I sold the Jetta today!

And added the newest member of the Ryan K household:
Link to more Pictures





I should have her next weekend if all goes as planned.

She is an 04 GTO with Silver paint, Black leather, and a 6 speed. She has a mear 7500 miles on the clock and used to belong to GM corp. Got her for a smokin' price (good thing too, it'll make it easier to be the daily driver).

Yea! Ryan Happy!

When you see the gas bill you'll probably wish you still had the Jetta for a daily. But the Goat will give you something to put your old LS1 parts on.

That'll be way more fun than the Jetta and you won't have to feel the shame of having the cool car in the garage while you suffer with the commuter Nice move!

Does this mean the camaro is nearing the end of it's development stage and shifting your resources and attention to the new car?

Sweet, dude I'll take that over a freakin Jetta any day. Who gives a **** what gas costs.

Hell, I would trade my truck for a GTO right now if I could afford it. I woulda gone with the '05, though.

I would have too, but for over $11,000.00 less I'll take a slightly used 04.
