It's funny you mention that. Not to generalize, but yea, Honda 'guys' & most import guys are VERY different from other crowds, such as VW's and BMW's. But again, there are some exceptions.

Well.. coming from a jetta owner... thanks !

I find the VW guys to be a lot like BMW and Porsche tuners... They just seem to be happy to be a part of it all... whether they win or lose. Of course, we have some exceptions...

On the rim thing... No way in hell is that ever going on my car. I do love measuring dish with small mammals, but, stretching the tires like that is just dumb.

And, if anyone thinks VW's don't have soul, you're welcome to drive mine... if you live around Baton Rouge, of course.

Anyway.. thanks Nightshade for the positive comments.

IMO vee dubs have more soul than honda. but neither really have much soul so why split hairs?

the main reason i like VWs (not so much the newer ones) is the style. its like the style of no style same with older volvos, saabs, and bmws. more function over form. i like that.

I've had the same experience with a group of Honda enthusiasts

a few times at my house. I'm starting to make plans for another one or two this year

Yep they were all HANers and it was the wash+wax meet
