I'm not really in the market for another car right now...I'm one of the
unfortunate soles who went to the dark side and bought a Maxima.  I am in
Pittsburgh though and would love to come look at the car...maybe reminisce a
little if you have the time.  If anyone would want another opinion from a 6
year and 3 A-2 VW owner (88 GTI 16v, 88 GLI 16v, and 91 GTI 16v), the car is
about 35 minutes from me and I would be more than happy to help a nother vw-er
out...also, I know this sounds a little sketchy but if someone really wants the
car between here and Ann Arbor, Michigan, I'm always looking for an excuse to
get home...  Let me know if I can help out.
