A little comedy going into the holiday season



Well i just got home from driving the car and it was great! the one
thing that i didnt like was the exhaust. It was really loud
(aftermarket) but thats not hard to deal with.  The interior was
decent but the drivers seat needs to be restiched.  As far as actually
driving it, it was great. Very strong and felt faster than my mom's
honda civic (i know its a honda. i hate it too) The gauge cluster
didnt work very well.  The spedometer worked when accelerating but not
decelerating. Also the tach didnt work but just hook up a wire and i'm
set.  Umm what else. Oh it had an Audi throttle body on it and a K&N
intake.
So as far as the parents go, my dad was excited when i told him i had
found a scirocco. He said to absolutely go drive it but i havent
talked money with him yet. I will do that when he gets home from work.
 My mom basically has nothing to do with it at this point which is
good.  But then again, she had an 87 16v until i was born (so like a
year and a half) and loved it.  I am still mad at her for selling that
(well since i found out how great they are that is.)
