i highly doubt it. these guys wouldn't trade their mk3s for an mk4, not to mention an mk2! good luck dude.

well i mean if its possible .. i mean would definitely give up my 1998 jetta glx... for an mk2.. that way i could either totally eliminate my monthly car note.. or.reduce it drastically by having a smaller loan.. to pay back.. just wondering..
let me know please some one
thanx

I don't think its a dumb thing at all to be honest. I would sell my mk3 to go back to a mk2 again if it was right. I'm talkin full respray in dolphin grey, smoothed items over...rallye front end, fitted 18s, or some dished BBS 15s and go euro like EVERYONE else is doing right now. Only way i'd go back to a mk2 overall though is if it had a 1.8t in it, or a VR6. Have the engine rebuilt and it'd be like being in a new car. Mk3 dash swap or corrado dash, full recaros....oh yes it could be nice.
My freind with a turbo mk4 Jetta VR6 is very close to doing this same procedure. 91 Jetta, drop in a Vr6 and a turbo and well it's time to say see ya!

Very cool idea IMO. Good luck bro. I'd almost def do it if i could have my Mint 2 DOOR 87 jetta back with all its pwr options and a turbo VR6 to drop in. Then i too would go back to mk2 http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

I don't think any MK3er in their right mind would go for the MK4 but I would love to have a MK2 16v GTI with the 4 rounds on the front. But, I would keep my MK# and buy the MK2 outright.

i got a 1987 gti 16v. leather interior. 197,000 miles on the clock. has some idle problems and hesitates when cold but after its in gear she runs with the best of them. i'm willing to make a deal

I would trade my 2.0T a3 for a 1.8 16v turbo mk2 gti or GLI in a snap.. if the car was properly put together.
