Hotness. Pure Hotness.

Post by Speedlaw »

Just found this car, it's Tino Gartners car, apparently. He's on www.6n2.de and the info says 'over 180 hp'.

Yes, 180.

So could this be one of the few 1.8T's there are out there?

With the wheels and the (subtle) styling, I give it a 8.5/10.

What's with the arches though? In that pic showing the rear of the car, the arches look as if they've just been primered.

Pics are hotlinked, site is stated on the pics too.

I've had a close look (again) but those arches look a bit messed up to me. It's like the edge of the arch is curled up like a pouting lip. Looks a bit wavey too. Am I exagerrating? (sp)

well if it's really a 1.8 T hidding under the hood...why didn't show the picture? It's easy to say Swap from 1.4 to 1.8 T....

Otherwise, the arches must as simply been pulled and not even repainted....or in a bad way...

nothing really special to me :roll:

The wheels look like Venoms.... If he had a Dodge Viper engine it still wouldn't hide this fact. :D

The arches have been flared, but not properly... I think

The wheels aren't Venoms actually. This is what the info said:
3-teilige Largo Design Felgen (Typ1):

VA: 9x16" ET33 mit 215/40 Pneumant Reifen, sowie 10mm Distanzscheiben
HA: 9x16" ET21 mit 215/40 Pneumant Reifen, sowie 15mm Distanzscheiben
I think that they're pretty rare tuner wheels.
