2010 VW GTI - White One!

[Mike]

Got a stellar deal at Alexandria VW. $2k less than even the best deals I've seen reported on other forums. I was between this and the MS3. While the power of the MS3 is silly awesome, it's a much less refined car... Pretty much everywhere you look. I was concerned the 200hp wouldn't be enough, but it definitely is; great powerband/scoot whenever. Funny, I always said I'd never own a new car, and I'd never own a VW. I pray to the Bavarian gods that I got a good one.

Specs:
2010 VW GTI
Color: Candy White
Options: Bluetooth, Sunroof, iPod Kit (wasn't supposed to have this... I didn't pay for it... just happened to notice it after about 30 miles of owning it), Mat kit, and HIDs.

Put 50 miles on it tonight (odometer now reads 60). Can't wait to start going on road trips and not hating driving to the store.

No modification plans. I originally thought the 17" base wheels would be a temporary thing (the 18s are ugly), but they've grown on me. Regardless, there are a million options out there, and all sorts of wheels seem to look great on these things (saw C4 wheels on one... looked great). I like the idea of a chip, but again, the 200hp is plenty for now. I'm sure, though, that +50hp and +100ft-lbs for $600 will slowly eat at me.

Anybody want a track-ready Civic on the cheap?
