Very nice! New grille/plate delete already I see, along with a drop. Tuning potential of VAG cars is what I miss. So much more out there (vendor wise and used parts from a wider community) tuning wise is what I miss. The 1.8T/2.0T motors help as well I suppose.

Love the wheels and seats...it is a little too VDUBBY for my taste, but very sharp little car nonetheless...good luck with it.

Nice car to sling around Dj Toobs. Did you get the 1.8L or the 2.0L (both turbo no?). And manual or auto?

@Scat01, some "complain" that the VW is too Audi (rear of the new Jetta is identical to the A4 for instance). Some speculate the C205 2014 remake will also look like the current A4/Jetta in the rear. Too bad.

Same company, I guess that is expected right? I wasn't complaining necessarily, just for my own taste I am not a huge fan, but do know that they are kick *** little cars from what I have read about them...

Everytime I see your posts I wish I could just give you my car for the week and get it back with the upgraded speakers..haha (not my area of expertise)

Yep. Looks like M-B will be doing away with their own more stately Sedan greenhouse in favor of the Audi "teardrop" style (which you can see on many cars nowadays, new Sonata, etc.) on the next C-Class, and perhaps more to come. Unfortunate.
