    Default Insurance had to ruin it for me.

    So last night i was up at gosset checking out the "NEW" GTi. Took it on a fun little test drive and fell in luve w/it. Filled out credit app. had them send my info to the banks. Worked out some #'s. They were gonna get me one in classic grey or white w/leather, sunroof, xm sat. radio. Today i went up on my launch break and get one for loaner for the day. It was the base model in red. I was very impressed with the handling and power. I was able to bark 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gear every time. Every turn i got in to i was able to hold it and have a sip of my deer park water courtesy of gossett. As the day goes on, i cant wait till i get off so i can get back to gosset and get me my "NEW" GTi. Then i get a call from insurance with my quote, Three hundred mother fucking got daamn dollars a damn month. I was expecting it to go up but not by $200. I wouldnt of mind if it went up like 50-100 extra a month.

    Holy hell that's expensive! I'm wishing I had something older jut so mine wouldn't be so high. I think I'm around $115 on my GTI. My other cars are less than $50 a month.

    its exspensive because its listed as a sports car.
    When I was a child, I used to talk as a child, think as a child, reason as a child; when I became a man, I put aside childish things.
