Granted at the price point a WRX at that price would either be beat as fuck or have 100k+ miles or both.

> I’m sure I am forgetting some things. The car runs excellent and is very reliable. All the power options work. The Power sunroof also works perfectly. Even the A/C and cruise control work. The car has 150,000 miles on the car, with only 10k on the motor and transmission. The only issues with the car are it has a slight oil leak, which I believe is coming from the oil pan. I just checked it once a week and had to add very little. The transmission also on occasion slightly grinds going into third at high rpm’s. The body is in decent shape with no rust. The body does have some hail damage on it. It is not real bad though, it never bothered me. I have disclosed everything I can think of about the car. The only thing this car needs to be finished is a front mount intercooler and you have a nicely set up car. I lost interest in the car after getting my GSX-R 750. So it is time for someone else to enjoy it. I’m prepared to take a huge loss on the car for all the money I have put into it. I’m looking for $5000 for the car. I will also include some misc parts I have laying around with the car. I have receipts for most of the parts put into the car. I believe they add up to around $8000. So I’m already taking a huge loss on this car at $5000, so please no lowballers.

My friends 02 Jetta GLS 1.8T 5 speed.

Sport package, Eibach springs, tint, pretty much every option you can get in a Jetta (leather, heated seats, monsoon etc etc). He’s the 2nd owner but I’ve been good friends with both owners since it was new. This car has really been taken care of. It’s been to one autocross novice school and that is all the racing it’s ever seen.

He’s asking 11k. Car only has around 63k miles.

Ha… no, he took delivery of his brand new 325Ci last night. Stopped by my house and took me for a spin, told him I wasn’t going to drive it until he was past the break in period.
