I'd try to test drive the Elantra GT for and see what kind of pricing is available, but probably end up with a base DSG GTI out of those options.
I kinda want to do the same. Gotta find out how is handling test drives during the apocalypse first.
It's also not fucking snowing there.

I also do think SE is the sweet spot based on what I wanted, his is 5/7 has the LSD and cloth, really the only thing he's missing that I have is the fender.Tarspin wrote: ↑Thu Apr 23, 2020 6:42 pmIs it still available ?MexicanYarisTK wrote: ↑Thu Apr 23, 2020 6:18 pm
That is correct, come with 4 colors I think, nardo-ish grey?, black, white, and the most beauty of all CoRn FlOw3rBlU3!

I do think an SE like Rudy has is the sweet spot, speaking as a Gorf owner.
I'd get the cornflower blue at this point.

Yes! unlike 2015.... Rudy's is the SE with the cloth, which I'm lowkey jealous of too.wap wrote: ↑Thu Apr 23, 2020 8:12 pmSo new SE's can be had with cloth interior?MexicanYarisTK wrote: ↑Thu Apr 23, 2020 6:26 pm
2019 and 2020 are still S, SE, Autobahn
The LSD is now standard on all 2020's now
S (non Rabbit), no sunroof, cloth only, halogens. Still comes with driver assistance as an option.
SE (unlike my mk7) still comes with cloth, sunroof, with leather as an option, dat touch screen head unit with the volume knob, xenons as standard, I think.
Autobahn is too overpriced just the navigation when you have CarPlay or android auto, auto AC, FULLY powered seats and Fender (which what I have). Can confirm basic bitch stereo is pretty good too.

I couldn't find ONE cornhole on auto trader all over the country
I'd probably look at VW dealer website pre-owned inventory, left over are possible to be found there.
Colors, I'd either go for white, red, great falls green. I swear VW changes colors a lot by each year.

Either a 2018 SE for the warranty or a 2019 Rabbit Edition for the color and no frills.

Honestly if I had to buy a GTI right now I would 100% go for a 2019 Rabbit edition simply for the fact that there's no sunroof (weight decrease + reliability increase), sportier design, no frills head unit, performance pack, LED lighting package, awesome color, baby Pretoria wheels (instead of directionals), interior.
5/7 overall

It was a damp, foggy morning in a field just outside of Chicago where the first auto race of the 1921 racing season was to take place. Henry Ford puttered up to the starting line in his newest racing machine, leaving behind tire tracks in the fresh morning dew. Rumors were swirling that this machine was easily capable of triple digit speeds, and all looked on with amazement as Wap rolled up next to him in his own homebuilt contraption. Like nothing the world had seen, Wap ignored the gasps from the crowd as he snugged up his driving gloves, and while lowering his goggles over his eyes, shot his dear friend Henry the first side eye in motor racing history.
A woman donning a fresh bobbed haircut and a trench coat strutted in front of the two machines. Both Henry and Wap revved their eager machines in a building crescendo to redline. The woman dropped her red handkerchief that Wap had given her the night before and the men were off.
The speed was brutal and unrelenting, but unfortunately short lived. As the two rounded the first corner, Henry's machine suffered a catastrophic steering failure which sent him straight past the turn. Wap's front tire caught the grooves left in the field, and combined with the slick morning dew, Wap's machine went rolling.
The crowd gasped as the machine barrel rolled across the field. The sound of metallic crunching and internal combustion combined with the smell of smoke and raw fuel. Fearing the worst, Wap's racing crew came rushing to his aid, and as they approached a figure emerged above the smoke atop the now wrecked heap below. It was Wap...he struggled to rise, but determined as he was, he stood up, winked at the woman donning the bobbed haircut and shot a sharp solute to the crowd.
The crowd erupted in cheering, cheering that they say could be heard all the way in Detroit. Wap, while miraculously alive, suffered a drastic injury to his left leg. He was in a cast for three months recovering, and being stuck at home he worked to develop an automatic transmission for racing applications. It was the first of it's kind and the world marveled the next year when he beat Henry at the same race. Wap has driven an automatic transmission ever since both out of necessity, but also out of pride for what he was able to accomplish when he was at his weakest.
