    Not every MkIV needs to be even this fast but when a car is so low it looks broken and has more money in the wheels (with huge rear wheels no less) than the car's KBB it just doesn't make sense.

    bout time i updated, been mia for a while sry pplz!

    i now reside in palm bay florida, was trying to trade before h2o 2012 but nothing came through..

    as of now i would still trade it for a clean mk2, but would need to be swapped, either vr6 (done right) or a 1.8t.. could have a blown motor but would need cash on top.

    nothing much different about my jetta besides its lower (thank you Florida flat roads), smoked clear long turns w/ fogs, and a vr6 lip (beat).. oh and a sticker bombed wink mirror.

    just ticked 160k miles also but still runs great, like i said i just drove it from philly pa to h2o, then down to Florida.. 1500 miles in 4 days, now i drive 75 miles a day for work. i'd drive it back to pa in a heartbeat.
