My New VW Rabbit
September 29th, 2007Thanks to a generous check from my car insurance company, I was able to buy a new 2007 Volkswagen Rabbit. It has a pretty strong engine for such a small car, and like all VWs it has nice interior design, especially the blue dashboard lights (it makes you wonder if American car companies pay any attention when designing their cars). The stereo is also extremely intuitive, more than any car stereo I’ve ever seen.
Some details (not bad for what is probably an entry-level car):
- 2.5L 150hp 5-cylinder engine
- 10-speaker stereo with 6-disc changer
- Seat warmers!
Anyway, I just hope it doesn’t get stolen for at least a few months so I can enjoy it for awhile. For more photos, see my photo album

Why do you people buy imported euro-trash?

Mostly because cars that Americans make have no reliability or elegance…really, they’re just plain garbage. (Say how’s your Ford, GM, or Chrysler working out for you?)
