i don't know about you guys, but not knowing when or if we'll see pump deuse motors or passat tdis is creating a bit of a dilemma.
would you for instance, sink a coupla grand in upgrades if you felt in '03 there would be a PD-150 passat wagon? if you thought your dream tdi would be available in 2006, would you hold back and save up for it?
i know a lot of us are planning to keep these tdi's for a looonnnng time, but how many will change their minds if a jazz blue golf shows up with a superior tdi engine, 4 motion, and 6 spd tranny?
if you have money to burn, then it's a moot point, i guess. my thinking is along the lines of bang for buck, and recoverable investment. that's why i've upsoluted and some bilstein hd's, and interior upgrade are on my short list. those mods address the 3 major gripes i have about my current ride's power, handling, and seating material (read: lint magnet par excellence), and the shocks and leather would add some value to a possible sale.
i'd like to hear your thoughts.
