Beetle turbo :idea:

[Golf Houso]

What does everyone think about the beetle turbo? Which is essentially a GTi in drag, I'd like to hear people's opinions on the car since I've grown quite fond of it and may contemplate acquiring one in the future.

Cheers, Branko.

Lol your just jealous cos i'll put a KO4 in it and blow your golf off! hahahaha!

No seriously, I want something different, like a caddy on airbag suspension or something...
Black dropped on R32 rims... hmnn tasty I agree!

Or perhaps a supercharged bora 4motion... hmnn choices choices...

Theres a dude on vortex that used to own a beetle turbo, one of my good mates cousins..

Although his gf drove it most of the time and he drove a GTI. lol

I reckon a Beetle RSI would be the goods. S3 in a different shell iirc.

my 2 cents - no on the new beetle.

something different:

work a kharmann ghia?

Polo GTi's are nice?

get a turbo diesel and work that?

A hardcore 3 door mk3 is still to be done down here tho there was a nice vr6 one that someone owns. Even a mk3.5 cabrio.

there is a silver beetle @ lapa sometimes slammed on 18" rs4 wheels.
looks pretty good. guy owner tho lol

i'd say go for it if you want one. is your choice. never owned one myself but have been in one before and after APR upgrades.. man what a difference.
When we purchased our new beetle cabrio we test drove a beetle turbo.. were not impressed with its power in stock form and found a 1.6 ikon that we test drove to be better in performance (wtf?!?!?) dont know what had happened to the turbo .. so we went for the cabrio. when we went for a drive in the apr upgraded turbo we were spewin we never got the turbo and did the upgrades... think they had 160kw.
unfortunately you would have to buy second hand.

i had a beetle loan car for a week (although 1.6 auto and barely drove it ) and let me tell you every single thing about the car is horrible, the whole thing is a complete POS, not just the engine that i had. the second you get into one to test drive it you'll want to vomit

sorry guys no offense to the 1 or 2 beetle owners on here, i just dislike the car

[SoVeReIgN]

A beetle is exactly the same as a Golf mk4 so it can't be too bad.. ??

Beetle turbo = Golf GTI

Beetle RSI (Didnt come to Aus) = Audi S3

Hmnn it looks like I'm gonna be getting a Bora 4 motion then...

then supercharging it!!!

After looking at car sales, the Bora sold me. Yep definately the Bora 4 motion, thanks for your honest opinions guys!

thank god for that! i had a ride in a 4motion v6 bora before i got my golf and i was very impressed... so close to buying it... you'll probably find that with a few mods it'll blow your head off with performance that you wont even worry about a sc
