Not Audi content but VERY rare VW content!

I was browsing eBay looking at VW R32s and came across a very rare beast, especially rare in the US!

2001 VW Beetle RSi! Only 250 made, none officially shipped to the US. For those that don't know about the RSi, it's a Beetle race car pumping out 520 bhp!

Here's the for sale ad:

Pretty badass (for a Beetle) if I say so myself!

I think the North American market will never appreciate sport compacts enough.
Not to get off subject here, but always Europe had some great small fast cars.
Renault Clio V6 being my favorite, along with Audi S3 and more powerful versions of the VW Golf.

A friend of mine raced the Beetle RSi at Road Atlanta and he mentioned he had a great time racing it.

Looks like it picked up 30hp or so just by removing the flower vase from the dash.
