For the amount of money they want for the Veyron you almost have 2 McLarens

schwiiing...

I would rather buy myself a house for that amount of money instead of spending it on a car

^ Presumably if you had the money to buy this car, you probably have a house and a garage full of similar cars

 

[GTI2007]

I guess you are right about that and it would probably be placed next to his older sister the MP4-12C

i wonder if vw does actually build the mk7 rs. I know the r will be mainstream once it starts production as a higher class.

I would love to really see a Golf RS being build with the 2.5 TT RS engine in it

Have there been any conversions dropping the 2.5 into a golf? Seen the 3.6 of the R36 dropped in, so someone knows how to fiddle the electronics, but have not seen anyone do the 2.5...at least yet

I'm pretty sure the mk 7 will see this model come to life. Several people at VW that I've spoken to about it seem optimistic.

I haven't seen this happen yet, perhaps the engine really can't fit the bay - but if the 3.2L can then I don't see what the problem is. It fits nicely in the current A3.

Looks nice, doesn't it?

I already saw a Golf 6 R in Austria with the TTRS engine dropped into it on a German Golf R forum

I'm a member of that forum and never stumbled across that car. Quite the beast.

 

[GTI2007]

I would totally buy it cause you get the practicality of the Golf combined with the power of the ttrs engine while not looking that powerful from the outside

Would love a link to that if you got one handy.
