ITS FOR SALE!

[@007jetta7]

$9,500? I know a little bit about these modifications, and for that price that's a damn good deal! If I wasn't out west I would seriously consider buying it. You essentially have what i'm slowly trying to build. It will be sad to see it go, your channel has been a huge motivation for my 2.5

[@SubsurfacePodcast]

Major thanks man for sure. Actually I have to update it as I threw a price out there and a few guys in the 2.5T chat urged me to raise it to 15k lol. I'm not going to list it that high, but it's currently at $12k.

[@007jetta7]

@@SubsurfacePodcast $12k still seems more than fair. Best of luck selling it, I'm sure someone will be very happy to take it off your hands.

[@SubsurfacePodcast]

@@007jetta7 Thanks man. I hope it takes a while to sell. Love the car

[@aznerol0770]

Man, I hate to see you let this car go. Watching your progress has inspired me to upgrade my '09 mk5 Rabbit after keeping it stock for a long time. It's stage 2 with IE tune and hardware at this point. Not sure that I will add a turbo to this motor. If I do, I'll definitely refer back to your videos. Best of luck to you on buying your house. It's a good trade off.

[@SubsurfacePodcast]

Thanks man! I really appreciate that. It never gets old hearing about that stuff.

[@EastDallasKicks]

Those look like sparco wheels

[@jboesz6569]

Wish I could afford to come buy it off you. Good luck. It’s worth it.

[@luxtin1]

I gotta get my shit together and finally install that C2 kit, I need some power in my life and hopefully I’ll finally fall back in love with my car. Thanks again for the kit and good luck with the sale!

[@SubsurfacePodcast]

You will be so happy lol. That turbo is a torque monster.

[@EastDallasKicks]

I wish I new you were gonna be selling this today. I would have saved up 6k quick af instead of pouring all my money into my garbage rabbit

[@will.dornon]

Is it sold yet?

[@SubsurfacePodcast]

It's not. I'm swapping in a low mileage engine here in 2 weeks with plans to get it on the dyno. Then I plan to make an I'm depth auto trader ad and ebay ad.

Breaking my heart 💔

[@jacobm92]

lol cant say i blame you. i subbed when i first bought my rabbit January of last year, and you made me realize that even though rabbits are cool, they're a lot of time and money if you want to mod them. so i steered away from that. needless to say, that piece of shit is now in a junkyard. not that the rabbit itself is a piece of shit, but mine for sure was. you planning on getting a golf or something?

[@SubsurfacePodcast]

Most 2.5s are so reliable people never have any major issues. But when you highly modify them and like to race, things will break. That's how it is lol. As for my next car I don't know. I daily a 2013 Camry and and planning to buy a house as my next big thing. After I have the garage, I want my next car to be RWD and alot faster.

[@noblevengeance312]

Aw man, sad to see this one go. The price is excellent though, wish I was able to afford it. I’d buy it right away

[@jayhardway23]

The 2.5L motors are so common I can grab a low miles (~60k) longblock with the automatic transmission attached for $550~$800. Ever since I came across your channel I've wanted to start my first "built" engine 100% optimized NA and go with the 6-Speed and try to optimize the gear ratios, etc so much love for the engine and the VW platform in general I daily a Passat TDI and as much as I love the infinite torque (seriously, never wants for power even at 130mph) ...I miss my bone stock MK5 2.5L that I absolutely thrashed for 150k miles (but kept up on maintenance with)!

[@guywithaname1]

wondering what car youre going to switch to

[@SubsurfacePodcast]

Nothing for a while. But it will be rear wheel drive that's for sure.

[@BortSchlort]

I got an 11 Jetta se with the 2.5 just recently put some coil overs on it and it has some older golf wheels I wanna start getting into performance mods for it any recommendations or advice

[@SubsurfacePodcast]

Your best bet is to join the Facebook group "VW 2.5L Group"

[@primalurges_]

I want to buy this but you've caught me at the worst time, if it's not sold in a month I'll shoot you a DM

[@SubsurfacePodcast]

Will do man!

[@CarsAndCoffeeKings]

This makes me sad AF....

[@SubsurfacePodcast]

Don't worry I'm sure I'll have it for a little while longer until the right buyer comes. Until then I do still want to meet up with other 2.5 owners. Maybe an Orlando 2.5 meet later this year???

[@sumslight278]

Is it sold yet?

[@SubsurfacePodcast]

Not yet. I'll be replacing the engine in a week so it'll be put back up in an ad after that.

[@sumslight278]

@@SubsurfacePodcast how much do you think you'll sell it for after that?

[@sumslight278]

You looking to trade at all?

[@SubsurfacePodcast]

@SumSlight I had it listed for $9,500 before. The new engine has 35k miles so it'll probably be at 10k. I'm not looking to trade because once I sell the car I'll be looking to get a house.
