    I still have to go with the GTI. That 635csi is much bigger in comparison and I couldn't flog it around the track like I could the GTI.

    Man I thought you were cool enough that you wouldn't have to resort to such a thing. Me on the other hand used my mighty Fire Arrow & got me a fine co-driver & wife. :biggrin5:

    Me in that Stance Crowd ..... :lol: now that is the funniest this I have heard ALL YEAR.

    If I ever do that do not hit me. Please shoot me in the head at close range several times.

    Take this post to court and tell them I told you to do it because I went insane.

    I would have to go with the BMW. Back in the early 90's a buddy let me test drive his M6 version for a few days to try and convince me to take it off his hands. Great car! I regret not getting it to this day, but at the time I was a single parent with two kids in high school and on that rare occasion good sense won out.

    For the first one I have to pick GTI as I loved mine. That is until Chuck lets me drive his Miata. Then I may change my mind.

    For the second 635 CSi with the buffalo leather interior option.

    GTI is now 2-0 with a solid victory over the BMW.

    As an aside, I've spent half a lifetime driving cool cars, and never once has it succeeded in attracting a woman whose attention I wanted. My experience is that fancy cars are a net negative with women as a whole. In fact, my wife married me despite my irrational car choices. The opposite might not be true. The other day I saw a moderately attractive youngish woman driving an air cooled 911. After stuffing my tongue back into my agape gob, I came to my senses, realizing that this skinny, married, balding and drunk 47-year-old had no chance.

    But back to much more important issues. Who's next for our two-time champ the Rabbit GTI?

    Would you rather...

    Bronco. It suits all my needs in an only car and they will rust away before they break if you take care of them.

    A pure stock Bronco with vacuum windshield wipers, poor heater, skinny tires, tinny sounding radio and poor gas mileage just would not be my cup of tea for a daily driver any more .... Now a very nicely modified one as a second vehicle that's another story but for all around use I still grudgingly have to pick the GTI.

    No contest the GTI. Although it would be entertaining to sit in my lawn chair drinking a beer & watching that Bronco become a rust colored stain on the drive.
