A "Stones" edition, thats cool as hell. All the really cool editions are acrossed the pond I swear. Just out of curiosity, what seperates the "stones" Edition from a Plain-Jane Cabrio?

Very nice car, hope to hear more about it as we don't see very many folks with the MKIII'3 around these parts. :D

lol, umm it has rolling stones stitched into all the seats and other places like gearnob, and the obvious suttle things like clear indicators, clear fogs, gti rear lights, white dials etc. bla bla bla.
thanks for all the comments!

Very nice. Sounds like my kind of trim package. Doesn't hurt that I'm a mild Stones fan to boot.

Very, very nice. It does seem that they get some wacky marketing packages in Europe. Doesnt hurt that Cabby one bit, though, she is a beaut!
