    A slew of pricey stuff my wife hates me for.
    Is the fire stick to be used with the gimp suit?

    Right up the road from me! Warner is a nice town. Go to the Foothills for breakfast and get a cinnamon roll... best thing ever!

    Slow? I don't think so. What did you have before? A Trans Am with a 5.7L? New VW is about the same and it's the slowest in this current comparison

    http://www.caranddriver.com/compari...ng-performance-data-and-complete-specs-page-5

    Here's a test for a T/A from the same source

    http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews...iversary-firehawk-specialty-file-specs-page-3

    Anything running near 5 seconds 0-60 and 1/4 mile in the 13s stock is not slow to me

    I haven't raced one recently. But even when I had my Grand Am, they couldn't keep up. And if they touch a puddle, they stop working.

    I used to have an 1988 Fiero GT. Wasn't the fastest car, but cornered like crazy.

    I only gremlins I had in my Scirocco was that I would break the CV's on my axles. Then again maybe launching at 4000-5000 RPM's on a regular basis had something to do with that :rolleyes:

    We love the town! That place is great, and you need to go to The Local for a grilled BBQ pulled pork and cheese sandwich.

    Do I get to keep my man card because of the bike? I can drive a stick shift, they just don't make them in the class of vehicle I have and there's no way I'm buying a Dodge...
    You can't get any of the half ton trucks with a stick shift anymore.
    Pretty sure I get to take credit for the gimp suit :anonymous:

    How is your DR? I've been thinking about selling mine. Only rode it a handful of times last year.

    we've had 2 vw's in the family and won't own them ever again. they slowly self destructed after the warranty was up. on my mom's car the switches for the trunk and gas door would break all the time, so you couldn't open either. which sucked. if you needed gas. or had groceries. we had those replaced 3 times i believe. and intermittently it wouldn't start as if the battery was dead. but if you came back a few hours later it would start right up

    I love it. I didn't put a ton of miles on it, but I had fun with it. Is yours an S or SE model and what year is it? I put way too much money into mine, new seat, tank, tires, exhaust, wheels and I forget what else. All things that could be transferred to a new model though...

    Some of the 80's ones were awful, Rabbits in particular. I guess they got a little better in the 90's but then seems as they went downhill again.
