2008-Current Audi TT RS

The new Audi TT RS is one of the best looking new generation Audi's. It is a 2 door coupe, with an optional roadster (convertible) body style. The TT RS has a 2.0 motor with a k04 turbo which puts out 268HP, which is pretty stout for a car that weights 1.5 tons. The car can reach 0-60mph in 5.4 seconds, 5.6 seconds for the roadster. The TT RS is a great looking car, with awesome features and options. Audi did an amazing job with the reconfiguration of the TT RS, making it my favorite coupe available from Audi. Pricing is high at nearly $60,000 for the base model.

Porsche RWB

Now these are not factory cars. This is a car that you can take to a company and they will build it for you. They often are finished in a custom color which is either a form of black, green or orange. RWB will outfit the car with a variety of wide body kits, new wheels, suspension upgrades and an optional built motor. These cars are large and outstanding. They demand attention and should have it for the right reasons. Pricing for the kits vary between $14,000- high $30,000. This price is of course on top of the vehicles price.

Mitsubishi Evolution X

Along with the STI, the Evo is its counterpart. The Evo and Sti compete against eachother. The Evo also features a 4 cylinder, awd system. The Evo X did come with some more features, with an optional navigation. The Evo has a large spoiler, strong body lines and outstanding performance. These competed with the STI, so it was in the same price range of $30,000.

2006-2007 Subaru WRX STI

This car is maybe one of my favorites of all time. I love the engineering that went into these cars. The awd system was way ahead of everyone else, the boxer motor created an awesome exhaust rumble and the large wing on the trunk. These cars came pretty much stripped down, no navigation, no heated seats, no feature amenities that everyone is asking for now. It was simple a car, with a basic interior and a lot of power. Brand new these went in the $30,000 range, but now you can pick one up for roughly $20,000.

My car (2011 VW GTI)

Alright so my first post will be my actual car. It is a 2011 VW GTI. I bought it brand new in January as it was a leftover from the previous year. It is a 2.0 Turbo, with a 6 speed transmission. The car came standard with a lot of features from VW, but I have the optional navigation and sound package upgrade. Shortly after I bought it I put all new suspension on it, in the form of an air ride kit from Bag Riders. It replaced all the shocks with air bags, giving me the availability to raise and lower the car from a switch. I also bought rare Rays wheels, which are 20 years old. Aside from those two mods, there are quite a few OEM parts i bought for around the whole car. This has been my favorite car I've had, and I worked very hard to buy it. The average price for a new GTI is $26,000, but I wont disclose what I payed for mine. I have attached two pictures from the last show I was entered in.
