Thank you!

You know, that's a great question! I haven't fully decided that fate just yet. I'm currently DDing a 2016 GTI SE with PP and a manual for my company lease car (I've been tempted to do a journal for that car too). It's a stick 2-door and I'm honestly in love with it. The performance pack on the new GTI really gives you a solid 85% of the Golf R. I may just keep it and use that as my DD.

The Mustang will definitely happen due to the oncoming GHG regulations that begin in MY18. At that time, you will start to see N/A engines and V8's become extinct from volume cars. The Mustang GT will probably go to an Ecoboost V6 around MY20, and by MY25 the horsepower renaissance that we are currently enjoying will have come to an end. That and how much improved the new Mustang is have me in line to buy the right one when depreciation runs its 3-4 year course. I have a strong feeling that V8's and N/A 911's will become sought after by the 2030's.
Interesting. I don't tend to plan my car purchases that far ahead but I do expect the current N/A power engines to die, sadly.

I'd be looking at a GT350 pretty hard

What's the Evo intake do that the stock one doesn't?
