Turbocharged 1990 Volkswagen Golf GTI 16V

In the Hawaiian town of Puako stands a distinctive Turbocharged 1990 Volkswagen Golf GTI 16V. Manufactured in Germany in the era that valued raw performance, this four-door hatchback bears the legacy of its lineage across continents. Originally destined for Japan, it spent time elsewhere before finding itself on the idyllic Hawaiian islands courtesy of a careful seller in 2018. The standout feature of this MkII Golf GTI is not merely its sporty good looks or robust German engineering, but the modifications applied under previous ownership: a Garrett turbocharger paired with Bahn Brenner Motorsport forged pistons and rods elevating power from the standard 16-valve 1.8L inline-four, promising an exhilarating drive along Puako's scenic routes.
