I love my ws6 but I'll still admit that I don't mind the vdub. I'm a sucker for mklV golfs and jettas not the fastest cars obvously but I think they look awesome.

Is it me or are the tires not wide enough for the rims.. the side walls look awfully angled and deformed...they look a size too narrow

Of course. It said YurJDMcarSux or something retarded like that. My JDM car has more FWHP than his dub...and it's AWD.

It was so low the exhaust was sparking on bumps, with some idiotic stretch and poke setup to complete the eurotrash package.

VW's are my most hated cars, I cant stand the way their gearboxes feel. Maybe the new ones are better but the kind like pictured above I truly hate with a passion. An old buddy of mine had a VR6 that he thought was hella fast, I used to **** with him bad about how slow it really was. He told me to stretch it out once and I told him I could talk on the cell phone, eat a sandwhich, and beat it all at the same time it was so slow LOL. It wasn't THAT bad, but he used to always talk **** to my other friend with a boosted civic (a nice one) saying all he would need blah blah to smoke that ricer POS. He never said anything to me.

But I always eye a newer Jetta because they almost always have a fine chick behind the wheel.

The slushboxes are kinda whack man. Mine has a 6 speed and I swear the one in my old SS with a bad 3 and 4th gear with a slipping clutch was better than this one and it has a new clutch!
Thank god It's all stock and no one cares about it lol. It's a fun car though, the V6 is ok for what it is but by no means is it fast.
