Well I guess I'll get in on the act. My wife and I recently purchased an 03 silver classic, AT, leather, optioned out with only 28k on the clock. I found the site while looking for reviews and info and after the purchase figured I'd join up. For those that cross forums like I do, I'm also on NASIOC with the same screen name.
I've gone through my fair share of cars from a tercel, impreza wagon, miata, and the one that just got sold was a white golf K2 lowered on some nice white 17"s.
With the first baby on the way in Jan. it was time to get back to the safety of AWD and the comfort/ reliablity of a stock vehicle. So far I love this car and its the smoothest thing I've ever owned.
Oh and according to the idiot thats linked on the front page I own two of the ugliest cars in the world as the wife drives an 03 AWD Honda Element. Oh well function over form, but I think they both look pretty unique.
With all that said, um......Hi.
all aboard the newbie train

Guess us new guys will just have to reply to each other. Don't know where the "oldtimers" are. Must have real jobs or something <g>.speedymatt wrote:Well I guess I'll get in on the act.

feel good...the Prius and the Pontiac Aztec are far uglier IMHO!speedymatt wrote: I own two of the ugliest cars in the world as the wife drives an 03 AWD Honda Element. Oh well function over form, but I think they both look pretty unique.

Re: all aboard the newbie train
with our first babe due in january i had two choices it was either dump money into the K2 with 115k on the clock and an uncertain future, and return it to stock. or bite the bullet and go for a one previous owner, low mileage car that will last quite a bit without worry. As far as fun the 2.slow was a great car it handled well lowered, was torquey, looked great lowered on the 17"s, and of course came with the heated seats that i so miss. but as far as family function, comfort, and peice of mind, the baja has it beat hands down.Zooom wrote:BTW...as a VW man primarily...why did you get rid of that car!speedymatt wrote: and the one that just got sold was a white golf K2 lowered on some nice white 17"s.
