    Turning in Lease tomorrow, should I leave hints?

    I'm turning in my 2011 4 Door DSG GTI tomorrow to pick up my new car. It was a great car... 24k miles, but 3 years goes fast. Anyhow, I have APR Stage I with 4 programs... should I scribble APR (my code) 1-stock, 2-91, 3-93, 4-Valet somewhere inside the owners manual for the next driver?

    2015 Mk7 GTI recall?

    http://jalopnik.com/dealers-ordered-to-stop-selling-some-2015-volkswagen-gt-1601656839/all Guess they're working out the bugs with the new production line in mexico. At least they found it early rather than much later. I wonder if this will delay the introduction of the standard Golf mk7.

    Consumer reports loves BMW M235i...

    I'm actually surprised that it scored so well among the Camry/Accord crowd of reviewers... http://jalopnik.com/consumer-reports-says-the-bmw-m235i-is-better-than-a-po-1597915268 It scored a 98/100, which was only 1 less than the Tesla Model S. I knew it was a pretty sweet car, now I can point...

    Today is one of those days I dislike the GTI's wheels.

    Well I hate NYC roads. Hit another pothole on the BQE on my way home, and blew out another tire. This is the 4th one lol. Good thing I got tire insurance. But replacing them is still a pain. 18inch wheels suck in NYC. If I wasn't turning in the car I'd be buying a set of 17s by now. Makes the...

    My lease is expiring, help me chose a new color

    My GTI lease is expiring. I have become a convert to Superior Interiors. However I am looking into AWD, and I have a sick obsession with LEDs... as in I always felt my GTI needed MOAR LEDs. So I think I'm going to go order myself an A3 with MOAR LEDs. But now I'm in a conundrum about the color...

    Audi Y U NO give me S3 Hatch? GLA 45 AMG it is...

    http://www.carscoops.com/2013/08/spied-new-mercedes-gla-45-amg-blurs.html Cause SUV = automatically available in the US... The funny part is that the GLA 250 is a lifted A class... the AMG drops it again.... so... it's an longer A class? The 7 speed DCT, AWD, and 355hp... 332ftlbs of torque...

    Top Gear Commercial zinged me today...

    It asked me... Do you have a second set of floor mats on top of your floor mats to keep your first set of floor mats clean? Sadly the answer is yes... my GTI came with the all weather mats... which I keep on top of... not in place of the carpeted floor mats... Which keeps the carpeted ones...

    Somedays my GTI impresses me more than others.

    Also all the people who work at Costco have no idea what a GTI can hold... They all said, no you can't fit the TV in that car... Long story short... my 6 year old TV died and I needed a replacement. So I measured the GTI cargo area and head to Costco... Had a tough choice between a 55 and 60...

    http://jalopnik.com/2015-mercedes-benz-gla-this-is-much-more-of-it-1133772137 Rumors are they may do an AMG run of this model too along with the CLA... Looks like a decent Q3 competitor... and it actually looks somewhat wagon/hatch like.... Closer to the regular A class than I imagined they...

    http://plays-with-cars.kinja.com/why-your-next-unreliable-luxury-car-should-come-from-ca-814250605 Apparently they offer you a 6 year bumper to bumper warranty lol... Wonder if I should pick up an Audi this way. I assume it doesn't cover mods... But if you're worried about reliability, this...

    SOLD! SOLD! SOLD! I recently upgraded from the RNS-315 to a RNS-510 so I'm selling the RNS-315. TBH it's much faster to use than the RNS-510... (510 feels so laggy in comparison lol). This is a drop in upgrade for those of you with the base radio RCD310 and the higher radio RCD510 It's the...

    Purely for Laughs, HID City Lights?

    I was looking at the backup light thread and followed it to mkV and ended up seeing a 15w HID kit for backup lights, which also can be T10 based. I was tempted to get a kit just to make my rear camera install easier (and light it better) but realized you could probably fit these into all sorts...
