hye guys!
Im new here,not dat new actually coz been posted here few times but din keep track what u guys have posted..busy lah (pathetic word)..haha
To Gtishadowfax..im really suprised dat u have sold your car,taiko Gti also sell his..how come? but actually im in a dilemma too..just got married early this year and i think its time to let go this car..but deep in my heart,i alwiz love this car so much..really fits me, i love GTi (errr..can i create a poet for this) ahaha.. thinkin of buyin altezza,test drive d..but the shiftronic doesnt fits me..still love my manual transmission..GTi mmg best..but dunno lah..hard to say.. i dont want to feel bad if or even regret if i do sell my car soon..wanna keep it..but need some upfront for new car pulak..
but after reading your guys thread..keeps me alive lah! keeps me stronger for not selling mine..i still remember my dad said to me when i first bought this car with my 3rd month salary and my 3rd payslip..he said.."boy..this car gonna be classic car one day..dont even think of selling this car! its gonna be so classic like those well appriciated old car these days..y? coz its an icon of superb local car..menat for race, meant for daily drive,sport n practical.." after digesting his words..i think he's right..
FYI,my car have been stolen a month before merdeka race last year..was stolen inside my garage..they smack my gate and towed away my car..im sleeping in my airconditioned bedroom (tido mati) ..then woke up next day..i dont fnd my car nemore..just a spanar and some tools in my garage..when they call car as beloved baby..i felt it right at that moment..i cried!!! can u biliv this..i cried..like my kittens died when i was 6 yo!!..finally recovered my car somewhere at UNITEN bangi..it was terrible..nothing left..just skeleton and engine block..and insurance give me 22k just to rebuild..(infact the insurance guy said..u buy new car laaa,we gave u money..and i said..'dont want!')...worst part, panel workshop also dun wan to search for gti parts..they said susah laa..where can get new one!!??..i bought one by one every single piece from zero to hundred and some accident GTi found in perlis..just for the seats and carpets..piece by piece! after 2 month..completed..
so..within this story,how u guys think?..should i or shouldnt i sell my car?..theres a need for 4 doors car..but i love this very own local sport car..haiihhh..how laa..sometimes..before nite time also thinking, dat its better to upgrade mycar to a better stage..rather than sell it!
cheers fellow GTi members..this is the place where we congregate and tell our experience bout our SGTi...thanx!
