Abt Cup Widebody GTI VR6 Turbo - 52k miles

[Thatcher]

My old GTI is back for sale again w/ 52k miles, by the current owner in Maryland - $13k as is - derek.moyer@hotmail.com



The car won it's class at H20 International every year it's been entered, and is featured in October 2009 PVW. The car idles like a stock vr6, it's a very reliable turbo setup. The body work was all done correctly,
no short cuts were taken, at any point. This car helped show me what it means to be truly dedicated to a project, from start to finish.

Abt Cup Widebody '98 GTI VR6 HPA Turbo
Currently has 52k miles on everything
Located in Maryland but willing to ship at buyers expense

2015 update: Front bumper crack was from a raccoon. Back passenger side paint crack was from a hit and run at car meet. Runs great. Pulls hard. Only 10.5lbs spring in wastegate, makes great power. Derek (the seller) also has a 2.9 vr schimmell build bottom end 9-1 compression & forged pistons, if the buyer wants more safe power.
