Default here we go guys! my new ride.

as many of you know, i got rid of the jacked up jimmy.
gas was getting bad on it, more money invested in that thing than i do in college.
15k to be exact on how much i put in on that truck.

so i traded it in for 2500.....shoot me
for a 2001 VW Passat. 4 door. 2.8L 5speed
the thing is pretty quick, but very fuel efficient. here is the picture of the car.
i think im gonna stay on here for awhile not too found of other forums.

here are acouple pictures, should have more up soon.




tell me what you guys think!
thanks,
Dan

Nice car... I think you should do something along these lines:



A simple lip kit that would replace the black plastic and can be painted to match, some rims, de-badge grille and a "Bowser" style hood will give that car a whole new look... some tinted tails... clear signals... 2 inches lower... It'd look great!

kinda "Plain-Jane" (for now, i hope) but still a nice car-way more room inside than the Jimmy/Blazer's have.

hope you enjoy your new ride, and it'd great if you did stick around here. who knows, maybe you'll find another "toy" in the near future to get dirty once in a while.

Are you making payments? Because an extra 2500 in payments isnt gonna kill you, and you could have had a weekend warrior! but good luck with that car, I have heard Vw sucks and Vw rocks, but idk who to trust.... Looks like you can play with it though.... nice lil 5 speed
