I have a '99 VW golf, Mk3... but have yet had time or money to alter it from stock. :P It was an upgrade from my 96 golf that someone totalled when they hit me.

Heres my toys right now. A BMW M Coupe and a Yamaha FJR1300. Used to have a Subaru STI (hence my name)

Just kidding. Well, sort of. Some sweet rides in here nonetheless, even if it is 3 pages of not a VW.

I have a golf and hate it, terrible car. Especially in the winter.

Bah! A Golf? I still hear "blah blah blah not a VW".

In all fairness though, I hear you. I've owned 6 water-cooled veedubs. Two were the worst cars I've ever owned (although when working when the funnest damn cars ever, one was a GTI, and one was a Passat). Two were the best cars I ever owned (another Passat, which died horribly in a head-on highway collision in BC that amazed all witnesses that anyone walked away from, so it died with honour at least) and another GTI which died horribly after being stolen.

But since I thought this was a sort of "toy car" thread I was just sorta disappointed to see no mention of vintage 'dubs like Beetles or my personal favourite, Karmann Ghia ragtops. If I had the garage space and if I didn't already waste all my cash on reefing I'd have one or a couple of these ... However I do sort of find the hobbies to be mutually exclusive. I spend FAR too much on the tanks to have a car affliction as well. Kudos to all you guys and gals who've found a way to do both...
