you can still find leftover MK6 golfs with the 5-pot, I think.

also, TTRS is a 5-pot

The TTRS stopped being sold a while ago I thought? It doesn't show up on their website.

It's okay, my favorite engine died about 6 years ago (I think). Yours is just now being phased out.

That's a great engine, but it hasn't been proven yet how long it will last. Plus it isn't nearly as torquey.

Not to mention, OHV FTW

My parents car is an inline with one too many cylinders (BMW E46 3 series, manual, I have a learner's permit thing going on right now), but I always loved the Audi Quattro S1, so my love for the I5 just grew with it.

I have taken my mom's jetta (with the right number of cylinders and a manual) out for a few joyrides, just to give the 2.5 some exercise

Where can you start your license and stuff at that age? I got my first at 16, getting my second one (barely any different from a normal license though) at the end of this month, after the 10 months required in between the two.

The state of Toronto Canada eh!1 Yeah everythings a pain in the ass over here, but we do have that 15 year import law.... (someday it will hopefully be taken advantage of).

What do you think of V10s? I love the sound of those and it gave me the idea of a W15, hich I now desperately want someone to make lol.

Depressing

Although with the modern engines (4 and 6 cyl) from GM, Opel engineers have done a lot of the work. Especially the EcoTec line. V8s were done here (no surprise).
