did you spray clear over the stickers?

Nah, but I will. I need to get some PVA and brush all over the stuff that's sticking up in the corners then clear coat it.

There was a classic car show on Main Street in my town tonight. It was Chevy night, so you'll see lots of Camaro's, Nova's, And Chevelle's.
I snapped a few ****ty pictures on my S5 and figured you guys might enjoy it.

Album here: http://imgur.com/a/0W2WO

A few highlights

1914 Detroit Electric

1959 Austin Healey Sprite

1932 Ford Roadster

1969 American Motor Company AMX

Nice to see some JDM fans here too

I'm currently driving a 2010 VW Polo 6R 1.2 as first car, but im gonna swap it next year. Planned is either a 2012+ or a 2016 Subaru Impreza WRX STI. Mods on the Polo are not really made, thats the car not worth

Mainly upgraded the features and some nice wheels.

It's not that I'm not satisfied with my VW and I would like to take a tour myself

. But I'm also a fan of the STI since I first saw one, so point for the Subaru. I really like what I see from the VAG scene in the states, but here that stuff is pretty much boring. The only german car that could make me reconsider is the Mercedes CLA 45 AMG, but thats out of budget.

Yeah, I myself like the WRX STI. But I don't think I would able to buy something Japanese and not have something German. I want to buy a new VW and pick it up from the factory but I'm pretty sure they only make LHD cars there...

You need to get something a bit older

although this Passat...

I saw that one too a few days ago and I must admit, I really like it. But if you see the pricetag on the new R-Line...
We have a Non R-Line as a company car, handles great and drives really well. But in the end it's just a Passat again. A Jetta would be something really uncommon here in germany, at least as a german citizen. But I cant find anything with more than 150HP, so nope.

Yeahhhh, the prices are a bit high. But you get what you pay for I guess. I would just like to go back to a big car tbh...

That's exactly the one that I saw on Facebook a few days ago. We'll see what the prices will be like next year when I say bye bye Polo. My biggest problem here is the VW dealership, they are not really the best at servicing...

I've seen your vinyl purchases and you're on here. If not the former part of that sentence, at least the latter is little true

Btw, I really don't like the grill on the R-Line Passat B8. Rear is baller, but not a fan of the grill...

WhiteHelix · « **Reply #2231 on:** Mon, 13 June 2016, 10:29:24 »

I like the R grill more, it looks not so staid like the normal one. I looked a bit around and prices are quite ok for some models with the big engine. About the same level as the 2016 STI. Damn, you maybe changed my car buying plans ^^

Well, it is a more practical car... Although you will never get a Passat R that sounds the same as a WRX STi

I really like the grille. It's kinda blingy and I like it

Holy **** guys, I find this thread for the first time and find a bunch of VWs. I truly am home.

I have a 2010 TR GTI, I was an R&D car of Cobb since they are based out of Austin and I happen to live here. Currently rocking their 93 stage 1 tune. Love this car, but I plan to get a mk7 Golf R in 2018 some time. Cars are the only other thing I take pictures of, I hope you enjoy a couple of my favorites. I hardly ever take pictures of my own car.

Haha no, although there's a GTI Polo and even a special WRC with the Engine of the Scirocco. 220HP in that car, that's insane.
It's a smaller version of the Golf, less space and the Golf quality is a notch better.
