The cars are fun to drive. Ive driven my friends moded 1.8T GTI, and that was a fun little go-kart, I couldnt imagine it being a VR6 plus AWD.
From all the mags I have read though, they say the AWD really makes the cars HEAVY. Theirs plenty of mods out their for that motor. If I had unlimited funds Id go with the HPA Racing Twin Turbo Kit
