Wow, Tyler, such pessimism!! I think you've been hanging around me too =
much! I would believe most of them but I am an optimist when it comes =
to power/quality of German cars. I also believe that an MK4 could do =
195mph (which is what a hair over 320kph is) since I could do 140mph in =
my Rabbit with 150 or so hp. besides, these guys are probably geared =
for the Autobahn and can get a good running start. Then probably =
started in Frankfurt and didn't let off and snapped the pic in Munich! =20

I bet most of those are faked. Unless that site doesnt post anything =
if they don't have the actual video. Lots of those pics you can't even =
see out a window and some of the ones that you can see out the window =
doesn't look like its really going that fast. I'm guessing a lot of =
these are people putting their cars on jack stands are reving the engine =
up in gear and taking a photo. And it would be very easy to put the =
scenery in the window. Also, I've never seen anybody get such focused =
pictures in a car thats really going that fast. =20
