this car was supposed to be sold with my house to a friend but the deal has since gone south because he cant get a mortgage. so im passing a good deal on to the forum members who may need a new dependable car for a decent price. the car was my daily driver when i lived in buffalo. it has a free and clear NYS title. it has been sitting in my garage since i left for SoCal so it will need a new battery which i will obviously have one put in for a buyer. some specs. 2008 candy white VW Rabbit S 5 speed. 170hp inline 5 47k miles during the course of my ownership ive installed: -double din pioneer headunit with ipod/iphone connectivity -GTi steering wheel -GTi armrest -GTi e-brake handle comes with steelies and snow tires. the car had an oil change at 45k but i would change the oil regardless since its been sitting again it will prob need a battery since it wasnt on a battery tender but like i said i can have a battery put in the car or you can put one in and ill adjust the price. im posting this on here and DITB before i throw it on ebay. so if youre interested pm me and we can work out a deal. **$8500** here are the pics i took of it right before i put it in storage. ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/XwalkerX1/IMG_5101_zpsfd7a933a.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/XwalkerX1/IMG_5101_zpsfd7a933a.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/XwalkerX1/IMG_5102_zpse1a22cd5.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/XwalkerX1/IMG_5102_zpse1a22cd5.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/XwalkerX1/IMG_5103_zpsa1e901f7.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/XwalkerX1/IMG_5103_zpsa1e901f7.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/XwalkerX1/IMG_5104_zps018bf08d.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/XwalkerX1/IMG_5104_zps018bf08d.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/XwalkerX1/IMG_5100_zps458b4f2e.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/XwalkerX1/IMG_5100_zps458b4f2e.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/XwalkerX1/IMG_5106_zpsddf5765d.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/XwalkerX1/IMG_5106_zpsddf5765d.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/XwalkerX1/IMG_5099_zps515bce03.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/XwalkerX1/IMG_5099_zps515bce03.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/XwalkerX1/IMG_5105_zps0d29c34b.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/XwalkerX1/IMG_5105_zps0d29c34b.jpg) and here is an older pic of the interior but it provides a better view of the headunit ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/XwalkerX1/IMG_3523_zps89a935e1.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/XwalkerX1/IMG_3523_zps89a935e1.jpg) ---

I’ve been in this car a bunch, it’s clean and was well manitained! GLWS Choochie. ---

thanks guys. I feel like I priced this to sell quick so hopefully it can be a smooth transaction for both the buyer and myself since Im 3000 miles away and just need it gone. I just double checked eBay and cars with similar mileage around the same year are ranging anywhere from 10.5k-13.9k ---

Big E and I tried with my Mercedes on Saturday, no luck. everything turns on, just not the car. once the terminals come off the car, nothing works. throw a fresh battery in and you’re fine. car is mint. fire sale for sure. house is rad as well. ---
