I just feel like I'm wanting to cheat on my JSW that's always been there for me for 78k miles

I hear- well, read, so many comments on the internet about how VW's are utter crap and stuff, and then I read tons of comments about how great they are. I don't get it.

I love mine, it has only had one problem (latch for the hatch broke at 38k miles, $240 to repair) but other than that, nothing... yet. I'm not really wanting to have to completely disassemble the engine for the 100k timing belt change... and I want something faster ;)

Hehe, "latch for the hatch...." that rhymes!

Lol there was no other way to say it. "Hatch latch"?

Is your hatch latch (hehe) the logo or is it separate?

Sportwägen, Driver Of The Red Sportwagen > norskracer98-ExploringTheOutback 09/18/2014 at 20:13

separate, the latch is what holds it shut

It seems like every single person on this website has either a Focus ST, Fiesta ST or a Miata.

Well, I have yet to drive one (Ford dealership didn't have one! WTF!) but I plan on test driving one eventually... I just don't want to have to deal with what is basically an engine-out service (changing timing belt = hell) or when the car starts to actually act like a Volkswagen (breaking down twice a week at $500 a piece)

jkm7680 > Sportwägen, Driver Of The Red Sportwagen 09/18/2014 at 22:04

0

Meh, I just find them both extremely predictable.

But would you have to pay for the timing belt, if that were to go?

Sportwägen, Driver Of The Red Sportwagen > jkm7680 09/18/2014 at 22:07

0

Parents would, I probably wouldn't get to drive for 2 weeks because my dad would somehow mess it up, and it would end up probably costing around $1k...

jkm7680 > Sportwägen, Driver Of The Red Sportwagen 09/18/2014 at 22:09

But it wouldn't be out of your pocket anyways...

Sportwägen, Driver Of The Red Sportwagen > jkm7680 09/18/2014 at 22:13

Getting this would also solve my project car woes (read: I don't want it to work on, I want it for track/autocross days). That and the Jetta is currently worth around $15k private sale... about 4k less than a Focus ST.

The issue is that my is going to try to do it in our shed, by ourselves. Something is going to break, and I am going to not have a car for a while

jkm7680 > Sportwägen, Driver Of The Red Sportwagen 09/18/2014 at 22:17

I see what you are saying, but how about a GTI or WRX or something?

Sportwägen, Driver Of The Red Sportwagen > jkm7680 09/18/2014 at 22:22

0

I tried to, but I couldn't even and a WRX is just ridiculous

jkm7680 > Sportwägen, Driver Of The Red Sportwagen 09/18/2014 at 22:25

0

Y no WRX?

I've also heard that the GTI does 0-60 faster than the Focus, but don't quote me on that.

Sportwägen, Driver Of The Red Sportwagen > jkm7680 09/18/2014 at 22:27

I don't care that the GTI is faster, it is all in the feeling. How much do you think the insurance is on an 07 WRX Wagon for a 17YO male? I'll give you a hint:

jkm7680 > Sportwägen, Driver Of The Red Sportwagen 09/18/2014 at 22:30

Yup, I'll blame Obama for the insurance thing.

Sportwägen, Driver Of The Red Sportwagen > jkm7680 09/18/2014 at 22:45

0

Okay, that's it. The Saab 9-2X Aero seems like the way to go (lower insurance than WRX and even my current car ) and I have found one with 140K miles for $6k

jkm7680 > Sportwägen, Driver Of The Red Sportwagen 09/18/2014 at 22:48

0

Yes, do this and save up for something down the road!

Sportwägen, Driver Of The Red Sportwagen > jkm7680 09/18/2014 at 22:57

I was thinking of this one. 66k miles for $10K? Get Automatch on it with the OPPO discount, and you could probably get it for $8.5k! That and I looked at insurance...

WTF WHY IS MY CAR SO EXPENSIVE?!?! I did the stupid Esurance App thing and it said the monthly min for a 2011 JSW TDI would be $280! Monthly Min for a 2005 Saabaru 92 Aero? $120... compared to 230 for an 07 wrx wagon

What's the ST like insurance wise?

Oh, and I think that's probably not the right link, Haha.

I got one of some guy eating Grey Popuon in a Rolls or something.

Jesus fcking Christ, that's way more than it should be.

Add it to the parents insurance? Haha.

I want to be able to do as I please, therefore I get a part time job at Chik-Fil-A to pay for my own insurance. Their logic for not letting me Auto-X the Jetta is that it is on their insurance...

It rose from the dead. Roger Moore's humor brought it back to life.

He was James Bond from 1973 until 1985. His jokes and puns are what my humor is mostly based on. He's known for witty scenes like that one.

OOOOOHHHHH that makes sense ;) So I'm guessing that you were browsing OPPO when you saw the headline and clicked it? Happens to me all the time :)
