That is a pretty nice ride. I bet is is also fast. GTi's always ran circles around my BMW's. Nice ride! I would keep it.
Yes, it is a factory color. It is called Dusty Mauve Pearl. Only 29 GTI VR6s imported in this color. Less in Canada. You will be hard pressed to see another in this color.

Fast is an understatement. 95 specs Car and Driver specs rate it stock at o-60 in 6.5. With the chip, filter, exhaust, and lightened flywheel, it is probably closer to 6.2 or 6.3, maybe faster. And she corners on rails.

Unfortunately things change and we no longer need 2 vehicles. I also don't drive it very much. I have had it for a year and have driven it 5000km (3000 miles). It needs a good home.

I need to finish the basement in my house and have grown up a bit and no longer need a super fast car. I think now a 500E would be slow enough for me[:p]
