2003 Volkswagen Jetta Wolfsburg review from North America
"Fast and the Furious, without the NOS"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
There is nothing wrong with the car so far, thank goodness. Turbo lag is very noticeable. I have a beach house and the hurricane really messed up the driveway with sand. Needless to say I got stuck. How do I know if the clutch is shot? Is the smell a good enough representation? It still works though so I guess I should keep running it.
General comments?
I love this car! It is really quick once the turbo kicks in. I drive my car like a maniac and love every second of it. It is very practical and the BBS wheels are sick! Too bad the exhaust looks like noodles. I'm just too broke to get a new fancy one.
