"i wonder why the boxster won in the first video and lost in the second."


Hah, I was going to say it's because the cameraman's weight is making the difference in whichever car he's riding in, but I realized the cameraman's car seems to be doing better, not worse with the extra 180 lbs. Hmm...magic power-inducing camera?

Suburban Function?
I loved the old Corrados! That's what I wanted in high school (and the MR2) while my friends lusted after Camaros & Mustangs. GTIs are cool, and that DSG transmission is unbelievable.

No, it's a 20th AE GTI - Imola yellow paint and the plain black sideview mirrors are the giveaway. The wheels are very similarto the R32s, 18s and a very similar pattern - don't think they were identical, though.
