    As the title says, I aquired a mk3 VRTurbo through a trade and would like to sell it. This car is absolutely amazing and extremely fast. The part I like most is its drivability in a normal situation. I am extremely impressed with it however my girl does not want me to have another car

    Anyways now it is for sale for 5k.

    Yeah, the bay is one of the cleanest I've seen. And the interior is clean, the polka dots grow on you as you own the car

    Sounds to me like $40 worth of paint and fabric could fix all those "problems" that one might have. Some people.

    It's baby blue and polka dots. This would be turned into my show car if I were to buy it and spending the money on the fabric I would like and to not ghetto rattle can it would be more expensive than what I'd be willing to spend. It's a personal opinion. It's a lack of time to do it and money to spend that's tied up elsewhere. GLWS
