buying GTI - couple questions

[bentin]

What about the weight of all the water leaking in? - that's 8.34lbs per gallon. Before you know it, a GTI SE can outweigh a Suburban.

Although it's offset by the surrounding trim flaking apart and leaving the party. Plus the screen slides back under power, moving weight bias back, to where, oops, there's no power.

The flaking trim really hurts the drag coefficient. And so does the driver, as he's sticking his hand out the top to show everyone his car has a sunroof.

Indeed it did. It's a travesty that the US edition didn't get the same, or at least an option for it. Massive difference.

The Canadians are always get screwed on pricing so it's about time they got something for a change.

There many success stories of seat swaps on here leather for plaid?

It's fairly straightforward. Unbolt one, and bolt in the other. Plug in the power seat module if needed, then plug in the seat heaters and airbag connectors and you're good to go.

I’d like the solid button 8” screen in my rabbit. Fender in my wife’s alltrack is nice, but my hearing is so jacked the Helix sub/amp does very well. I don’t like the all touch 8” so it’s a trade off.

the Canadian rabbit checked all my boxes too, sadly I’m too far south for one. Sunroof and leather are just about deal breakers for me. But, $3k separating a used rabbit to new MY19 SE, if pounce on the SE And pay up for the experience package.

I haven’t paid more than $6/mo for satellite radio In years (excluding the lifetime account that came on my lemon Jeep). We spend weeks at a time in the back country In the Tacoma... streaming services are worthless with no cell service.

Among your options, i would pick Urano grey as its unique to this MY and trim.

 

[Corprin]

For other people it’s a toss up between the blue and gray. Blue is loud, Gray is more subdued.

I chose white because I like white cars most, and it’s more rare than the blue and gray.

These are jokes, right? White's the most popular car color for the last few years running. I have white, and like it, but would have done Cornflower or Urano if the Rabbit had been available when I bought mine.

I think Corprin meant more rare amongst Rabbits. (1000 gray 1000 cornflower blue 500 white and 500 black), I understand there will only be 3000 total for the US in 2019.

Aha, thanks. The special colors just seem like most of the reason to do a Rabbit though.

Yeah. Of the rabbits black and white are more rare than blue and gray. The rabbit has all the good bits (brakes, diff, lights, etc) but none of the things I didn’t want (leather or sunroof).

I had choice of all four colors and both trans in them. I chose a white manual because it’s what I liked most. .

Well you clearly have excellent taste.
