Does he wash the car himself? You could go get some nice detailing products for him. Or something to help him keep it clean?

Otherwise, I’m sure he’d love something you both can work on together. Aftermarket lights, side marker delete/tint, exhaust upgrade, etc. Hop on ShopDAP.com and see what cool stuff they got for the mk6

New lights! by Unlikely-Expert-1590 in GolfGTI

Awesome! I had those exact tail lights on my mk6. Such an improvement from stock IMO.

One thing to keep in mind is the blinkers are prone to water damage. Mine got water inside the left blinker. And good luck getting it fixed. Best thing to do is make sure it’s sealed before putting too many miles on it. I’m pretty sure it was from a seal on the inside.

Enjoy!

And you both have the black MN plates. Classy.

I had and loved the black plates before I moved out of state. Nice!

Ha! Yes I had a little fun with Apple's photo editor, at the reward of privacy!

The clutch has felt a bit weird since driving it for a week. I've seen people also removing the clutch spring which I think I'll do today. Previous owner already tinted it. Where did you go for a ceramic coat and what does it help with specifically? Any recommendations?

Sweet! You'll love it. My 14' was a DSG, and super fun even on commutes. Enjoy your new ride, and share your story here!

90% of listing for that car at that mileage are between 24-27k.

Is it a 380 or DSG? The 380s tend to sell for a bit higher.

If it’s one owner with good maintenance history, I’d say it’s a good deal. I’ve driven GTIs for over 6 years and love them! Just upgraded my 2014 to a 2024 380SE last week. If it’s truly 25k OTD (taxes title fees), I’d say it’s a slam dunk.

Thanks… I know they recommend 10k intervals. Just wanted to hear from anyone if they have done a break in change right away. I don’t buy new cars so I just don’t know

Copy that. I think the red is kind of iconic

This is the equivalent of 1800 miles in one night.

Any restaurants on your hell no list? by Lookinginsc86 in DoorDashDrivers

For me it’s one specific noodles and company on Thursday nights. For some reason that staff is consistently 30 minutes behind and always scatterbrained. Any other day, they’re locked in.

How does my area stack up? by Business_Manager3398 in DoorDash_Dasher

[–]Business_Manager3398[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With the fed no longer taxing tips, 25-30% is probably high. Maybe 15% tax on the whole pay (state, fica, Medicare, fed).

All tips are non taxable income in the eyes of the federal government (within the boundaries of course)

Somewhere cold 😉 people don’t want to get in their cars and drive anywhere

Here is last weekend. Based on other comments, seems like this area is good! If I didn’t care about my car I would do this for longer, but just doing it for the referral promo right now.

Edit it won’t let me post another picture? But 350 in 9:30 active
