My big issue isn't that I don't like it or don't enjoy it, it's just that I don't drive it for some reason or another. Between trucking the dog around, days that it's pouring rain out, and other such issues I only put 1500 on it this year and that made me feel super guilty. If I lived in Cali or FL, there would be no desire to sell it as I could drive it almost every day year round.

I feel you, man...
with the addition of a child that I pick up from daycare daily...I've been finding myself in a similar boat.
My plan is to start making time for her though, like concerted effort to drive it even if it requires some planning and home modification.
I've driven a fair amount of cars in my lifetime...and nothing drives quite like the S2000...it's not great at everything, but what it is good at, it's DAMN good at.
Nothing has ever put a smile on my face like it...even if that's just a few instances a year...it's paid off and we're not eating ramen every night.

Tomorrow my Cousin is coming over to install an intake and exhaust on his GTI.
Dude, I LOVE his car...it drives so fun and it's so nimble.
If we have some time, probably tinker on the S2000 a smidge too. Got some info for where I'm taking it for a new top too.

Nothing wrong with the Kraft Mac and Cheese. I buy that shit by the cart full. It's what's for dinner 4-5 nights a week. And I have, and have had, a jerb for many many years.

LMAO...you also have the perfect excuse for it...
KIDS!
I used to eat that a BUNCH when I was with my Ex who had 2 young boys.
Shiet....add some packaged ham that you hand shred and it's basically gourmet!

I'm pretty sure I mentioned it before, but cul0's, go to, kid approved dinner is 1 box of Mac n Cheese, 1/2 lb of browned ground beef, and a cup or so of frozen peas.
Mix all that up and dinner is ready in 10 minutes.
Also works for starving college students and jerbless canuckians.

Yeah man...I'm super proud of him.
It's been fun to see him become his own man...he's always been so kind and good natured...
he always had an interest in cars but now he's really starting to spread his wings...interacting with my car buddy's...and buying stuff for his car.
Very very cool...

I think first thing id do with those GTIs is red pinstripe delete but other than that fuck theyre clean. I'm also not a fan of that plaid interior but whatevs, I think you can do a s4 or s5 recaro swap easily, forget which one though

GTFO.
The plaid is like the one thing VW has ever done that's worth a damn.

On a older VW with some character/patina yea sure, but not feeling it on the new ones I feel the leather is much much cleaner looking

Yeah, you weren't born early enough. Plaid is '80s
