seeing how beck made a thread and got alot of input, here is my thread…as you can see, i have a little more coin…but my car has a lot less potential. What do you think I should do with this money? FYI: the MK5 gti tuning market is dead… theres a few cold air intakes,exhausts and suspensions out there, thats about it… as of yet there is no big turbo kits or anything cool yet. What do you think I should do…and no selling my car is not a option. obviously this is not my life savings, this is money I have that I can “use” towards god knows what. ---

get a loan for my car, take the 6k as money down on the loan. have a low payment for the s2k and then sell your car and throw that at the loan 🙂 ---

didnt u make a thread earlier today about trading your GTi for a WRX? heres my opinion (if u still want to do that): take the 6 grand and put it down on the WRX and then your payments will be lower (assuming u r financing the GTi) ---

is this an all-around question? or are u looking for opinions on automotive stuff that you can do. you could always buy a hatch and boost it like u’ve been wanting to do. and make a :snky: car then keep ur gti for a DD. ---
