True. Worth the risk though. I prefer to be on a bike leaning into corners than a caged driver any day... apart from maybe a rainy day :)

Don't forget the 60 - 0 time of these things. My bike will do 0 - 60, back to 0, then back to 60 faster than a Porsche 944 :D

What I drive depends on either the mood or the weather. Most of the time the weather dictates my mood.

I picked this up last Saturday ... 2003 GTI 20th Anniversary Edition.

Subtle colour :)

Good move picking up a veedub, though...

I had a 97 Jetta (still have it) so I've been into dubs for a while. However it's pretty much a piece of shlt now. It has too many little things wrong with it. It's a 2.0 automatic and I will admit, I have dogged the hell out of hte car and have not taken too much care of it in the recent years, and the thing is on it's last legs.

I plan on taking much more care of this car, and I'm also getting it with a lot less miles than my previous one. I'm learning stick as I go right now and still drive my old jetta because I don't have confidence in the stick yet. I practice like about an hour a day after work though, and I am pretty confident that by next week I'll have it down perfectly. Last night I only stalled like 2 times going into first gear, and both times were on this steep hill I'm practicing on.
