What Year GTI Should I Aim for with a 10k budget? I am in need of an upgrade. I drive a 99 Camry with dents all over it and although she runs like a champ she certainly doesn't help me get dates at all. Now I turn to the GTI in hopes she will be my savior =P

With a 10k Budget, what year GTI should I try to get?? Also, have no idea what about the trim lines, which model should I try to get??

FWIW - My family owns an auto garage and we have automotive background (repair and smog)
