some texas redneck posted:My USDM petrol car gets less than 1/2 of that. My TDI golf has 140hp, 240lb/feet and gets 41 combined tank average  It gets off the line just as well as my old 1.8t GLI did, but it's a hell of a lot more fun to drive. Just pisses me off that diesel has gone up over a dollar since I bought it a year ago.

Didn't you recently move from TX to CO? That would account for 20 cents of your price difference.

He's the indy shop in Washoe Valley. He's helped me buy and sell a few. The best part is he's no-BS. He'll tell you if the car is a junker, how it's been maintained, etc. If you don't have the number, shoot me an email/PM and I'll send it to you.

When I bought the car in July 11, diesel was cheaper than unleaded  Now it 3.85 vs 3.22.At least it went down 15 cents yesterday. The light came on right as I pulled in to the station. 13.7 gallons and got 565 miles out of the tank. Best I ever got in the GLI was 330, and they both took about the same amount to fill up.

 Couldn't decide if this belonged in here or in the horrible mechanical failures thread when it inevitably tipped over or took out a traffic light.

Holy gently caress. The rear isn't great but it's alright. That front end though. God drat. It'd look probably really good if it was a stock front end.

If they used the Camaro front end too it might've looked...okay(?), at least it's somewhat squared off. I'll be damned if I'm doing the photoshop though.

My first thought is that the front end of that car looks like a 350Z that's been kicked in.

The front end has me thinking Pontiac Sunfire. No body kit should make anyone think Pontiac Sunfire.

My neighbour has the Chrysler version of the starion (conquest is it?). It is so much fun to drive, I'm so jealous of it. Then we have this thing.
