Looks like a Mini Cooper, Focus, and a C Class all had a big orgy, and this is the kid that came from it :p What's the specs on that thing?

Definitely looks like some inter-company relationships occurred ;)

What's the price tag?

What's a diesel station? Nice socal.rr.com hosting. I'm on socal roadrunner too.

*edit* the car actually looks pretty cool. Rally-style.

It's phat. I'll want one until I see 5M riced-out ones and then I'll be tired of them.
Although it looks like it comes somewhat pre-riced so maybe people won't screw with it much...
I can dream...

That looks cool. My mom used to have a Polo, now she has a Seat Ibiza.

Yeah, It's a nice looking car. But to be frank, It really ISN'T that practical, to be honest. GREAT SHOW THOUGH !!!!

Why? My 10 year old Jetta was built in Mexico. VW may have a plant in Mexico but they also have quality control.


I like it. The Lupo style front end is a really nice feature.
