Wasn't the Microbus a death trap? or was that another car?

You can still find them, but the old aircooled microbus is rather collectable these days. Especially the 21 or 23 window versions. Wish I had a pic of it, someone in my hometown has one that's had the middle third of the body (the length of the sliding door) cut out. The thing is nearly as wide as it is long now, so it'll pick the rear wheels off the ground if you stop suddenly.

yeah, the microbus was a death trap cause you had about a half inch of metal between you and everything else out there, hehe
I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl, we ate lobster, drank piƱa coladas. At sunset, we made love like sea otters. That was a pretty good day. Why couldn't I get that day over, and over?

A guy I work with found a movie of a Viper that they suped up down here in Houston. It was able to do a quarter mile in under 10 seconds and supposedly had over 800 HP. I'll see if I can't dig the movies up for you, it was damn sweet.

Oh, and realistically, the next vehicle I buy will more than likely be an F-150. But if I could have my pick, I'd buy a 1969 Mustang Boss 429, Fastback.

or if you still want a VW, get a Scirocco or a Carrado.... That or if your looking for something in a more economy deal, get a VW diesel, Can beat the shit outta of dem and they keep on ticking, plus they are super cheap to run( I used to pay 15 dollars for Fuel for the whole month)

Nice, nice. The Dodge Vipers are nice cars. Even a standard model can spin the tires in all six gears (read: you can be going 100 MPH, shift from fifth the sixth, floor it, and the tires will spin so fast that they will not catch the road. At 100 MPH.)

Then again, what else would you expect with a 500 cubic-inch engine in a car that weighs under one ton?
