Uhhhh....  The reason I mentioned the fact that someone built a 900+ hp GTI is
because George said, "That straight made me realize, no matter what kind of turbo
kit, NOS, Super charger, 3.2L you have.. a Jetta/GTI will NEVER be a real sports
car."  I'm well aware this particular GTI is way too expensive for my wallet, but
I still would consider it a "real sports car".
