Why is this car model related? Anyway, I think its the opposite of what should be done to a European car. In my opinion, a Euro should be tuned with class, not ricey and overdone. Just my 2 cents.

Re: Nice Golf I saw yesterday...

The only thing I like about that car is those HUGE brakes...And the front bumper, but on another context

It's red.

Whenever I see a car like that, I think to myself, if I had half that budget I would have the fastest Civic in the world with enough spares to set it up for autocrossing, touring, and still have enough leftover for a truck to tow it with. And I am angry that I am poor, but more angry with people with a lot of money and no sense....

I don't think they do, it's probably a custom job where they put some foam seat filler between the sparcos and upholstered over it.

YUCK.

I agree with RyanGeorgio, "euro style" should be clean and tasteful- with a bent towards performance over style, and very subtle appearance mods.

Like most American show-cars, its way overdone, from the "more is better" school of thought.

Meh, at first glance, I liked it. It'd be better if it was a darker blue with a Rieger Tuning kit on it. Interior should go back to stock except some recaro seats in the front.

Re: Nice Golf I saw yesterday...

I'm not really digging anything on the car, except the black rims. Black on red looks awesome.

I like it; it's a little too far out for me but I've seen lots worse.

Thanks for the post. A nice piece of work for sure, yeah the body kit is just a tad over the top and I really couldn't see living with that interior from day to day but you gotta give him credit for excellent work. I drive a Golf III and that one gives me a few ideas, although a body kit like that wouldn't last me a week with these Denver Roads,


"OMG! Who did that? Not good, somebody has totally ruined that Golf. Too ricy " theres that damn term again
