I agree. I cant stand the cheap ghetto DTM exhaust...only company that makes a decent one is Supersprint, and even then it's really vehicle specific.

Some nice BBS wheels would do well, or something with some dish/polished lip.

:)

Good choice on the VR6 tho, great sounding motor :drool:

A thesaurus is your friend. :rofl:

Very nice car man. I love the look of the Mark III. But one question, what is a Golf conversion? I assume it has something to do with the front end?

Here's an example of a Jetta with a Golf front end, or a.k.a. Getta.

Hey Merkur, I like the car, but I would get new wheels. The wheels are nice, but kind of predictable. But otherwise, that's a really nice Jetta, I especially like the headlights.

Obviously you're the n00b if you don't know what a GETTA (http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=1507156) is.

Jolf or JTI (http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=1495546) is a Golf or GTI with a Jetta front end swap.

Either way you say it, it's a nice touch, to make it a little more unique. Nice car Merkur, you'll have fun with that for sure.

Getta, JTI, Jolf: all perfectly acceptable words. Did anyone see the Jetta at VUB (2.0L supercharged) It had a Golf front end too
