Loved to have seen a vid of it really fucking tearing it up.BDx13 - 8-9-2007 at 06:38 PM
i think that thing looks amazing.Dave - 8-9-2007 at 11:15 PM
and sounds mean.........BDx13 - 8-9-2007 at 11:31 PM
what do you think they'd try to sell that for if it ever went to market?
with those specs, it's definitely a high-end car, but it's still a vw.
it's quicker and has a higher top speed than the new Audi R8, which starts at like $120k...but it's still a vw.JawnDiablo - 8-10-2007 at 06:28 AM
i saw this in a magazine.
i doubt it would be made into a production car though, but who knows for sureXHonusWagnerX - 8-10-2007 at 07:47 AM
Im not a car guy at all, but thats impressive!Dave - 8-10-2007 at 09:09 AM
i dont think they'd ever make it into a production car, it'd cost too much.Dave - 8-10-2007 at 09:18 AM
not as impressive as that GTI, but check out this one someone is selling, here in my town:
VR6 Twin Turbo 370 hp, 385 torque moforn - 8-10-2007 at 09:20 AM
That sounds amazing. I think the engine's derived from the w12 they had in the Phaeton which was essentially two vr6s (a great engine in it's own
right) sharing a crank- so a v configured engine with each side being a v engine itself, hence the "w". I can't imagine this will go into production,
but it's a pretty cool display of what they can do.BDx13 - 8-10-2007 at 09:34 AM
shit, i'd buy that car for the license plate.Dave - 8-10-2007 at 01:42 PM

It will never go into production. The last time VW tried to sell a really expensive car was the Phaton and that was a disaster for the company. There
is no way you could keep that car under 100k while rocking a Bentley engine.
All that aside what an amazing project and a pleasure to watch. Thanks for the link.

MY wifes second car was a omni. That thing had a ton of issues. Funny story. For my wifes 21st I took her out and we got hammered at WALLABI's
steakhouse, and TGI FRIDAYS for more drinks. We split a blooming onion and shark meat at W and then at TGIF we had a spinach artichoke dip app.
Combined that with a massive amount of alcohol it was a timebomb. This along with the fact the passanger window never rolled down was a recipe for
disaster. Driving home I am listening to h2o and thinking about all the sex we're going to have when we get there and silently she is puking between
the door and her seat. Suddenly I smell something more foul than wastewater plant. She looks at me and says "we need to get home asap and STOP
DRIVING CRAZY". I bust out laughing and have to roll the window down and hang my head out the window. It was sooo bad. That car sucked. 3rdDistrict - 6-11-2009 at 04:08 PM
crysler did a;
Shelby Lancer, Shelby Daytona, Shelby Charger, Shelby Dakota, and i think a Shelby GLH
all dont sell for super much, and all were very limited production
with the ford shelbys going higher and higher, i know these will bump in value very soon!
holy shit, read this;
'Standard features for the 1986 GLH-S included heavy duty, power brakes (10.2 inch disc up front, 8.0 x 1.28 drum rear); tinted glass; various trim
blackouts and stripes; Bosch road lights; cargo-bay carpet; five-speed manual transmission with heel-and-toe pedals; extra sound insulation; high-back
cloth seats; AM stereo/FM stereo; full instrument cluster; 14:1 rack and pinion power steering; air conditioning; rear defroster; and leather-wrapped
wheel and shifter. The suspension used stiffer front anti-sway bars and fully adjustable Koni iso-struts with coil springs that could be manually set
up for different conditions. The rear used the usual semi-independent trailing-arm suspension'
