I am in the market, but at the early stages. If it was local, I would wrangle $800 in cash somehow and go check it out today.

It's been a long time since I've seen an A2 in person.

If anyone is seriously interested I can stop over there with a battery and check it out.

If it's DD-able today I'd send you money for inspection and delivery.

I seriously doubt that, though, and I am not really willing to ask that of you.

If it isn't, it shouldn't take much. Its an A2 for christ's sake.

If your serious about it and Evan can't deliver I might be able to bring the car down. My b-i-l is in NC and the wife's been complaining about a lack of vacation time.

I was right behind an identical car today in the drive-thru. I was thinking about how long it had been since I saw a 16v GTI....

I emailed the seller shortly after posting this. I haven't heard anything back yet (the ad has been up a month) but if I do I will update here.

Yeah I emailed twice a couple weeks ago but haven't heard back from anyone. I would have been all over this if I would've gotten a response.

I like it, I have owned two 16v GTIs and want another one. There were two at the Snodrift this year. They sounded great and looked like fun.

Yeah, the guy that ordered that car... knew what he was doing. These cars look good in lots of colors, though, even black.

Don't worry, he hasn't answered his email and haven't become desperate enough to start combing the neighborhood for it.

The first time I read this I briefly entertained the thought of going out there and driving it back. Briefly...
