New Ride For Me

[jd1828]

i got another ride today. its a 96 tsi awd. its got 108k miles and totally stock. best part is that i paid $2300 for it. :bounce: the only thing i dont like so far is the shifter. it just feels like mush and its hard to tell what gear its in.

no pic yet but ill try to get some soon. its white just like my 92.

Yea................good score!........and I thought i got good deal.

I just bought a stock 97 Tsi AWD last week for $3800w/spare tranny and transfer case.

Prices for 2Gs are definately dropping.

the only thing ive found wrong with it is the idle controller (or whatever its called). thats how i found the car anyway. the guy came in to checker (where i work) and wanted me to hook up a scaner to find out why the cel was on.

If you look around, you can get a good deal on them. I am mostly seeing it with talons though. Ghettostyle bought his 95 TSi AWD for $2600.

And to think I paid $3900 for my 92 a year and a half ago...

that pisses me off, ive noticed there all cheaper aswell, i wish i wouldve known how cheap they were when i was about to buy the sebring, Tom showed me a Talon which i shouldve bought but at the time i was looking for an eclipse.

You all got good deals on your cars. I paid $5300 for my 93 talon with only 76k miles. I spentover $2000 on repairs within one year also. My parents hate my car....but I still love it..haha :banana: and plus mines came in leather, air filter, shorter shifter, ok looking rims....he wanted $5800.

Sounds like a steal to me, you really cant go wrong for 2300, unless of course its not a car at all and it is actually a brick with squares for wheels.
