Desperate Fans Go To Desperate Measures

Woman gets a Volkswagen GTI in exchange for Szechuan sauce

 Rachel Marie was lucky enough to get ahold of a packet of Szechuan sauce. According to The Drive, Marie intended to trade it online for a set of pins. Instead, she was offered a MkIV GTI. It's a good one, too, with a five-speed manual and Volkswagen's 20-valve 1.8-liter turbocharged inline-four. This writer was very close to buying a similar car a decade ago.

It's not clear what state the car is in, but the trade seems to be worth it (unless it needs a new timing belt). Still, congrats to Rachel for cashing out before McDonald's brings the sauce back in full force sometime next month, tanking the Szechuan sauce market by flooding it with new currency.
