I actually just bought an 01 jetta with the 1.8T just the other day for my DD. They're actually a nice car, not super fast but faster than I thought.

The car you traded in must have been a Yugo perhaps?

**JBoss GTP** · 03-02-2012

Nope a totaled civic

**blueguy** · 03-02-2012

Close enough...

**JBoss GTP** · 03-02-2012

I cant complain paid 5200 for the civic, got 6300 from the insurance than got the jetta for 4800.

**blueguy** · 03-02-2012

Same thing happened with my Cobalt...paid 7.

Got 8900.

Bought Grand Prix for less than 3.

I love cheating the system.

This jetta only has 72k miles with new clutch, brakes, tires, and it looks brand new inside. And I drive bout 140 miles everyday, I dont want do that to my gtp. So the jetta is cheaper so I can spend more on the gtp. VW insurance isnt to bad either, cheaper than a civic but still paying a little over 600 a month for the gtp and jetta..

Get a tt diverter valve and a chip and you'll be much happier with your 1.8t

**JBoss GTP** · 03-02-2012

I have looked into some chip, they aint cheap but r said to do a lot. I might get one after the gen v swap/setup I wanna do. my gtp come first lol

**blueguy** · 03-02-2012

$600 a month for a GTP and a Jetta?

Did you drive a tank through a few buildings?

Dear christ that is insane insurance.

**dsmuts** · 03-02-2012

I didn't even notice that. I pay that for 3 vehicles for a year of insurance.

**Iceman6669** · 03-04-2012

Even with the MI stupid ass no-fault insurance I only pay a little of $100 a month for full coverage on my wifes z24 and plpd on my GTP.

**JBoss GTP** · 03-04-2012

Being 20 and totaling a car when I was 16 doesnt help. abd that 600 is on my parents insurance.

**Fortehluls** · 03-06-2012

how the hell is it $600?

**blueguy** · 03-06-2012

Parents have bad driving records as well?

**dsmuts** · 03-06-2012

or his parents are screwing him and he's paying their insurance too.

**JBoss GTP** · 03-06-2012

Nah they have good records, my dad is a trucker so he keeps his record perfect. But bak when I was 16 I rolled a Saturn and that was not cheap but I do own a telephone pole now lol. I have 2 or 3 tickets. The gtp is 320 a month Im pretty sure and tge old civic was 360 for watever reason as nd now the jetta is 340.
