Did somebody say Squareback, Baja and truck in the same sentence?

I did, I said it, sorry. I was also thinking mid-engine, wagon, and corvette...so let's see that one come true now.

Threw a bid in? Good luck if you did!

If I could afford whatever the outcome would be, I'd throw one in. Buuutt I'm low on cash currently.

I wish I could bid on it. I can't go over my $5 limit.

Apparently my dad's first car was a squareback that he bought in Florida. Drove home to MI in it.

Ah, I see :)

I wish that VW would bring back a modernized lineup of everything that was made before 1990 for the US market.

Indeed. I have a VW lust for three things; a rabbit, a rabbit pickup, and a baja bug. Though mainly the latter two.

I had a friend who taught me the basics of stick in his diesel rabbit pickup last year. That car is awesome. I would love to own one some day. It was a breeze to drive, and I looked into other sticks (Vue, cobalt) and those weren't nearly as easy (I think). Plus the long throw of shifting was so fun. Easily, four on the floor are the cars that are the most fun to drive.

And I would love a baja bug because....well who doesn't want one?!? RWD, rear engine, off-road capabilities; it sounds like a whole day of fun!

That's awesome!

I'd love a Baja bug also, I'd love to just make my own out of spare parts and call it a project and build it to my exact specifications. They're pretty damn awesome looking cards, and I feel the sudden urge to make one mine.

There's this guy, on the street behind me, who has a Super Beetle mostly in one piece sitting in his driveway. He's in the middle of fixing it up, but he has so many other things going on he hasn't got back to it. Apparently he's a VW fan. And his projects are amazing. He built a drag race, with a modified beetle engine, on his own. It was a kit, he welded the tubular frame together.

He also showed me pics of a jeep he was customizing for a resort. The doors were modified snow shoes, there's a place for a rifle, the shifter is deer antlers, etc. The guy is awesome.
