<![CDATA[1997 vw gti 2.0]]>I'm not going to be needing my DD soon so i'm going to throw it up for sale and see what happens.
Car: 1997 VW Golf GTI
Miles: 133k ish
Engine" 2.0 4 cyl
Trans: 4 spd manual (should be 5, get there in a sec)
Pros: Good CD MP3 deck, sat rad, new tires this year, all new brakes this year, KN intake, Full Coilover suspension, leather interior, working sunroof, nicknamed Adolf because it conquers and it is German
Cons: Exhaust has a leak and one of the hangers is broken underneath, so it rattles inside the car, isn't loud, i had a stock muffler put on, needs patching up. Car has gears 1-4 and reverse. On the way to work 5th just all of a sudden "went out" not sure where it went. I didn't care and drove it that way for the last month of work.

Skinny: Decent car. Never let me down. Drove it 110 miles to and from work every day for the last school year, never missed a beat. Needs a new trans. Engine is noisy, but runs perfect and has been that way for the time i have had the car, put 27k miles on it in the 10 months i have owned the car. Shipping out to basic in a couple months, don't need it.

Price: 1500$ - It needs a trans but works as is. Take it and put a trans in it, will work for another 130k. Trans are cheap. Don't have time to do it my self.

Pics and VIN up asap.
