Also it's a CPO so 3 year, 100k mile, no deductible warranty on top of the 16k/10 month factory warranty that's left on the car - it's at 34,000 miles now
all8up: a Golf or Jetta would have been my first and only choice but a few years ago, I had a few customer service issues (nothing to do with the car itself) with a 2002 A4 and the dealership Brookline Audi VW dicked me around like you wouldnt believe and when I complained to Audi (the guy before Len Hunt) I got a stock response letter from some admin that thhey couldnt or wouldnt do anything. It really pissed me off. When I called the 1-800 # they wouldnt even give me his name. It will be a very long time before I buy another VW product
younghov85: that's the same model and color that I've got, also with Sport Design, but it will be a while before I do any engine mods
mag - thanks for the detailed response, I would have normally bought a stick but got the automatic because of knee surgery coming up.
I dont like the G35 or any of those cars and they're also overpriced. The RX-8 would have been ideal for me, but I heard some bad stories about reliability and even worse ones about gas mileage
