Lily has a new stable mate. My son went with me to get him and he drove Lily home. He's just what I've been looking for. Everyone say hello to my new daily driver "project car". We drove home into a rainstorm so I'll have to wait to shoot some more pics. This one will have to do for a starter.

Nice TS! How many miles are on him and where did you locate him? I'm in the process of buying a silver '03 TS and considering a black '04 TS. I would have to sale one though. Have fun!

He has 56K on him after the trip home from Alabama. Good luck on your search.

I've owned two Turbo S's, and I am dying to own one again. My red 03 Turbo S was my favorite car I ever owned, and my first VW was my 02 Platinum Gray Turbo S. I miss my clutch!


Congratulations, and Have Fun!
