This Insane VW Golf GTI VR12 Has Two Engines, Makes 1,600 HP
The Volkswagen Golf GTI enjoys a massive enthusiast following, and as such we鈥檝e seen some crazy customized variants through the years. All-wheel drive GTI conversions, massive engine swaps, widebody kits, it鈥檚 all been done. However, we鈥檝e never seen anything remotely like this green monster, which pretty much takes everything we just mentioned and combines it into one car. As for the engine swap, it鈥檚 actually more like an engine addition. Look under the hood of this GTI and you鈥檒l see a VR6 engine with a turbo bolted up - not an uncommon sight in the modified VW scene. Look in the back, however, and you鈥檒l see another turbocharged VR6. All combined, the engines are said to produce 1,600 horsepower (1,193 kilowatts), managed by a pair of gearboxes that can be operated separately or linked together. For that matter, the GTI owner mentions in the video that all of the car's powertrain components can function independently.
At one point the GTI drives away with just the front engine running, and there are separate brake controls for doing individual front-and-rear wheel burnouts. How freaking cool is that? As you鈥檇 expect, a twin-engined all-wheel drive GTI with 1,600 hp is fast. This video shows the car making a half-mile pass at the Pikes Peak Airstrip Attack, where it reached 183.74 mph (295.7 km/h) in what the owner said was a scary run. Considering the car lacks any appreciable aerodynamic tweaks we can totally see it being a handful at high speed. At least the parachute did its job. The video then jumps over to some quarter-mile drag racing, where the GTI runs 9.06 at 156.9 mph (252.5 km/h) after doing its cool front/rear burnout procedure. Sadly the time couldn鈥檛 be topped, as the Frankenstein VW obliterated its gearbox - or rather, one of its gearboxes - on the next run.
Not as such, although the volkswagen touareg diesel and practical.

5,830 US) on the road, with 120,000 kms (74,500 miles) on it. That makes it the best value I've seen for a car, period, considering the age, condition, quality, type of automobile and reliability. Of course, your search will vary. The features are a big draw, as is the reliability, which carries a very good reputation. Doing my research, I found that the 2000 and 2001 models had some issues, but the 2002 and 2003 are fine. The example I got was absolutely flawless. The interior was in brand-new condition (no wrinkles on the leather even) and drove like a brand new car - no squeaks, rattles, or bad noises of any kind. This was very impressive compared to other cars I've seen of the same age and mileage. One of the bigger features of this Maxima is the use of the 3.5-liter version of Nissan's VQ V6. This engine is used in many Nissan and Infiniti products, but perhaps made most famous in the 350Z and G35 cars.
Nissan/Infiniti use a fancier exhaust to give the engine a more exotic sound in those cars, and it's a real shame that the exotic exhaust note isn't present in this car. This engine has won a lot of awards, and in some ways it's easy to see why. It's incredibly smooth and fast-revving, and produces great power all the way from idle to redline, building smoothly with no dead spots in the rev range. What I personally don't like about it is that it makes close to 50 hp less in this Maxima than it does in some other cars, which is a huge difference. I also don't like that the sound has no character to it. This is not a big issue to most people, but to a car enthusiast like me, it matters - it sounds pretty utilitarian, like a Ford minivan V6 or something. Lastly, I dislike how it requires premium fuel. My other complaint with the Maxima is that the suspension just doesn't have the right balance.
