yea a few thumbs up and even windows down on the interstate in a bit of traffic had a few people yell compliments. Best was a guy mesmerized by the detroits when i was rolling up to a light. His face was priceless.

2 weeks of ownership and I've gotten 3 compliments. All loved the detroits too. Bone stock still to boot, unless you see the small things I've done inside.

Was driving a co-worker to pick up food for a b-day lunch yesterday. He's an old friend who doesn't give 2 cents about cars, but said 'your car looks nice inside, from the outside I thought it'd be small, but it's not.' GTI interior FTW.

Awesome. GTI == TARDIS.

It's true. I would bet Dr Who would drive a modified GTI. You reading this Moffett? Write it in the next season!

Dr. Who ran a MK3 Tardis. Ours is more advanced!

Waiting on my car to be dried at the car wash - the guy in front of me in line asked if it was my GTI. He said he loved it. Loved the dual exhaust, and the sound of the APR exhaust :thumbsup: He used to have a 2000ish GTI and said it was his favorite car of all time. I can't say he is wrong. Love my GTI.

I have gotten a few compliments from strangers and others. I do swear that VW designers are part Time Lord because as my friend who owns a 750i told me he has more leg room in my front seat than his BMW.

As one girl said when she got in "Cute car!" as we were driving along "wow this is fun" then at lunch she asked "so why did you pick that one" (wide open door) "well I wanted a car like me... Cute and fun to ride." Cheesy but well worth the bright red blush I got from her.

The GTI dun did its magic again.

I forgot to mention this. The only other car I have had more strange people come up to me on was when I rented the Camaro convertible. Brand new so a lot of people were interested.
