        Of course it is=) If it wasn't, a manual swap would have been the first thing on the list.

        It does have a semi bad transmission though. It has the common problem with knocking out of first gear if you don't put it in gear before coming to a stop. It has to stay in gear then. If I take it out of gear at all while stopped, it will throw it out of first when I go to take off. In the case I do take it out of gear stopped, I have to go in reverse; drive backwards a bit; and put it in first gear. It also has a third gear knock very rarely. It has happened enough times to be a known issue though.

                          Minus having a hood on it. lol And it wasn't washed. I'll find a picture=D

                          First time I saw the car. The hood that was on it in the picture above is the original one. It flew up on the highway from the PO (my friend pictured) not closing it all the way. Hence why it had a brand new windshield too.

                          IMAG0040.jpg

                          He just bought the car a month or two before because it was on craigslist as a parts car. He put in the missing rear diff and changed the brakes. I believe that was about it.

                                          Mine was a huge shitbox, but it was still way better than the mk3.

                                          More goodness. I just found out I can order my lips and they'll be ready in two weeks. Placing my order in the next few days.
