I am in Naugatuck, CT. I was deep into VWs until 2004 when I sold my Mk III Jetta.
I am heading to The Fast & The Furriest car show in Middletown on Sunday. It is a car, truck, bike show to benefit Cat Tales which is a no kill feline rescue.
I know I am jumping in late, but I agree with basically both sides of this discussion..... to a point. I own an LX with the auto, and at the time I had no choice. It also fit my situation with a long daily commute and wife who couldn't drive stick. Up until recently, the only change I made...
I have been trying to find a meet around CT/MA as well. Doesn't look like I can make the dragon either.
Edit: hoping things change, but doesn't look good [emoji20]
Been looking into trading up to a new SI, and I was told by one dealer the Type R is coming and by another it wasn't. Hoping they do decide to bring it.
Probably just going with exhast and some chassis stiffening. My real car mod days were pre-2004 when I had my modified 97 Jetta that I autocrossed and dragged.
