The gauges are pretty, but I think it'd make your eyes want to bleed at night.

Oh man...the suspension is hard, so it feels every pebble on the road. but VW Golfs are known to have hard suspensions. But overall car feels solid. No rattle anywhere. I took a 45mph 90 deg. turn, and it had no problem going in.

The gauges are pretty, but I think it'd make your eyes want to bleed at night.

I partially bought the car because of the blue color. When you dim it, they actually give a little blue haze around the numbers. I don't know if this is a feature, or is it my eyes tricking me.

Allow me to throw my 2 cents in...VW motors are a NIGHTMARE to work on. And OEM parts can get quite pricey. Back when I was in automitive school one of the kids in my class was rebuilding a VR6 and no one could stand helping him with it. And I could be wrong about this, but I remember him spending close to 8 or 9 grand on parts just to get it in stock running condition.

They look nice, yes, but everything about them (IMO) is bass ackwards.

well of course. every foreign car in US is a nightmare to work on. mainly because the US mechanics are trained to work on domestics. My college is learning on Fords and Chevys. I have not seen a single export in their garage.

But if you go to Europe, VWs parts are the cheapest ones around. Fords aren't.

I've always been a huge fan of the 80's VW Rabbits since the first day I've laid eyes on them. I've owned 3 GTI rabbits in the past like this one...

...Unless VW makes a sporty version of the Rabbit Ala the SVT/ST,I'm not interested...Long live the 85 GTI rabbit! BTW when I first saw the ZX3 Focus I always thought they had some resemblances.

VW does make a sporty version of the rabbit...it's called the GTI lol....I had mkII GTI 8v prior to my focus for a year...awesome car and parts for it were dirt cheap!!! some of the newer ones yeah are more expensive...but parts for newer cars are alwasy more expensive.....MKI and MKII vw's are the best ever!
