Well, this is one way to make it faster...the GTI W12

Just awesome! It certainly shows that the Germans still have a sense of humor!

I'm wondering how well the HPA R32 Stage II would hold-up against the W12 monster, given that it has the "advantage" of AWD, and is only short by 50 BHP...

I'm wondering how long before HPA makes their own W12-powered GTI. All it takes is one crashed Continental GT and one GTI owner with way too much money....

What layout is that going to be?
If thats a FF it WONT handle at all! It'll just be torque steer 👎
Although if its a 4wd it will probs get a bit of understeer but will accelerate like a rocket!!
If its an MR like I've read earlier on in the thread it may be perfect, well for a VW
It does seem a little stupid though,
Who's gonna buy a W12 650bhp Golf?
& How much will it cost!?

1. your font is kind of hard to read. Mind switching to another one?

Okay, so you've read that it is MR. Why do you ask if it is FF or 4WD then?

Although being fully functional, this isn't more than a showpiece (yet). Noone ever said you'll be able to buy it.

The Insanity!!

My silly American brain is still trying to figure out the part about a 202 mile per hour, 650 Horse VW Golf.

I love it.

Ferdinand: build it.

Who knows, it could start a new "ultra compact" class - with an LS7 powered Chevy Beat as a possible competitor.

Just Kidding.
