Car has been babied and i bought it 100 BONE STOCK and everything done i have done. I will get on it once in a while, but this thing makes no power over 5 grand so i dont BEAT on it. For a 2.slo, this thing pulls very strong and runs awesome. I will not sell this to someone who wont treat it as good as i ever would, i love this car with all of my heart and i wish i could keep it but im growing up and need a lil truck or something more practical for my needs/work. Many hours have been put into this car and nothing is half azzed.

The CONS dun dun dun

-Car does leak a lil oil and coolant. Very slowly, but surely. Coolant leak is due to a cracked coolant flange. and oil leak is from the oil cooler o-ring and/or oil pan gasket. very easily fixable, but i dont have the time at the moment.

-Car is missing most of the front end right now. I have a VENTO grille coming from germany via pgperformance but it hasnt arrived yet. Legit, OEM vw part but its not here.

-no front blinkers or dummies either. driver's side lower bumper grille is missing as well. bad luck with german websites lately :p

-Speedo and odometer doesnt work, go figure. Throwing a code because of it.
-Reverse makes noise, like most o2o's.
-Small dent that can easily pulled out on right rear door above door handle.
-Small dent on roof above left rear seat
-Oxidation on hood from bird crap. Not, because of me.
-Rock chips on left front fender.
-Small bend/dent on the bottom of left front door.
-Typical 15 year old lil scratches and tiny dings.
-Crease on front bumper from a snow incident.... dont wanna talk about it


Car is still extremely clean and the clear coat is 100% there. no fading and just clay car and waxed the whole car. I just moved from Washington State so it still needs CA plates and needs a smog. 'smog' so ill have to take care of that first before it sells.


Just browse my flikr and youll see pics of it. Ignore the stupid random pictures haha.

Might have seen this before if your from PNW.

Its a vw AND a truck. What else could you want?

I'd "like" $10K if it sold, with cash on top of yours I wouldn't expect it to equal 10. Lmk
