Since I've been 16 years old, I have always owned a Volkswagen. My VW's include;
1994 Volkswagen Jetta GL (First modded MKIII Jetta in Calgary back in the day)
1999 Volkswagen Jetta GL
1999 Volkswagen Jetta GLS VR6
2002 VW GTI 1.8t
2002 Audi A4 1.8t
2002 VW Jetta GLI 24V VR6
So buying something non-vw was tough. My primary reluctance probably had to do with large part not being part of the VW community. I know I haven't been an active member recently, but believe me I frequent the NVD website and the Vortex regularily. But I realized that I can still be passionate about VW's, but just not drive one.
Now on to the car;
First here are the pics. These pics were taken during delivery, the only planned mods for this car are window tint.
Car has sport package (which gives it 18" wheels, sport suspension, and the sweetest seats ever, they even have electric adjusting side bolsters)and the car has premium package (Dakota leather, Logic 7, and a bunch of other stupid stuff that should be standard)
The car is absolutely amazing. There is no question the car handles like a dream. If you have never driven a 3 series BMW with a sport package, its worth giving it a try. My 3 series, far outhandles my 99 Jetta VR6 with H&R Coilovers, outhandles my 2002 GTI with FK coilovers, and handles better than my 2002 Audi A4 1.8T.
The interior is a little bland in this car, personally I liked my Audi interior better, however, the quality, fit and finish are awesome.
Well, that's it for now, I welcome comments!!!
