Jim,

Congrats on the new R. I too wanted to order through West Houston VW, but the wait would have been way too long, so I ordered through a dealer in San Antonio.

It would be great to meet up. I'd like to see a CSG R in person, and you can see what you think about the ride, handling, and appearance of the R with the Euro springs (as well as what Stage 1+ feels like). I should be pretty open this weekend if you want to meet up.

TLud,

I've beed following your Euro spring thread here on VW Vortex and also on Kilometermagazine. I'm located in Houston as well, on the west side, near I-10 and Wilcrest.

I just picked up a loaded CSG R in Dallas last Friday. Got really lucky. I had a deposit on order with West Houston VW and they anticipated a 6-9 month delivery. Then I located the car in Dallas and learned it's the only one in Texas and no other CSG's are showing up on the Texas allocation list. Found it last Thursday, flew to Dallas Friday morning and drove her home Friday afternoon. Loving it so far...

I'm very eager to hear more about your expeience with the euro springs and hope you'd be willing to share what I'd need to do to replicate on my car. If you're up to it I'd love to meet somewhere so I can see the results live.

Thanks in advance.

Jim
