Owner Member Name: HAZ
Year: 1998
Make: VW
Model: GTI
Color: Yellow

Summary of the car: My "new to me" gti I bought in January '07.

Pictures:

Engine Specs:
Stock 2.8 VR6

Suspension & Wheels:
Patec Holeshot coilovers installed 2/20/07
Enkei RS6 18x7 wheels with Falken Ziex 215/35-18 tires

Interior Specs:
Some of the drivers edition parts, which so far I understand are leftovers from the 97 DE model, such as the shift knob and red stitched shift boot and brake boot.

Comments:
For those that noticed, yes the door speakers are broken. It's a bit ghetto at the moment but that will be fixed soon. There is also something else in the interior pic that the previous owner put in the car. I haven't removed it yet because it's not really visible to people looking in. Try to find what im talking about.

There is a small dent on the rear passenger side corner not in the pics. Just thought i'd come clean with that.

Other than that, the car is great.

Im talking about the thing right above the pedals. I said it's not noticeable, but if you know it's there like I do it can bug the hell outta you. lol

hint: ends with "eon"

Whats up with the drive side headlight fitment.

I think it's just a little loose so that's causing it to be recessed a bit.

i don't really care for the grille, and the wheels, but besides that, its a nice car. if you like it though, thats great.

Thanks to all for the honest opinions. I have a few mods in mind but will be buying a Kinetic Motorsports turbo kit for it first. I hope to have the car the way I want it by the end of this year.

Looks like a nice car...I wanted a Ginster VR6 as my first VW sooo bad. I would look at a 2 or 3 bar badgeless grill...they arent too expensive and would really make the front look a lot better IMO.

good luck with the turbo kit, turbo vr's are sweet, and good luck with the car in general.
