Hell, just look at the article comparing the GL bugs in that VW Trends a couple issues back. They said even in there, that they didn't do 1/4mi tests, since the cars are intended more for long and winding trips. I think that's kinda all of Europe's idea on fast cars: how fast can you get through those winding mountain passes? Me personally, I don't really care if the car has a lower 1/4 mile ET, as long as I know it'll roast the Detroit Iron in a turn! I even did that in my bug a couple times, losing street races to Hondas (in a straight line) until we hit a sharp turn, then I kicked those kids a$$e$ straight to tomorrow!!
