The Passat is a 1.8 turbo. Its a really well balanced smooth handling, quick car. Its bone stock except for the chip. Im gonna race it next week.

The Cobra might suck...It has 18" wheels with the stock gears. That has to kill the gear ratio. Either way when I saw that car I wanted to race it. 96-98 Cobras just never worried me much unless they sounded different. I hope he comes to the poker game next week. I'll try to set up a 3 way race. I just took out my friends LT1 Camaro by a good car 1/2 so im feeling confident. I'll post the results if anyones interested.
