This is a little embarassing to even mention...don't worry my lightning won but damn those little bugs got some top end. Has anyone raced a new turbo beetle. It was no match from start or finish for my truck but as I was backing down under a hundred that little car went by! It must top out over 3 figures easy. :eek:

one of my "female acquaintences" has one. they arent too bad. I just felt weird driving a bubble though. I felt like a city titty with a turbo. as with all turbo vehicles, their power is in the upper rpms. AKA low gear or freeway. If all I did was drive a car on the freeway I would take turbo over blower. just dont coufuse the turbo beetle with the turbo jetta deisal. wow, those are dogs.
