6L twin turbo and all they could get is 650hp? Weak. :lol:

This thing is pretty sweet though. I doubt it'd ever be a production model (or reasonably priced if it was), but hot hatches with big-ass motors are always nice.

ill take it!

If somebody gave it to me, I would take it, but there is already something that looks better and probably performs better called a Porsche Twin Turbo, and it is AWD!

Pass.

Ever since my roomate got his GTI and I have heard all the things that have gone wrong with it, I will never own a VW. Stuff just falls off...I guess they have a reliable engine, but...I think they are ugly anyway.
