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.

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

Rep Power: 0 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?

Rep Power: 247 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..

Rep Power: 0 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.

Rep Power: 0 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.
