It’s Been in 3 Accidents and was TOTALED so I took it to CARMAX for Appraisal

1. The only trucks he'd ever do, proceeds to list two trucks without LS engines…. Either planning an LS swap, or planning on breaking the jetta money loss record.

2. This car has bad JuJu or a drunk driving. 3 accidents? Really…. put it in a car crusher and get rid of it. 10:18 My dad worked for Ford as a mechanic and has been a mechanic most of my life. He says those Ford lightning trucks are FAST, and will get away from you, to watch out. Lol in other words…. FASTTTT…. I have driven a few they are truly awesome. One of a kind.

3. How much $$$ did you dump into it?

4. Just take it to an outdoor gun range and charge people five bucks to shoot at it. Just put the poor thing out of its misery!! It’s probably the only way you can make your money back.

5. 38k km but 3 accidents???? I wanna see the old owners lmfaooo

6. Do you still have this car?

7. And spray painting with engine running and hot 😅

8. Im just imaginig all the cars that were parted out and thrown in the trash that were worth saving more then this gti tbat car is a horrible death trap

9. Sam, do the lightening rebuild. Great video, keep the content coming!

10. Yes on the lightning or viper truck. Also the 454 SS pickup from the 90s would make a cool rebuild.

11. Old vid but I'm going to guess $2500. Keep them coming!

12. he got 8 grand for this video.another poser

13. Runs great? Sounds like you are tumbling rocks inside the engine.

14. Don’t look at the Jetta as such a bad thing buddy. It allowed you to do an amazingly kind gesture for an awesome man in turbo mike and basically earned you a life long friend and a life long helping hand by a very talented mechanic and that’s worth a hell of a lot more then 15k. So I help this insight helps you view that car as an investment in knowledge and friendship more then a bad decision purchase in a materialistic item. Love your videos buddy.

15. Poor jetta

16. I’ll buy it for 1000

17. 1300

18. Sam, Sam, Sam. As I'm sure you know you can tell where the Jetta was made from the VIN, the first digit. W = Germany made, 3 = Mexico assembly. Since it's a GLI I believe it's German.

19. build a lightening

20. Yes!! Definitely do a SVT Lightning rebuild!!!!

21. Those cars are actually sold right in Germany or one of the Baltic states once they left the US. It’s easy to do as the EU has no VIN number register where you can check a cars history, you just gotta take the sellers word. Loads of Salvage Mercedeses, BMWs and VWs from the US and Canada pour into Europe each year just to be sold as mint, clean cars after some touch up. It’s sad.
    Also don’t fall for the “strictly for parts” story. The US Jetta has completely different engine, transmission and suspension components that are not compatible with the EU Jetta.

22. 3500

23. Really bad that you are passing this car on in the state it is in!

24. “Let me know in the comment section how hot the seat is”

25. Clean it up some and you could of got what u wanted.

26. Seats 👎👎👎👎

27. send that POS money pit to Germany!

28. I'm guessing $1,500

29. Why?
