It’s already like that on the current cars.

No that’s the VR6

Most Karmann Ghias are hard tops, but yeah, you’re spot on otherwise. Mechanically, the only major differences are slightly differing gear ratios for some years, stiffer suspension+ front sway bar, and front disc brakes. Power was between 35 and 50 hp depending on the year, but that’s no different than the Beetle

It’s REALLY slow, on the rare occasion I commute with it I actually alter my route to dodge certain steep hills and so I can take the longer, more downhill on-ramp for the highway.

Oooh okay, I thought you were talking about the lack of overlap in the two groups, which is definitely a real thing. You see some guys get really into their Passats, but it is definitely a Jetta/Golf game for the new stuff

I’ve got a Karmann Ghia and a GTI, breaking down barriers!

Yes!

Thanks a-Aron

I don’t need to use a Viper as an excuse to walk past a Corvette at a car show. No, I don’t care that you have one of three 2001s optioned with an automatic, blue paint, and the factory installed floor mats.

It turns gas straight into noise with not much power as byproduct, and for once that’s not a complaint.

Agreed. The original Mustang, the Beetle, I think you can swing a Model T for that price, and I’m sure there are many more that I’m just not thinking of right now that are much more deserving of a spot on this list than a 944 turbo.

If they can put eyes in an F1 car’s windshield, they can put eyes in stick-on headlights.

If they can give an F1 car a windshield, they can stick headlights on a stock car.

That was my thought as well. Needless say, I am suitably excited.

I don’t like Corvettes and I don’t know Corvettes, but even I caught that one right away.

Pretty sure a new company going under doesn’t really count as scandalous. There usually has to be some sort of, like, scandal involved.

If you staged a race between that Beetle camper and that Honda Goldwing, it’d probably be a dead heat.

That GS finish had me on the edge of my seat for sure

We get it, you play a lot of Forza.
