New Arrival
Just in from Seattle, WA...
I just received my new Fastback. Boy was I surprised when it came on an enclosed trailer just like the seller said. The same transporter brought it here to florida all the way from WA. Then as I watched it come off the trailer, it looked just as good as it did in the pics the seller sent to me. There are a few items I couldnt see in the pics, but overall I am really pleased. The car started right up & it was so quiet I almost wasnt sure if it was still running. I had to get out of the car to check. The drive home to my house (about 5 miles from the drop off point) was just pure smiles all the way. :D The car handles really nice & stops on a dime ! Will post pics as soon as I take some...... stay tuned :cool: |
Congratulations on your purchase. :D :D
I love the first drive of a new car. :D |
Schweeeet!

Me too. But this one was way different because I didnt get a chance to drive it before purchasing. So it was especially sweet driving it & knowing I got what I paid for and got a good deal too. |
Way cool. I'm glad everything worked out. I would be nervous too having not seen it/heard it/driven it in person. Can't wait to see it at the Dyno Day weekend.

congrats. i was hoping for the best. that is tough on the nerves when you haven't seen it in advance. for the passat i paid for an inspector to go check it out (cheaper than a plane flight), but that was a whole different purchase.

well I just had a good feeling about the seller, I think thats why I was so at ease about the whole purchase.
Everything went smoothly about the whole transaction, even the shipping. I was more worried about the shipping going wrong then about the car not being right. I have heard plenty of shipping horror stories thats why I did so much research before hiring a shipper. The car is now in its stable here at the homefront. Last nite I let my wife drive around the neighborhood for a while. She seemed to enjoy it & even said that it would be a nice car to take on long trips. So I guess she likes it more then my bug, which is a good thing I think :rolleyes: I hope to have it registered and on the road within a week, hopefully less. I will definitely be driving her to the dyno day, but first I need to check everything out and make it is road worthy. |
Congrats! :cool:
Now If I can get mine on the road this year! |
not sure what it is about type 3 suspensions, with my limited experince driving them, I alwaysfound they were a little nicer ride than beetles, but that could be because most of the beetles I've owned or driven had dropped suspensions.
I missmy type 3 squareback, but not as much as my kombi. |
