        Wasn't the 2.0L 16V offered over there?  I think that was 132hp
w/cat.  As far as I know the G60 was only offered here in the Corrado and
MAYBE in the first Passats.  But never in the Golf or Jetta.  How does the
G60 perform over there.  Here it is pretty unreliable.  The Supercharger
needs to be rebuilt every 100 thou KMs.  Any North Americans know about the
diff between the GLI Jetta and GTX?
