And to think it only had a 3.6L V6 in it with 368 kW (493 HP)

Just whack on 2 hairdryers and it would blitz up to 10k RPM

Hmm.. That sounds like Polo GTI fast to me! Well.. Almost anyways.

What is it???

The Volkswagen W12 Coupe Concept from 2001
Also called the Nardo

Not sure if it ever made the production line, all i can find on it is concept pictures.


Essentially, it is the younger brother of the Veyron with a VW badge

2001 concept

In 2001, at the Tokyo Motor Show, Volkswagen Group released their most powerful W12 sports car concept yet, in bright orange. The engine was rated at producing 441 kilowatts (600 PS; 591 bhp) and 621 newton metres (458 ft·lbf) of torque; it could accelerate from standstill to 100 kilometres per hour (62.1 mph) in about 3.5 seconds, and had a top speed of 350 kilometres per hour (217.5 mph), weighing just 1,200 kilograms (2,646 lb). It was one of the fastest sports car concepts in the world. It was created by Charlie Adair.



At the request of then Volkswagen Group CEO Ferdinand Piech, Giorgetto Giugiaro and his Italdesign team was tasked to design a Volkswagen sports car, with instructions that it had to accommodate a 12 cylinder engine in a W configuration, be mid-engined, and also be able to be configured with Volkwagen's Syncro four-wheel drive system.

Another reason for its conception was to prove to the world that Volkswagen Group could build a large and reliable engine for its luxury car, the Volkswagen Phaeton, and its sport utility vehicle, the Volkswagen Touareg.

Maybe to "Fast and Furious" but here is the best NSX in Oz. Awesome bit of kit.

NSX GT....Remember it as Nico's NSX.
