[moomoomilk]

i would like some help with a few things and im new to vw's so if your out there let me know i need help lol plus i would like some people to take a cruise with and chill let me know

[Scuba2001]

My fiancee and I will be moving to Corpus around Aug 5th. I'll be starting work at the local VW dealer the 8th. I was in town this past weekend and saw a few modded VW's around, but very few reacted to our R32 while we were there.

If you see a blue R32 or a black BMW wagon with SC plates on it, be sure to make yourself known. We'll be looking out for some cruises and things to do in town.

Hey, Scuba.. I'm looking for the CC dubbers too. I'm not finding much of anything.


I guess we hit another dry spell like Charleston. LAME.

Hey guys whats up i am/ was moomoomilk i lost my password. well due to my head gasket going out i cant drive my car yet but was wondering if yall could help out with some advice or actually coming out to help me its my first vw and i want to treat my car right thanks hope to hear from you

[breane24]

Bring it by VW of Corpus Christi, TX.
(It's on South Staples)

My fiance works as a Tech there. Drop the car off tell them you want Steve to work on it.



He can't really do any side jobs. Since its a conflict of interest. But I promise you his work is top notch. I tell you this, only because he's always worked and fixed my cars. Even taught me how to turn a wrench too!

If you want to meet with us. We're very dubber friendly. Let me know. We're looking for some enthusiasts.

hey bre thanks for the input i would like to take it over there but they said they wouldnt take anything that has been tampered with by me. but yeah i would love to meet up and hang out but first i have to get the mk working first lol almost done just a timing issue and putting it back together i have been waiting a couple of months so im anxious to drive it.

[breane24]

Hey, man.
I'll pm you Steve's number. We were under the impression that we were going to be swinging by your place yesterday after work. But never heard anything from you.

[TC4Tay]

Im from C.C. just got my new 2012 white GLI.

[Scuba2001]

Congrats. Did you buy it from VW of CC? I haven't seen our white one around the lot here the past few days, that's why I'm asking.

[TC4Tay]

Yea, picked it up Saturday. Loving it.

[Scuba2001]

Glad you're liking the new car. When the first 3 GLI's came in, the white was my favorite.
We just got a blue Beetle last week, and should have a few more here in a few weeks. Just got a large shipment of Passats and Jettas too, most of them loaded with navigation. Woot.

[Scuba2001]

Chris, pleasure meeting you today. Hopefully you can get that block loosened up so the rest can be put back together. Let me know if you need a hand with anything else.

[lilsoulja]

Really hope you're gettin things going on the mk3 moomoo, and welcome to the gulf coast ya'll. I no longer (read: technically it didn't really last long at all, but I digress) dub and as it seems a lot of local vw owners seem to cringe when I throw up a W in respect/admiration of their rides.

I am sure there are dubbers...just quiet or in a s.a., austin, or other thread. In the past, there was probably a few.

I simply had to speak out when I heard that corpus has gli's! Neva noticed during my previous nite-time visits. Salesman once had me thinking I was on the lot to buy though I was clear that I wasn't in the market to buy. I was more curious if the coupe concept was going to become reality.

4tay: Thanks and no thanks (for taking the white), lol.

At any rate, check out the other areas as well. I hear that cruising the hill country is nice.

Haha, you're welcome. I lucked out really. I had a '11 Jetta SE and thing just happened to fall into place that day. From what my salesman told me, there are only two GLIs in corpus, my white one and a red one though I haven't seen it.

[breane24]

That is very true ! There are a total of 3, 2012 GLi's in the Corpus Christi Area.
One white, One Red, and one Black.

The red one was the first to sell. Where as you bought the white one shortly after the red one disappeared. And I have not been working for VW of CC, anymore as my contract work ended. So, I have no idea about the black one.

I will tell you that I washed the white one. .. And I really liked the white out of the three that came in.. Thus, being the wheels seemed to blend that much better with the white- then the other cars. I'm slightly jealous, that those wheels are so easy to clean.

So, with that being sad. . . WELCOME TO YOUR GLi! You'll miss her when she is gone.
I miss my GLi so much. The R32 just doesn't replace the GLi's boost.




With there being a few people now chatting.
Could I interest anyone in a LOCAL GTG for Corpus Christi, TX?

Please let me know what (everyone's) availability is like on the weekends.. and I'll go from there. .. . . . I use to plan the GTG's in Charleston, SC. So, I don't mind planning again. Infact, I use to really enjoy it.

I've also been told by a BMW guy, that local meet ups happen. For all cars. Mostly euro. Tuesdays and Saturdays. Tuesdays are around 10pm-11pm, (not sure on the location yet). And Saturday's is at Vick's off of Ayres and SPID 12pm-3am. Both of which are meets I don't wish to attend for how late they are. But if anyone else would like to sniff them out let me know...

[Scuba2001]

On Friday evening around 6:30 or wo I think, saw a hit driving the white GLI around by Imax theater on SPID. I know you was me in the R32, and I was as shocked as you to see it around town. Next time ill be sure to give a wave.

[TC4Tay]

I was wondering if that was you, I was heading to a friends house. Your r32 sounds nice, always like those. As for a meet I'd be down, name a time and place.

[Scuba2001]

For anyone interested, we have 3 other GLI's that just came in this week. Black, red, and platinum gray. Not bad option packages either.

[lilsoulja]

Saw a red autobahn edition gli when I went to a baby shower saturday. Moonroof manual tint. Veddy nice.

Yep, from time to time I do. I surf around in the evenings when I get home from work.

[zekedub]

[Scuba2001]

[TC4Tay]

[zekedub]

once more people check in we can maybe set something up...also corpus dubbers check out corpusracing.com not many vws besides me and couple guys but they rarely check in, if yall get on this often you should open another tab to CR.com so us Dubs can take over!

[TC4Tay]

I haven't been on corpus racing in years. Got tired of the people there. But maybe I'll sign up again.

Yup some people are still the same. but tons of new ones, ive only been on the site for about 3-4 years on and off

[TC4Tay]

SCCA autocross is starting up again this weekend at Waldron field in Flour Bluff. 8am Saturday and Sunday, $35 for both days. Hope yall can make it!

[Scuba2001]

A buddy of mine told me about the autocross on Wednesday. I unfortunately had to work Saturday so I wasn't able to make it. I understand the next one will be some time in March, so I'll see if I can make it to the next one.

[zekedub]

wow i wish i would have checked back in 2 days ago...i missed it. Im sure its free to spectate like before right?

[TC4Tay]

Yea Steve, the autox is held the first weekend of every month so march dates are the 3rd and 4th.

Yup still free to watch but why not just run?
