I'd really like to test out one of the new GTI's as well. Although after owning a GLI and a Turbo Beetle, both which fell apart, I'm unsure I'd ever consider VW/Audi again.


I've been test driving many cars over the past few weeks. My wife will need a new car in a year or two and I was contemplating something more "practical" than the FR-S for myself. Honestly everything I've tested so far is boring compared to my FR-S. Last week I took a brand new EVO X MR for about 25 minutes on some back roads. While it's a fast car, I was extremely happy to get back in my car and drive those same roads on the way home. It just felt so numb. I think adding the JRSC will be my next big step for sure. A bit more torque is really all I'm missing at this point.

I've been eyeing the Forester XT for my wife. Sadly she only drives auto
