off topic and a bit late...but still sick.

<center><img src="http://www.vwvortex.com/news/10_01/10_25/02.jpg"></center><p>
6.0-liter/600-horsepower W12 engine propels Volkswagen's supercar from 0-60 mph in less than 3.5 seconds and to a top speed of 220 mph.

During high-speed, 24-hour testing in southern Italy, the W12 coupe shattered 10 world records. Records previously held by the esteemed Ferrari 550 Maranello and Chevrolet Corvette LTS.

P.S > has anyone seen after market rims like these...you think my car will go faster?<ul><li><a href="http://www.vwvortex.com/news/index_w12coupe01.html">http://www.vwvortex.com/news/index_w12coupe01.html</a</li></ul>

They're like a 7-spoke MAS Roger

With a bit of bend in them.

Not sure about that rear end.

Looks like one of those fiberglass kits they put on VW bug mechanicals. Maybe they're saving the better design for those with the $$ to buy Bugatti.

VT mostly

Okemo and Killington so far, Stowe from Jan 5 through 8, Mt Snow for the next few weekends, and I might spend some time in NH if I have a day to kill.

Probably heading to Okemo tomorrow.
