Finally! My new (to me) 1.8T Golf MK4 (Replacing my previously stolen Integra)


Full imgur album here.It has been months since my Integra was stolen. (Full saga on that roller coaster of emotions can be found here, if you're interested.) Finally found something to upgrade to and now I couldn't be happier.I've never been a VW fan, I always appreciated them when I would see them around, but never got to drive one before and was always a JDM kind of guy. When I went to the car lot I wasn't even originally going there for this car, but a manual early 2000's Nismo Sentra. After driving this thing though, I fell in absolute love and had to have it. Bonus too is that, other than a touch display entertainment system in the front, it's completely stock.All that's left now is to get to work on fixing the little older car silly things. The steering shakes a bit when I apply brakes, apparently this is a common issue though, and something is rattling around in the exhaust occasionally. Nothing major and will have it fixed by the end of the month as I get the tools and parts shipped here.For anyone else who goes through the incredibly stressful event of having your car stolen, just keep at it. Don't let that one event define you or stand in your way of your goals. I thought I was 100% fucked when my car was stolen, but I managed to squeak by into an ever better position than when I started, not just with this car, but also in life.Special thanks to everyone on Reddit too, who provided words of encouragement and showed some love when I was struggling with what to do next. via /r/cars http://ift.tt/2uw3w8W
