    I see them occasionally and did a search; I get everything from jibberish to a Norwegian's resume'.

    Am I spelling this wrong? This car soesn't show up at VW's site so am I nuts, seeing things? Does it exist?

    Thanks.

    I want to take a VR6 Eos and remove all of the stupid electromechanical convertible crap and solid mount a carbon fiber roof, add a 6 speed manual and a big turbo (or a pair of small ones) and hoon around in that for a while.

    Awesome cars that are about 1000lbs overweight.

    Performance add-ons can work wonders, but if they leave scars - not so much.

    I was at the gas station down the street from my house and 40 something year old woman pulled up in Eos. I watched her walk back out to her car and I yelled "How long does it take to get your top down?" She said pretty quick and did it right there in the parking lot. It was pretty neat. The lady never took her jacket off, though.

    If you're trying too hard, you're doing it wrong.

    This girl is off the TTH chart.

    Trying Too Hard chart.

    Wouldn't matter to me once if I lowered her top.

    Ah... another reason to stay as far away from Englishtown as possible when Waterfest is in town...

    Car & owner: Meh... but typical Waterfest material...

    The Eos is a nice enough car... but if I were looking for a HT 'vert, the is - of course - Miata.

    That picture with your 'flashing tranny's' comment underneath cost me a keyboard.

    These pictures should never have been posted, my life was much happier with just the first one where she's leaning over the car and you can't really see her.

    I noticed her front plates, do not Google that phrase.

    Then go hug your kids.

    Why am I getting the feeling the acronym "PIITB" has never been more appropriate...

    Base model seems OK, the bolt ons and trim package detract however and lower its overall value.
