If you ignore the Phaeton issues, then yes, this is easily the best. I'd love to buy a W12 and drop some turbos on it.

I could get ~4 mpg in my Evo if I tried. Conversely, I could also get well over 25mpg if I tried. Stock tune, which was pig rich under boost. Unfortunately most people drive like asshats. The throttle pedal isn't an on/off switch. Turbo charged engines suffer the most from asshattery with the throttle.

I found this funny because more than likely the fixed lamps they were installing weren't DOT approved.

Yum!

Let me put on my snow suit: I want more pictures of the Alpine mountains

Good luck. Unfortunately in the minds of racing game producers we need 60 variants of a Skyline, but not a couple of variants of cars that people actually buy and drive.

The regular mito is in Forza 4 ;)

My GTI was built in Mexico. Meh.

I've actually seen one of these on the street. I'd never seen one before, nor have I seen one since. Really neat.

Maybe he made a bet on what it was going to go for.

w00t. can't wait.

I guess I should just not come to Jalopnik at all with these spoilers.... :P

VW - "German engineered power"

I salute you, sir.

That would be beyond horrible.

Ugh. Now I know what I'll be doing in class tonight. Thanks, I think...

That's craaazy!

"for relaying some awful advice he was given about said cars"

Transfer cases break easily? No, not really. Stock '94+ transfer cases in VR-4s are VERY strong. Pre '94 t-cases were weaker, yes, but there's billet options out there. Besides, they don't break unless you abuse them.

As a former owner of a 3000GT VR-4, I think you're an idiot. I daily drove it for two years and it was perfectly reliable. Had old car issues due to neglect by previous owners, but it was fine.
