Very clean and old school. Great combination. It takes a lot more effort to make a nice old car than a new car.

Not my cup of tea on the wheels, but I understand where you’re coming from and they do fit.

haha yea, its the pizza car. i actually left inferno yesterday, so not anymore, i got sick of my mint recaros smelling like wings LOL

i got the car off of vwvortex. it was down at a firehouse in the Bronx. i wont say how much i paid but i will say i have more than what i paid just in receipts. as far as the wheels they are the OEM wheels for the GLI, BBS RA’s. i prob wont change them, however i want to get some coilovers when it gets nice out then DUMP it. i love driving the car, as someone said its a very oldschool feeling, it sounds nice and vintage. Its a blast. Its no VR but it moves out. its a very different feeling than driving my cobra
