i wouldnt be able to shift wit my left hand
i think i'm mentally retarded in the right side of my brain

 

[Cooper]

It's actually not that hard to shift with your 'other hand'. I can do it ok with my right.

 

[S O F I]

looks nice if you lack originality.

no offense but i'm from the balkans and we jock german cars like no one else and I hate the fuckers who jock them so yeah I hate you now.

im an idiot. i just realized my last post was because i thought that the interior pics were in another thread

Looks nice. Good cars, proper GTI's. Don't overdo it on the bodykitting though. Subtle is always better.

You may want to think about upgrading your suspension as well if you are going to have engine upgrading done. Close to 300 bhp is, even with the Golf's excellent underpinnings, a bit much for a FWD car.

I don't like german cars anymore. They are cheap here so it makes me wonder why people pay more for them in America. Like you guys could get a cheaper Civic or nice Toyotas and you go for shitty VW or Opel instead.

I don't think Opel actually markets in the States...

lol sandeep and pauly i live 2 minutes walk from somerset road.

I haven't really looked at it this carefully, but Saturn is part of GM, and I feel that the Vauxhall/Opel is brought to the states rebadged as Saturn cars. I'll go take a look and see.

 

[dillaxx]

Yup. The Astra is the same. Wiki says that Saturn is now basically rebadged Opels.

 

[dubk]

Rebadging imports is probably the best thing that could happen to GM. Outside of the CTS, all their promising cars are just Euro or Australian rebadges (G8, Sky, etc)

 

[DeeezNuuuts83]

Nice GTI.

 

[Duke]

Lmao, yeah, Saturn rebadged the Opel Astra, brought it up to US-spec and promptly totally ruined the car, lmao. Softening the suspension for those fat Yankee bellies didn't help the handling. Hilarity.

Rebadging is super-gay anyway, and it serves them right to get bit in the ass for it.

 

[Flipmo]

There has been talk about bringing Opels and Peugeots back to North America.

Great looking GTI, I love VWs, but like Masta said, you pay a LOT more for them here than they are actually worth.

I'd post my car, but I don't have any. I might just get a Hyundai Accent cause that's all I can afford as of late. Not the best looking car, but reliable.

While I've never seen an American-rebadged version of an import looking better than the original, a lot of the products they rebadge end up being better than anything they could've made at the time. Just think back:

Eagle Talon = Mitsubishi Eclipse
Dodge Stealth = Mitsubishi 3000GT
Pontiac GTO = Holden Monaro
Pontiac G8 = Holden Commodore
etc.

I'd rather see those than any of the craptastic "efforts" of most of those companies in the same price range. The U.S. makes a few decent cars, but for the most part, their products are embarrassing from an enthusiast's perspective. Rebadging is one of the smarter options that U.S. companies have... that is, when they're not rebadging their own shit over and over again (i.e., Dodge Caravan = Chrysler Minivan = Plymouth Voyager, Ford Explorer = Mercury Mountaineer, Chevy Avalanche = Cadillac Escalade, etc.).

Oh yeah, business wise it's a smart move. It's just morally unacceptable.

Well, not all rebadging is bad. There is a clear difference between a Lexus and a Toyota, and a Honda and an Acura. Nissan and Infiniti, not so much.

The American rebadging, though, is ridiculous, I must agree.

nice car, do they make them for men?

lol!!

My thoughts exactly.
