VW/Audi make amazing cars.
Thats right, this was last week with a rented Audi TT It would reach 250 easily and thats probably with the smallest engine available for that car.

Great top end in those cars, but you're still only talking around 160MPH.

I've spanked the Hell out of a modified Jetta just to try to get him to stop bothering me when I was bone stock. They're all bark and no bite.

Then he wasn't very modified.
My previous car was a GTI 1.8T witha turbo upgrade. It was quite faster than my stock Mustang GT.
I say was because of being side swiped into a median and then proceded into the ditch.
This led me to getting the GT with plans of a power added later.

Dont take me wrong, I love my Mustang and keep modding it to make it better but I am fully awarethere isalways going to be something faster out there, be it Muscle, German, Jap or whatever. and I respect performance no matter where it comes from, I just happen to prefer old fashion American muscle.

The sound that Jetta was making, he was modified pretty well and he had passed me when I was doing 90. He did hang fairly well up to about 120 but after that, he fell off. I may have run longer but he got pulled over by highway patrol instead of me.

Now the Audi, I would expect him to pull away at higher speeds. They have a better HP to weight ratio and a much better top end. There's always someone faster and some cars have surprised me, especially the 4 door variety.
