Paul-
You must have driven a really poor example of a S4tt-
they're very fast. There is no way you'd be able to
keep up with even a stock one in a stock VR6 GTI.

Fellas,

I also was dissapointed in the S4tts, I was close to buying one, but
ended up with the '95 S6. They are suprisingly slow, a while back I was
driving my buddy's '00 GTI VR6 with a 6 speed, and was able to keep up
with one, which was not chipped. And the VR6 is a peppy car, but not
truly fast. My S6 stock would pull significantly on both the 6 speed
Golf and the S4tt. Glad I didn't waste the extra money!!
