1998 Volkswagen Passat 1.8T
I bought my first brand-new car in May of 1998. It was a 1998 Volkswagen Passat GLS. I really loved this car. I encourage anyone who looks for a new car to at least go drive a Volkswagen. I had a lot of fun driving and modifying this car. It was also a great car to hold 4 adults and it hugged the road like crazy! Here's some additional information, including the aftermarket equipment that I put on the car:
