Car of the Month: MKIV of all MKIV’s

Mar 03, 2011 in Car of the Month

This must be one of the most respected and loved GTI’s in Canada! It’s low, it’s clean, it’s unique and it’s owned by a … LADY!

Here is what CJ told us about her car:

“The GTi has changed quite a bit in the 4 years I have owned it. At first I wanted to keep the car mildly lowered and go balls out on power. Started buying parts to go FI and then this nice “Street Racer” law was instated and I said screw this, no point to having a High Powered car with that law in effect. So plans changed quickly afterwards. Sold those parts I had bought for more aesthetic looking parts. About 90% of the mods were installed by myself, some of the bigger jobs with the help of friends and my forever supporting boyfriend Marc. I love installing stuff on the GTi, it passes time and keeps me out of trouble. When there is something I cant do myself, the work gets done at Advance Autowerks. Any paint work was done somewhere locally.

There will be a few subtle changes to the the GTi for 2011, but will be keeping those changes on the DL for now. :)”
