isnt part of america so there for it would be imported also. unless i missed the memo that stated germany is now part of the usa:lol:

you need the APR tune. If you buy the APR exhaust, it includes the tune. (a 499$ value) take your recipt to your nearest APR distributor and you'll pick up a reflash that adds about 60 hp and 80tq.

i don't see why everybody has the need to pick his post apart. we all know what he meant and yes i would say they are pretty unique atm, i have only seen about 3.

i already supported what i meant as well as most who understood, but thanx for chiming in after the fact.


and they are far from a dime a dozen in comparison to Evos and Sti which have been around for more years, thus making more them common than the MKV, sweetipie.

THere are more modded Evos and STis in socal than you can shake a stick at. They're like the Honda Civics of the day. (those and 350Z/G35 coupes) I've only seen a dozen or so GTis so far, and none were modded.

You want something unique? Buy that MKV that sicko posted and throw a twin-turbo Cobrajet motor in it, a 6 speed Richmond, some 18x9 and 18x12 3pc HREs, a full tubular suspension w/ coilovers, and a lic. plate that says: JDM SUX. Keep the rest of the exterior and interior stock (minus a sleepy 'cage and a harness, of course). Now that's unique for ya.

Sheesh, you guys are such nerds, always arguing over minutia. Go back to your D&D already. :p

ANYWAYS

Beautiful car. Glad you got it at Barber, too. :thumbup:
