Albuquerque, NM owners?

[phils12gti]

Hey all! I'm new to the ABQ area. Wanted to know if there is any owners on here that meet up. I saw a couple MKVI's in the auto show parking lot today. Mines a CW GTI with blacked grille and emblems.

thanks

What up! I'll keep an eye out on this thread. Maybe there is more of us. How was the show? I had to work, so I missed out.

hey man! Show was cheesy. It was mostly local dealer cars.. but I guess I'm too used to the Chicago one. plus no MK7. The VW guy said it was too small of a show for it.

I went to it in 2011 when I first got here. I just got back from Germany where I went to the Frankfurt Auto show.....no comparison, not even close.

 

[phils12gti]

Yeah that must be a huge show. This morning a black MkV GTI parked next to me at Costco

 

[jthorst75]

Which Costco? Where are you in Abq?

 

[phils12gti]

The one on eagle ranch road near cottonwood mall. I live north west of there on the border of rio rancho

Ok just now I saw 3 mkvi GTIs @ Carlisle and candelaria... Someone's got to be online..

Hey Phil, I might have seen you a few times. I'm also on the edge of rio off McMahon and Unser. I'm in stock dark grey mk6 with a few stickers on the back.

 

[phils12gti]

^ yeah I might have. We live blocks from each other!

Another ABQ guy checking in. Driving up to Colorado Springs Sunday for APR stage 1 tune on Monday morning. '12 CSG with LED DRLs.

 

[jthorst75]

Welcome! Is that the closest to do an APR tune?

 

[DrGonzo]

Yes, unless you pull the ecu yourself and mail it to APR. I know there is at least one guy in Albuquerque who has done it.
