    If i think about the weight issue, i (think about it) / (justify it) like this.

    What other small hatch out there has the rare opportunity of having a phat V6 engine in it?? Even as stock, it's still fast as f#@k!

    I love my car, even if it is a bit of a fatty. Hehe

    I suppose the main shock of it all was that its a small car yet weighs so much. I was expecting around the 1000kg mark.

    A CL or GL is probably close to 1000, but 1260 with a half tank of fuel and full trim seems so bloaty. Oh well...

    Even though the VR6 has a hard time against the MK2 16v or tuned MK4 GTi performance wise, neither of them come close on sounding as good or as fast

    Ha ha ha. I did not know that. I'm yet to see what it can do without a slipping clutch.

    5 door GL is 1076, an 8v mk2 5 door is 1002.

    But yeah, I just want a golf V6... I have to save for like 9 months for an R32 though... oh dear...
