It's a BIG day today
« on: November 15, 2011, 02:22:19 am »
So today!!! In less then 12 hours I'm going to the dealer to pick up out newest purchase, 2006 VW Jetta TDI loaded(everything but leather) its more cost effective at the moment to buy a new car then to try and salvage what's left of my motor while still in school.

I know about the issues PDs have and I'm not worried on it, I'll have some pictures up later today :D all I know it's gray lol

I just want something that drives and I dont have to worry about that if it breaks i call a tow truck and they take it to a dealer and fix it!

and a MK6 Golf 2 door 2.5 5 Speed is the choice
