Now I'm Lost
New car, a little piece of germany
So, With a baby due in september, I have been pressured to find a decent 4 door sedan. I'v looked around for awhile, and if some of you recall, I was considering trading the zx2 in on a zx5. Well, I passed on the zx5, thank god. A few days ago I was fillin up the zx2 and looked across the street and noticed a decent looking jetta. Well after I was done gasing up, I drove over and took a closer look. No rust, no dents, looked to be in decent shape, and they where only asking $6000 for it (2002). I figured it was the 2.slow with a price tag like that, so I figured I would go in the following day, and take a closer look. Well the next day I got up nice and early, went and checked it out. Turns out it's a 1.8t matched with the lovely 5 speed. Loaded with leather interior, which is in mint shape, power everything including sunroof. Took it for a test drive, and it drove real nice, pulls strong after 1800rpm, and it's stock, never been molested. So I tossed him an offer, and he accepted. Long story short, I will be picking up my new (to me) ride next week!
I will be keeping the zx2 of course, seeing as how it's payed for, I figure I will put it in storage for now, and start a rebuild.
Pics to follow, once it is picked up!

Planning any mods? Bet you cant resist. Itll start with an intake, then an exhaust, then a larger FMIC, then a boost controller. After that its on!

lol funny you should ask. I already ordered a decent CAI, some upgraded piping, and a greddy BOV. I plan to put in a turbo timer, and maybe upgrade the IC before the end of this year. But who knows. I only told myself I would do suspension this year on the zx2, and I went way beyond that, not saying my car is full tilt or anything.
Hahaha!! I knew it! lol Good luck with the new car man.
