Those VWs are nice cars.  Not as much fun as the e30...but reliable, good looking and powerful.

Sorry to see you go...but no worries; we'll still be here when you feel like sharing!

ill have another e30 sometime in the future but for now my wife wanted something newer and i have a new job that im putting alot of miles on the car so  i need something that i dont have to tinker with every weekend . But you know as well as i do once you get e30 in your blood you cant get rid of it.:D

Same thing happened to me.  I drove my Dad's BMW long enough to get the blau und weiss in my blood...but I went through a bunch of Euro & Japanese cars in the meantime, including a nice old VW Golf and a Jetta III.  Neither ever left me stranded, though a lot of little stuff broke on the Golf.  VW QC has tremendously improved since the 80's...the Jetta III was a vast improvement.  Sold it to a friend's son and I'll bet it's still running!

Title: update! here is the vr6...... sooooo i love it
