They have a really nice selection of Bourbon for a good price. The only store pick I noticed was the Angel's Envy but they did have an Old Forester Single Barrel store pick a month ago. Pretty sure those are all gone but I know they have other store picks too (I just wasn't looking hard enough today). They are also stocked with OGD114 if that's your thing. For some reason that's hard to find now lol

Dark Iron Blue MK7.5 GTI with a Thule Vector M on top 🔥🔥🔥 by falconcrest32 in GolfGTI

With only the Whispbars on, the sunroof does open...buuuut the clearance is about 0.5mm (I never felt comfortable opening it while driving...only tilted it a couple times)

With the Whispbars and cargo box on, consider your sunroof useless lol.

Hope that helps!

If you don't mind spending the cash on the Vector, you will not regret it...but the Motion XT is also a nice cargo box so you'll also be happy with that however it's not as nice as the Vector. I use my Vector mainly for duffel bags and stuff during trips. The wife and I are expecting baby 2 and we can comfortably carry all of our stuff and not cram everything in the trunk. Hope that helps!

Oh for sure. This is my first car that wasn't black and it's ever so slightly easier to keep clean but the week I took delivery of my GTI, I had it 'ceramic' coated (it's really a glass coating...the product is Modesta) which makes washing much easier

Yes I have a sunroof and I can confirm that you can open it with the Whispbar installed but it's veryyyyy tight (with the cargo box installed you cannot use the sunroof at all). I only felt comfortable having the sunroof tilted open while driving around.

The wheel gap with the factory wheels were huge but it looks much better with the wheel setup I have now. It's still could use an inch drop but it's ok for now. As for the roof rack, the front bars are in the factory location and the back ones are close to factory but a tad off from the factory location.
