    97 GTI for sale, hate to see/let her go! I had to have this car the minute i laid eyes on her in jun of '11. I bought her from a fellow dubber from the northside(chicago) BUt now i have to let her go. Reason being i need a daily driver and my family has decided i need something newer so the time has come to let her go.
    Car is clean, solid, and rust free, vr6 does not smoke,she goes like stink and has the potential to bring the stupid out of you!!

    I'm asking 4,500 obo...and that includes all the following extra parts i have that will go with the car;
    PEM C2 chip/module
    extra euro bumper
    front lip,headlights,ecu,front subframe complete with axles etc.. and anything else i have collected for her that would benefit the new owner.
    oh..i forgot to mention a set of unpolished c4 salad shooter(corvette wheels)Really an amazing
    deal as i just want the car to go to a good home.

    ENGINE
    2.8 VR6/Timing belt and water pump done at 110
    mileage currently at 134070..approx. as im still driving it.
    ABD short ram intake.
    neuspeed front tower brace(not installed)
    polished manifold(needs a buffing though)
    fresh tune-up(spark plugs wires) as of last summer.
    oil change every 3months.

    DRIVETRAIN
    FK Silverline (fully adjustable) coil-overs
    polyurethane bushings in front.
    drilled rotors in front
    new rotors and calipers as of last summer(june)

    WHEELS
    ESM 002 16x9 & 16x 7.5
    yokohama rears 205/40/16
    falken fronts 195/40/16

    EXHAUST
    Magnaflow Catback.

    BODY
    Colour matching eye brows.
    badgeless grill.
    front bumper textured and shaved.
    corner lights smoked.
    8k H.I.D's.
    Yellow highs.
    shaved hatch/rear wiper delete.
    euro fender flares.

    Stock interior with GTI floor mats.
    alpine head unit.

    Thats all i can remember.

    Now to be fair i have to list the flaws/issues;
    I have bypassed the heater core(needs a new one)
    also the auxilary water pump will need to be replaced soon.
    needs new headlight switch.
    also has the CELwhich is due to the Well documented SAI which is why i am offering the CHIP(will delete SAI) and backup ECU

    Just recently had her at mobile one to fix the pass. front door. replaced the passenger side rear control arm bolt to body..they also replaced shifter bushings on tranny amongst other things(have all receipts)

    So there you have it...I have tried to be as honest as i possibly can about the car..she starts runs/pulls hard and drives..but will need some slight TLC to get her in tip top shape.

    Call 773-470-3040 or P.M me if you have any questions.

    Thank you!

    pictures will be posted as soon as i figure out how to.
