Re: 1.816V to 2.016V Driving Impressions (long)

I ate an si for a snack the other night in my beetle.  Doesn't matter how
dark he made the windows or how large his exhaust tip was.  Actually, I'm
not sure he had an exhaust tip cause I never saw the back of him.  Hehe.

I think I'm gonna paint "have a nice day" on the underside of that little
guppy tail.

The beetle weighs over 3000lbs.  I can't fathom a 1.8t in a mk 1.
