    I am moving to colorado springs on the 17 of September from Germany. I am wondering how the dub sean is out there. I drive a MKIV GTI 1.8t+. It has sport suspension, stage 2 turbo, stage three APR ECU, Eurojet FMIC, all the sway bars and strut bars, plus a harness bar. Im just looking for some good people to chill with and maybe some new friends. Feel free to PM me.

    picture was taken before the FMIC



    I never saw a beast feel sorry for its self.

    Welcome to the area! You can check out www.edition719.com to connect with the local Colorado Springs guys. As a fair warning the facebook page has had more traffic than the forums recently.

    Hope you enjoyed the quality workmanship done by master mechanics in Germany!

    Ya won't get that here! You'll get lotsa people that charge $175an hr and up for garage time and talk a bunch but will come back and say "i tried, i couldnt do it, or I'm sorry or no, its not finished,or well, lets talk aout that, or the most famous.... It's gonna cost a lil more money!

    719 scene seems pretty solid to me. I just moved to the Springs almost a month ago and I just happened to drive by a Dub GTG after I was leaving the Gym one night. Didn't stop by and say waddup because I'm not to into the GTG scene anymore really. I like car shows like DATR but not much into hanging out. Saw quite a few 719 people representing at DATR last Sat though so that was cool. I'd say it's a pretty solid scene here for sure. BTW, Nice ride.
