I loved it, but got rid of it due to the bills just being too high, and got a MK6 with DSG and K04

However, that car, while in pretty good shape was just not doing it for me, being DSG and kind of featureless. No sunroof, spund system, LSD, and i just really santed a newer manual back with the potential to make 400 hp.
So, i just bought this from a member on here - nice guy! Fully loaded SE, Performance package, lighting package, sound package. And most importantly, manual! Only comes with lowering springs and nice enkei raijin wheels which im super stoked about, and 60k miles.
Its getting delivered to me tomorrow, fingers crossed....
