Hi Guys,
I currently have a stage 2 tuned mkv gti, I used to have a 1968 Lemans gto clone convertible and 2 1990 Nissan 240sx's, people always love how such a tall person fits in these tiny cars. My dad has a 1967 Chevelle 454 SS and he just sold his 2006 GTO. He also used to have a black 1978 Trans am.
My friend's R Line CC and my GTI, both stage 2 tuned, his is APR mine GIAC
Don't get me wrong I love american muscle, but these turbocharged cars are so easy to make quick. The fact that the GTI got 32 mpg, has tons of cargo room, and this video were my selling factors. This guy has almost the same setup as I do and he beats a 580hp Camaro ZL1 in the 1/4 mile.
After I swapped the grill

We also just got a black turbocharged passat for my fiance.
I feel like there is a direct correlation between star wars fans and VW. I meet a lot of diehard star wars fans at local VW meets. Just yesterday someone showed up with a star wars bumper magnet and their kid was dressed up like r2d2. Also this other guy has a custom made imperial symbol he mounted on the front of his car and red interior lighting. He also has a german euro plate that says tiefighter, I took a picture of it, I'll try to find it later. Maybe it's all the sweet star wars ads VW does that makes us like them.
A few examples:
