I really like the better handling, improved interior space, more power (oh so sad Ford

2003 Jetta 1.8t
Mods listed here, not fully updated, close enough, it had a few more items done that are not highlighted indicating it: http://www.geocities.com/uberspeed/mods.html
Too many tickets, fun as all hell though. I miss it terribly, but needed more room, comfort and no speeding tickets!
Current: Mazda 3 GT hatchback, it's what the wife wanted, I'm driving it until her current lease is up and I was buying time until I could get the xB2. In January I should get it and hand the Mazda to her.
