    VW - Your inner fast

    Have you guys seen the new GTi commercials that have the little "fast" sitting in the car with the guy, talking to him? It's a new design concept of the Rabbit logo, if you look at him, he's a twisted looking little rabbit. I want one! I looked on ebay, but I could only find one, and it was at $150! He looks like this:

    I saw somewhere that somebody made a "fast" out of an air freshener that looked pretty good, but I don't remember where.

      Yeah, i've tried to pick one up at work...apparently you get one only when you buy the car, one of those send it in the mail and they send it to you type of deals.

          I'm pretty sure that's the target campaign for most manufactures. Drive our bad ass fast car; it'll make you bad ass too!
          The BMW 318 is back. With a vengeance.

            i was on the VW website the otherday, and i decided to "build" a GTi for fun. anyways... i got to the end of the process, and just when i think they are going to give me the MSRP, i get a new window that asks me what kind of tail i want on my fast. there are like 4 different choices. i just thought those things were a ploy in their commercials. i didnt know you actually got one.

                  Yeah I saw it in the commercial and thought it might be a cool idea to actually sell them.

                    Oh, please... what do you expect car companies to do? Make nothing but commercials featuring middle-aged women driving their kids to school and going to the grocery store, in BMW M5's and VW GTi's?

                              I requested mine twice, to which they responded, it would arrive in a few weeks. Never.
