I'm sorry, but to see this thrown around so often is disheartening. I am frankly sick and tired of hearing this worn over nonsense, becuase there's nothing substantiative to continue propping this one up. And sorry, a picture of some Golf sitting in a lot that had a fire hardly translates into definitive "evidence". For someone who is so against perceptions, I would have hoped you would toss this old musty one over as well. The reality is, this is garbage at its best, sorry.

Yeah, the lack of torque is real appealing.
