Interesting. What the hell is that? A turbocharged VW? I think your dad is probably a very smart man....



I'd say you need to be at least 35 years old to own a car like that. It's not exactly the most practical thing in the world, and it looks like it might be too fast for you.



And seriously, it looks like it would lift the front tires pretty easily on take-off.

I like the effect of the smooth bends on the roll cage. Goes well with the curvy body.

its a vw type 1 with a shortened floorpan and a buggy body on it. turbo is taken off of it now tho, it has dual kadrons. yeah i agree that itd be too fast for me on the street considering how liong ive been driving, which is why i suggested keeping it in the garage (no car is in it right now) and only using it to go to the track.
