(Sorry about the quality of some of the pics, it's a bit hard taking a good photo when you can't look where the camera is pointing. ie: I was driving)

What makes you think that Polo is GTI, I see no badges referring to it?
And that Subaru looks like a WRX one, assuming the owner haven't changed the spoiler.
 
you can see the STI badge on the WRX, looks like he either changed the spoiler or he just stuck the badge one.

Well, I have these things. They're called eyes and through these 'eyes' I saw a badge on the bottom left of the bootlid that said G, T and I.
The driver was giving it some stick (once we were past the roadworks) and wow, that little puppy flew.

It was the feral bug eyed model from the early 2000's. That car was going too fast for an Impreza with a badge just stuck on it. It may well have been a WRX with a badge stuck on but yeah, way too fast fora base model riced up.

Hahah ok I believe you :)
I just thought that model wasn't out yet but it seemed to be.

A WRX is a goddamn rocket as well, not that big difference to STi on a straight road to be honest.

By the way, love that monaro!
 
^I believe Australia is the first market outside Germany to have the Polo GTI released :dance: :thumbup:
 
It has quite a powerful engine for such a tiny car. Golf GTI is some all-day, quite boring hatchback but which jumps away at the green light. So is the polo, which is even more surprising as it's even smaller.

I guess :)

A noob question: What's so special about Golf and Polo GTI?

Don't know about Volkswagen's market share in Australia...
I think we got the GTi very soon after it was released aswell and the Americans had to wait for it haha! That was a first.

But I don't like the way the Polo looks so similar to the Golf dressed up in GTI bodykit..

A ENZO IN CHILE???

A ENZO IN CHILE???

Im from Chile and about a year ago I see a ferrari (thats for sure) and I think it was extremely look like a Ferrari Enzo, Whats that? I really dont think there are people in Chile who has the amount of money to buy a so :? expensive car.
There are perhaps another Ferrari who is similar looking? probably a old one?

:oops:

Cool sig, but it's 1.4mb, and that's way too big! There are some poor beleaguered souls with crappy connections, too.

If it was red, then it was a F50.
 
THanks GOD the americans dont get the POLO GTI... too much car for them....
 
And another thing. Can somebody please explain to me why I saw a RENAULT AVANTIME!!!1 in NEW HAMPSHIRE!!!!111, of all places?!
:jawdrop:

It couldn't have been anything else. It was dark red, with a European license plate that was French. Probably was privately imported, but why would anybody want to import one of those?! It's a conspiracy, I tell you! :shock:

No picture because I was too busy driving the getaway car. Afterwards, my head promptly exploded and I crashed into a tree. Which then burst into flames. :?

Avantime?! Oh my god, there are two of them! (Avantime fanboys, Clarkson being the first)

(sincere apologies for also violating the PICS ONLY rule, but) and holy wow, let me add another mark to the list of cars that had to be imported. Driving from Orlando to Jacksonville, Florida on Wednesday, I saw an Alfa Spider. One of the 90s new body ones! I've been wanting to import a more recent facelifted Spider ever since the pics came out, but sheesh, I almost had to slow down to catch my breath, that's a seriously hot car.
 
i've seen a renault clio around here in michigan as well. i hear that Renault is planning on bringing their cars over here so that may be the reason.
