Talking No More Civic's :)
No more Civic's it looks like for me..I'm out! Haha..looks like I might be purchasing a 2001 VW Golf GTi.. I put some money on it today..I'll know if I get approved later tonight hopefully..insurance ain't nuttin on it..It's awesome..Only $107 down then the next month it's $102 and then it drops to $78 for the next 4 months..and once policy renews for the 1st 6 months it drops to $65 It's a beautiful thing! It has 46k on it..But it's all good..turbo boost haha.. What y'all think? They selling it to me for $12280.

-Kate

P.S. It's $275 a month for the car..So only $14 a week more for the car..

Huge mistake as far as what??? They're not that bad. Fun little car to drive. 1.8 with turbo isn't that bad of a mistake if you'd ask me. There's a lot you can do with it still. Only downfall is that their aftermarket stuff is pretty expensive. That's probably the only reason I really didn't get into euro tuning.

Civics don't hold much value either. Good choice with the vw, I'm sure you'll like it and the extra speed

Mm, nice car, fast and easily upgradable, factory turbo is shiznit.

I used to have a VW, a '97 Golf, man that car had quality issues and I've been reading about quality nightmares w. VWs, apparantly the 4WD Passat is the worst rated car in the industry quality-wise?

Haha. I think that has a lot to do more with it having 26K! in just a year. That's quite a lot of driving in a year seeing that we're given 12-15k a year. That's 14k over the average. I bought my 03 last Feb. and have 21k in a year and a half.

Oh yeah most definitely..But hey it's a car it's meant to be driven! But if I had the right amount they said they'd only give me maybe 11k for it becuz it's a Civic and they don't hold value whatsoever..

I was thinking about trading mine in too. Don't know for what though. Then I thought about it and decided not too cuz I only have like 5g's left to pay. After I pay it off, that's when the real fun starts.

i think people on this board get rid of civics too quickly. No offense but for a GTI? I would have waited for something in the 25k-30k range.

if parts aren't maintained yes. I had a Mazda with a 2.2L turbo in it and it was a nightmare. Oil sender lines and everything having to be replaced.
