Thing to [never] Do In Your New VW Rabbit
Yes, I bought one of the covetted 2006 VW Rabbits. The last black two-door in the area. It begs to be driven. It begs to be driven FAST. And that 6-speed Tiptronic transmission, AWESOME. Oh, if you're wondering what happened to the last new car I bought, let's just say that I got sick of it not having anti-lock brakes. Now, I just didn't just go out and buy this car. I did some research and even test drove a Mini Cooper first. But the Rabbit wins. Hands down. Better performance, more comfortable ride, and thousands less than a comparably equipped Mini Cooper.
The sticker price of a comparable Mini is $4,000 more than what I paid in total for my Rabbit. Then add in tax, licensing, destination charges, and the fact that the dealership was upfront in saying that they mark UP the Minis about $1,000 and will not negotiate a price, and the Rabbit actually cost over $8,000 less!
So anywho, here are some helpful tips from me to you on Things That You Should
Neverstomp on it "just to see how fast it will really go"Neverrace Mini Coopers (their drivers really hate losing)Neverpunch it off the lineNeverplay "auto tag" with new MustangsNeverthrow it into Sport Mode, downshift, and drop the hammer on some punk who's going only 70 in the fast lane.Nevertell your wife how fun it is to drive.
...the Rabbit is a damn fun car.
