sooo excited to see the FOX! I had a 1993 VW fox 2-door 'woflsburg' edition when I was in high school. What a fun car!
I remember:
- it always smelled of the familiar 'there was once a heater core issue in here' smell
- it had "cruise control" (just put it in 5th and mat it, you'll mostly stay between 75 and 80 mph)
- it had very fast HVAC - hot or cold air would be coming from the vents in seconds after you started the car
- it had very neutral handling, meaning 4 wheel drifts were easy
I wish I would have known about autocrossing and stuff back then.
There's an ACE Cafe in Orlando? Wow, I assume this is connected with the real ACE CAFE in London? Looks like I have a new destination the next time im in FLA
