Picked up a 14 GLI Edition 30 on Friday.. LOVE IT! Decided that I needed to part ways with my Passat, I spent the worst year of my life in it and figured that something new might bring me some better luck.

That and I missed having something fun.

I found this car online in Austin last weekend and was contacted by the dealer on Monday morning. Hashed out the deal over the phone and made the drive on Friday when I had finally decided to go ahead with it.

I wish I would have snapped a few pics when I arrived. The car had a build date of 06/14 and looked like it had just rolled off of the transport when I was taken back to it. It still had the plastic wrapping on the hood, roof, trunk and bumpers. It felt like Christmas morning when I got to pull all the protective stuff out of the interior. Door panels, seats, sun visors, everything wrapped in plastic.

When I got in it, the car only had 5 or 6 miles on the odometer. I'm guessing that I was the first person to drive it off of the lot.

Here's some pics from tonight after I washed it.









Wiped down with some Megs Quick Wax.





Before I could tell them not to wash it, they had already done so and pulled it up to delivery. I've noticed a few minor spots, but I'll do a light polish to get out anything that I haven't seen or noticed.

Leads me to ask, what would you guys do if you were in my situation? I'm considering opti-coat and then a coat of DGPS. Does anyone recommend one coating over the other? I've read Mikes new car article, just didn't see any mention of coating.
