Default Re: my 68 volkswagen will outrun my 07 pt cruzr?

Sorry to break the news to ya, it's a PT CRUISER, not a PT Racer. It'll do 15 seconds in a 1/4 mile with a top speed of about 110. It will keep up will 99% of ordinary traffic and most of us get decent gas mileage.

There's nothing short of dropping a few thousand dollars that will make it go any faster. A decent intake, free flow exhaust and a good tune-up are the only things that will help it maintain what it was built for.

The Turbo model is a different story, but were not talking about that now.

Nice BUG by the way. Had a 69 myself.
