My new 2001 GTI VR6. It has a 12v VR6 motor with a 5 speed trans. The car was bone stock when I got it. $9000 with 58,000 miles on it. It has some small dents. The paint is in such great condetion its very hard to see them.

The motor

Had the car for only 26 days and some guy in a van backed into my right side mirror and cracked the hell out of it and cracked the housing.

Just when I ordered a mirror, badgeless grill, and GTI floor mats, and installed my catback my altenator went. Cost to have it repared at a shop $600-$900. So I did it my self. Cost me $280 and took about 3 hrs to put in. A week later the belt rips. Found out the alt. has the wrong pulley on it. So I took off the new pulley and put on the old one. Now the car is all fixed and runs like a dream.

Hey, nice ride, if your looking for a car club check out our site. www.uniquexpressionz.com, we are looking to revamp the club over this winter and but together an even stronger club for next season, looking for people who are really into their cars and like doing car shows, we all know stuff from stereo installation to light autobody and mechanics and really help each other out. We were really big in the car club seen in 2005,2006 and held our own shows but have been kind of floating since and looking to get fully back into the scene, so if your interested hit us up....thanks...Ribbs
