That's very odd.  I have the opposite impression.  My daily driver is 
a Passat GLX wagon.  It's a BIG car, but man, when I get on it, I 
feel a good push in the seat of the pants I haven't felt on any 
normal 16v.  Brett's, yea, but I said "normal." <G>  My 16v 
Convertible that's bored out to 2nd oversize pistons has a good push, 
but not compared to the VR6.  So that's really strange, cause a GTI 
is certainly smaller than a Passat wagon!!!
