bad hair day. again.

THE GTI still has the 2nd best resale value in its class. Higher than a Mustang, Mini or Subaru coupe.. I think You just want something different.

NAH... Mexican build. New Silao, Mexico engine plant is to blame. Blame blame blame Meheeco. German stuff is faultless... faultless I tell you. That's the power of Hungarian paprika build.
