Comments |
Has
a complete airbrush-job on the exterior and interior done by Hans
Werner Sahm (see detail photos). The airbrushing is titled "St.
Helena".
Also
has quite an extensive audio system:
Clarion
CDC6500R, CD/RDS/Tuner
2 x 10" Crunch Free Air Subs
2
x midrange speakers
3-way
front speakers
Hifonics
Hercules amp for the subs
Soundstream
D100 II amp for the fronts
Helix
crossover
There
are too many mods to list, but as an example, he has repositioned
the radio antenna to the rear quarter panel and has equipped his
Cabrio with the bigger VR6 GTI airdam.
Really
nice guy...he told me about the "latest and greatest"
trend in Germany back in November 1998: Golf 4 look headlights
for the A3 cars. I must've been the first to have a set in the
United States!
