The Car: 1995 GTI VR6 5 speed. Black on Black/Gray. Stock wheels, lowered on Neuspeed Race springs over non-adjustable Konis. Engine is essentially stock save for some Neuspeed plug wires and an opened air-box. Exhaust is stock. The car gets driven 80+ miles per day, Monday through Friday. She's got over 165K on the odo!

The Man: I go by Jim. I live in South Mills, NC. I work in Norfolk, VA, for the Navy. My hobbies include my car, ren faires, cycling, paintball, hockey, and MMA. I'm pretty good with a wrench, so I do nearly all of my own car work. I can't recall the last time I actually took a car to a shop.
