That is weird. It's like a bad movie, they were too cheap to get a real car, so they used a fake soundtrack with a VW clip.

OMG! That is so cool! Love that sound from a VW sure is gonna make people do a head snapping double take when they here it go by.
Must be awful light. Sure would be nice to know the hp/weight ratio.

Dude, bad *** I swear I saw a bug the other day and thought it would be a neat swap. There is video of a vw van with drive train from a porsche twin turbo like 540hp smoking all kinds of cars at a road course.
