    Nice looking VR, good buy I can't believe that other black one would go for $8900, looks a bit rough to me.

    hahah @ manual (He might be homo but he can drive manual :p )

    It got delivered today, so it's officially changed hands - The dude that sold it to us said the phone has been off the hook with callers all week, people offering more than their asking price ($9k) sight-unseen. Pretty happy with that one.

    They ****ed up the listing, had it listed as something else and the day they changed it we found it, had a look and bought it - They were under the impression it'd been on the market for a week and no one had called about it... so Vr6's are still in huge demand, we just got lucky to get it at this price.

    Brendan lost his license a while back I think he gets it back in a week or two

    haha I spent most of the day driving it around with Brendan today - Jesus the vr6 is a fantastic engine. Probably more fun to play with than my tuned 1.8t

    The noise once it gets over ~5000rpm is amazing - Feels like it's going to rip your head off.

    I'm impressed.. fantastic buy that car was.

    EDIT : Oh and yeah - The dash has markings for L/100, Oil temp etc - How do you get them to display? Or was that o/s only??
