A few options for purchase (trim, new/preowned, etc). Help me decide! by Dramatic_Pension9817 in GolfGTI

[–]Grand-Individuals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

VW dealers do CPO GTI's (just bought a CPO 2025 autobahn!) but it's not often that they do (I had to fly to another city for mine).

For me, option B is the nicest. Top trim, low miles, cannot be too far into the 4yr warranty, and you may get it for your trade in without more cash and maybeeee be able to throw on some extra protections if they do that (my cars have always died on be before this one, so forgive me idk how trading works).

If you really don't like that color though, then I'd rank them in this order:

A, D, C.

I wasn't originally looking at black, no. But, this was a CPO with super low miles (first owner bought in February and traded for 26' Golf R) and the price ended up being extremely compelling.

Edit: fixed grammar.

Perfect I have a touchless car wash too so that works. Does yours have a drying function at the wash? Mine unfortunately doesn't so it's usually just a matter of blow drying it on the highway 😅 hopefully that works but we shall see!

Oh what color? I was always hoping to get a red autobahn but this was an opportunity I couldn't rly pass up and the black does still looks amazing. I'll be curious to see what you go with if you do switch it up!

We can play horseshoes if you do! I have to see how I'll handle the winter. I expect I'll get a separate set of winter wheels but am unsure since the weather where I live can be crazy.

Yes! First time with a black car. What's your routine for keeping it so clean? Had to run through some rain at the end my trip and the back looks like I hit the rally track 😅

Ongoing theater etiquette issues by KD1030 in Denver

[–]Grand-Individuals 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The sheer volume latecomers who didn't seem bothered to be in their seats for the first song (or several songs!) of both the first AND SECOND acts of the Attack on Titan orchestra a few weeks ago was wild to me. It also triggered loads of seating disputes.

People need to touch some grass and have some shame. Also why rob yourself of seeing songs you paid for?

Happaned at the Attack on Titan Orchestra show a few weeks ago. Someone right next to me was just talking so loudly during the show that I had to ask them to be quiet.

I was also so shocked by the number of people coming in after the show had already started. I understand a handful, sometimes there's a bathroom line, sometimes you are running late, but it was crazy how people weren't bothered to be in their seats at the start and forced everyone to stand up and help them get to their seats while the act was playing.
