2002tii vs 1600S14

[Dirk02]

Original 2002tii vs modified 1600S14. Who will be the winner? Which one would YOU take?

Both.

 

 

I haven't read the comments recently, but it was alluded getting the M2 into U.S. (with the S14 motor in it) would be very difficult.

how can you not chose the 72 golf tii...love the stance of the gray car, but having a 72 golf myself I'm kind of biased toward the golf color...

Tough call, I am a fan of unmodified cars apart from a 5-speed and bigger sway bars. The 1600 S14 just captures my imagination more, so I think it will edge out the Tii by a narrow margin. I have a watch on both auctions.

I haven't looked at either ad carefully, but I'm always happy to offer a....guess!  The S14 should bring more money.  If the Golf owner embraced originality, and installed stock steelies and wheel covers, he'd stand a chance, but right now he's neither appealing to the original-car fanatics nor the resto-mod fanatics.

Who you callin' retards?

no contest....anything with an S14 in it wins.

 

not that I am biased in any way.....:-)

Philosophical leanings aside (stock vs. modified, etc), that S14/1600 just strikes me as a much nicer, higher quality car. A no-brainer for me...

S14 1600 ALLLL day. 

 

But I've also been one to favor a tastefully modified car over originality. 

 

Perfect color, well curated, and Who doesn't like unassuming wide steelies?

Facebookers seem to favor the 1600S14 by a wide margin. What a great car.
