Well, since I sold the Audi S4, i needed a new "to and from car". I told myself after the S4, I want to get something reliable and something that is still fun to drive. So I got one of those "deals so good it's hard to pass up" type things. Here it is: 2008 "United Gray" Vw Rabbit. It's a 2-door, 5-speed, with all the bells and whistles including heated seats, i-pod adapter etc. I was originally looking at the GTI or R32 but i figured since this is going to be my DD and i am on the lookout for a nice fast project car in addition, the GTI or R32 would not work. I like it, it gets good gas mileage and is a blast to drive. The only thing I plan on doing to it is wheels, tint, and lowering springs. I plan to save the rest of my "mod money" for the new project. Here are some quick pics (sorry for it being dirty):

Really nice. It looks like you got everything but a carwash before leaving the dealer.
