wasnt manual, way lower mpg, limited power because the twin clutch trans sucks and slips at higher power. And I got a good deal on the VW, If i didnt get a good deal I wouldnt have traded it in

Long over due for an update!

So far I have the blue headlight bulbs, and yellow fogs.

Got APR Stage 2 when it was on sale!

Euroswitch Installed!

Looks good bro! If you are looking to get any suspension components let me know. I just upgraded my entire suspension system with KW V3s, Whiteline Suspension Bushings and Whiteline Sway Bars/End Links.

Car looks great, you planning on getting wheels?

Just be conservative on the gas. I actually got 42.2 which is the highest I've ever seen going from Chicago to Minneapolis.

**pbassist12** · 05-07-2013 10:38 PM
