Hey folks, I know I don't post much, just wanted to share the news. Replaced my gas sucking 2000 Xterra with my new baby. My Fiance will be driving the Beetle now, just need to get the AC fixed. I will get some better pics up in a day or two.
09 Rabbit 2.5l with tiptronic. Love it

i had a 2007 rabbit, loved it. my one pet peeve was that you CANNOT open the windows in the rain, period. water pours in. same goes for morning dew on the roof, it'll be in your lap. other than that, awesome car, have fun with it.

The beetle was originally my Fiance's, she gave it to me cause of a check engine light and it couldn't get inspected so she bought a new car. I figured out the check engine and it was mine. It now has 185k on it and still runs like a champ. Her son will now be driving her PT cruiser.

Here is another pic of the Rabbit with the new wheels.
