Whatever, I'm not your atypical VW guy, here is the short list of things that I hate and/or despise:

135 tires...sacrificing safety of your passengers and others on the road for looks goes against every part of my being.
carbs...all of them, all they are is a glorified fuel leak.
distributors...all of them, the biggest power and fuel mileage limiter on a internal combustion motor
type 1 and type 1 based engines...all of them, fragile pieces of crap, I added that last one for you Brian :redguy:
cal look one piece windows...I put them in the category of parts that downgrade your VW
the cal look...only going fast in a straight line is lame, looks like that fad is finally dying, good riddens.
ALL china man parts...and don't give me no crap you can build these cars without them, I'm proving that with my bus.
stinger exhaust...the 1/2 a hp you free up is just not worth sounding like a really loud pissed off honey bee.


I'm sure someone is butthurt but those are my biggest pet-peeves and if you don't like my opinions then feel free to cry in a corner :redguy:

I don't think anyone, including myself, is hurt over your opinions, because no one gives two shits about what you think. Have a nice day :dance:
