Do y'all know anything about a Volkswagen Rabbit? Recently got a 2009 VW Rabbit and I wanted to know if there were any fun facts or smth about it :] ik it was discontinued in 2009 but I HEARD that VW is making an electric Rabbit, but that's neither here or there

Do I know anything about Volkswagen Rabbits?

Well, I know it was called Golf in other markets, and that Volkswagen Golf is the name of my car, so we've got two things already! ;D

Needless to say, mine's the one on the left - and it's from the very same year as the first electric one!

This never got full scale production and makes mine look like a rocket (and believe me that's quite a feat) but it did exist!

As far as full scale production goes, the first electric Rabbit was the e-Golf that launched ten years ago with the generation right after yours and stopped production in 2020. But rumors do seem to have the next Rabbit generation to be nothing but. As far as fun facts on the Rabbit, though, have my other posts on its origin and some funky editions!

Links in blue are posts of mine explaining the words in question - if you liked this post, you might like those!

My 09 MK5 Rabbit

Decided to make a quick overview post of my 2009 MK5 Rabbit. Bought this car back in March of 2022 with around 96,000 miles on it at the time. It needed a little TLC but for the most part it was one owner with very low mileage. Pretty sure the car was only driven in the warmer months considering it had 0 rust. Bought it with the intention of being a daily. Has a 2.5 5 cylinder which is one of VW's most reliable engines ever, mated to a 5 speed manual. Perfect spec IMO. Now, onto the list of things I've done since owning it

Started with general maintenance. Oil change, spark plug change, needed new rear tires, just an overall overhaul on simple things.

After that I drove it and got used to it, just figuring out what else needed done.

Restored the headlights with Griot's Ceramic Headlight Restoration Kit (which I highly recommend).

Replaced the dogbone mount insert for a video for work.

Bought a set of Radi8 R8T12's speced at 18x8.5 +40 with some 215/40r18 Hankook's. Ran these with stock suspension for a month or two.

Finally got coilovers and dropped the car as low as I could reasonably go.

Threw on my MOMO Prototipo steering wheel that I had from my previous car.

Replaced engine and transmission mount.

Drove the car a bit, took a trip to Gatlinburg, just tried to enjoy the setup.

Front suspension needed an overhaul after the coilovers, so I got new aluminum LCA's with polyurethane bushings as well as new ball joints and tie rod ends.

Found a set of Audi A3 wheels that I decided to use as winter wheels

Ended up finding a APR Carbonio intake for a MK6 Golf that ended up fitting my car. Man I love NLA parts

Currently that's where the car sits. Going to work on redoing the interior this winter as well as getting a different set of summer wheels. I'm not stancy enough to really enjoy these Radi8's. Going to post more updates of this car when I can. If you want to see anything particular just let me know.
