OK- I've got other toys but this one wins.After winterizing the boat I cannot help but post it here. the Lift and set alone was $600, add a tank of gas, clean the bottom, flush the lines and put her back in her slip... I think I paid less for my daughter's car.
It holds 200 gallons- has twin 502 Volvos and will burn 4 gallons a minute at full throttle which is about 42 MPH. It makes a great wake, and the with above waterline exhaust sounds incredible, just like an off shore race boat- Happy Holidays- Mike

Thanks... very nice. I have a sweet spot for VW. It was my first car many, many years ago. I've had some nice rides in my lifetime, 5 M3's Modified 04 E55, Jeep SRT8 to name a few but seeing peoples face when you roll up in a basically stock looking VW and just leaving them behind is priceless.

IT is priceless to leave behind the ricer crowd and those pesky WRXs. The best are the BMW guys. They never see it coming. Its all stock exterior with 17s so it a sleeper. The sound is the only indicator that something is up....

[QUOTE=JBH;4913901]By itself, it's not a money pit - it's how I use it that costs me so much
Nice car- I looked hard at these. Is yours a Birkin, or a Stalker? Judging from what looks to me to be the mazda motor I'd guess the Birklin. How's is the performance? Is that road Atlanta? I actually think I have seen you before- Cheers-Mike
