The diesel Rabbit is probably the only driving experience more degrading
than a Chevette. It is spartan, noisy, and the motor mounts are poorly
designed and cause the car to shake all the time. And $3000 is on the high
side, even for a gas Rabbit in excellent shape.

The gas Rabbit, on the other hand, is a very good car. Not as reliable as
a Toyota, but lots of Fun-To-Drive and even more potential for performance
mods.
