    Yeah, as an ex-Camry owner myself I know the feeling, I kept thinking I owned a Veyron with two additional turbochargers.

    It's surprisingly easy to confuse it with über powerful cars that don't even exist.

    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

    Mk3 2.0 8v of fury.

    17.3 @ 80mph; 130mph @ 6100 in 5th gear (Scirocco 16v trans); 28mpg no matter how I drive it. PS and it's lower than your mother's standards.

    16.8 @ 135 km/h, tops out at 180 km/h (limited). 0-100 in about 8.6 seconds IIRC. Automatic too.

    I want another car. Now.

    BMW 118d

    0-100km/h in 9 seconds. Top speed, officially 210km/h but it can go a little over that. Best of all it does all of this while using little fuel. It's not exciting though.
    Lack of charisma can be fatal.
