It wa shot when it came out, it's hot now, and it'll be hot 20 years from now. It's especially good looking with that giant factory wing on it (seriously!). They are sooooo expensive though. 98's run in the $40k range...hard to find stock TT's as well. And there's usually alot of miles on them! Still...I'm going to start looking into salvage titles, local auto auctions....perhaps a 93 non turbo or single turbo which should be cheaper as well. It has to be a six speed though!! When i'm done modding you can have a joy ride...I should be able to make the drive in what say 20 minutes?! 1999 Silver Frost SVT #609 of 2760 Born on 12/3/98 KKM Intake Removed Resonator 35% Window Tint all around Tinted Tail Lights ElKy Mesh Grilles HID Dyno'ed at 175.3HP/155.5TQ "How much must I live through just to get away..."
