Default got a 96' jetta gls with 50k miles for $300 [cha ching!]

today was a good day. i scored a 96' jetta gls with 50k miles for..


$300

yessssssss, $300. my plan is to get it detailed and sell it for what its REALLY worth. theres NOTHING wrong with the car [it hasnt been driven in 2 years and it was garaged/covered]. i bought it from some 60 year old rich lady who loves her new ragtop pt cruiser

im going to use the $ toward the 'bobo wants an elantra [tiburon?]'' fund'.

thanks. after reading all the reviews on edmunds, 80% of the people that reviewed their jetta said that they had some kind of ecu or electrical problem. hopefully, ill have the car sold in a week or two..

it weighs over 3K pounds so it won't blow away the 1/4 mile but what daily driver has 1/4 mile to stomp the throttle? the 2.7 and the 6 gear manual haul ass. it's one'o'those things you just have to drive to understand

2008 will bring about the 3.3 litre tib, oh MAN
