Servotronic has it's downside, but what is it about the VR6.  It has no
more power or torque than the Audi V-6.  And it seems to be plagued with
mechanical problems from reading r.a.v, European Car, Car and Gut Fahrt.
Other than the novelty of the narrow V, I don't see it's value.

The Passat and 90 should have similiar power/weight ratios.
