90' Jetta,5spd. It was my dad's old car,redone stereo,racing suspension(sway bars,strut braces,shocks & springs),overhauled brakes. It was fun to drive around in,when it started and your foot was 100% on the floor. It would kill a battery almost instantly,fuel pump whined,worse idling habits the list went on forever. It has the dreaded Digifant management system,which is 100x more problematic then it should be. Consumer Reports Top 10 cars to stay away from of all time(no joke). It's a shame I would have made it a rally car,stripped it of weight,give it some more ponies and I was good to go. Sadly I got fed up with it and searched for my first car to buy,on came the Boxster.
