Most mechanics shops in Hamburg are questionable. Think that guy lives out this way. Believe I posted him last summer.

Hey, that’s the one. hahahaha Yeah I see it all the time and had a brain fart on coloring and setup. I see it in the garage more than out. lol Guessing that is yours then? I’m not a fan of stanced out cars, but I will definitely make an exception to this one. Something about it is sweet as shit!

Edit: I know what it is… Its ridiculously lowered, but you don’t have the wheels tucked and it doesn’t have camber issues. A big thumbs up to this car for that reason. Definitely a proper lower!

Definitely not mine. Its Steve’s from VWOP as mentioned above. I guess I’m just used to the world of shitty VWs where this car isn’t low at all and the fact that he has a modern motor swap in it makes it more performance oriented. Its been around for a while, and its just tits.

Yeah I wasn’t awake this morning and missed the post saying who owned it. Never saw the car till I started driving down that street all the time to go to a friends. That car is really sick! I know it doesn’t see rain and would like to stop and actually check it out completely some time. I do dig the setup completely and you don’t see well done cars like this very often.

You probably saw me, I know I saw you. And many other cars cruising down main, from what I can only assume was cruise night.
