I was just expressing my opinion. Personally I wouldn't spend a dime to polish a turd. BTW If you think your POS NEON runs faster than a Corvette you're either delusional like the ricers that try to race me in their civics or just plain stupid.

*cough* news flash. older Corvette's ARE NOT FAST!

I've had my 1999 A4 2.8 quattro 5-speed for about 5-6 months now, 2 - 3.5 hour trips to the beach, drive 60 miles every day and beat it around pretty often and no problems at all. But then again I have the V6, the 1.8t is better if you wanna make it go faster but they def. have alot more problems than the V6. stock for stock the V6 is faster and i pull 30mpg on the highway.

My daily is an 04 f150 4x4 with the 5.4. While they are not fast they have an amazing amount of pep to them to about 65. Actually kept up with a buddies 1st gen lightning that ran mid high 14's until I hit third. (I know it's a truck not a race car but we had to find out at the track).

NO pics though. Picture a completely stock reg cab 4x4 that is silver. xlt package as well with some kewl arse signal mirrors.

I had an 03 jetta 1.8t (which is very simailar to the a4 I belive). Only had it about 4 months before I tore the tranny and clutch out of it...... Lease car back to the dealer and on to something else. Great finished product but fall apart too quick. Nice arse interior and great looking car, piece of chit though.

I was looking into the 02-03 years, and what i have read was bad things about the automatics. Apparently they have horrible transmissions and gearbox's.. I didn't hear too much about the older years (i like them too!) or the 5 speeds. I wish i had good reliable sources for some things. As far as speed, im just looking for a DD with some pep. I don't plan on making it any faster then it is (maybe a set of rims). Im just looking for the long term reliability. I'll probably rack up 200k+ miles on the next DD i get. The jeep is getting close!
