16 years with the same company that also has the same name as my last name really helps ;-)

If I could see it w/those tailights smoked black, I think it's hot. Better than the MKV. The sport version, that's all one color is sick. I wouldn't do anything to the outside of that (just the tailights,lol). Alright, maybe the grille too.

The only interior problem I see is the radio, it looks cheap and hard to remove. I hope the aftermarket would embrace the motor and suspension. That's all I'd want to work on.

Its got a 560w, 10 speaker surround stereo so atleast its good for what it is.

There are suspension options already out there, but the motor is a bit tougher. It has an integrated turbo (like the PT turbo) so your a bit limited there... but I might be able to talk ATP into casting new exhaust manifolds for it.

That is pretty nice for the stereo. So all I need is some subwoofers and we're good.

On the whole it looks a little large, what car is of a similar size. Is it the same size as a wrx wagon, or a Rabbit 4door?
