My 2013 GTI is about to hit 100k miles, what should I replace it with? Unfortunately they haven’t sold a 2-door GTI in the US since 2016. Maybe I’ll just get a Golf R but the 4-door golf just bores me to tears.

The 2024 GR Corolla circuit edition has a bright electric blue as an option. Looks loving nice but for like $50k out the door…this is not what I signed up for getting into hot hatches!!

Speaking of CELs my 2013 GTI throws a “cooling system performance” CEL every so often, especially when we have these 70s days into 40s nights and I’m driving home at 6 am. Probably a coolant temp sensor gets something kind of wacky, the heater blows hot and the engine doesn’t overheat so :confused:

Did my 4th autocross even in my 2013 GTI, and the day before did an SCCA starting line school. What a little trooper, I got positive comments on the car from the instructor, saying he was surprised how much speed and grip the car had for being FWD "it almost feels like it has an LSD" (it doesn't)

I'm definitely the limiting factor but so far this ol dog with 100k miles keeps doing what I ask of it. May look into adjustable shocks and a sway bar this year.

Maaaaybe, though don’t tell anyone I’m thinking about a RWD car once it comes time to replace.
