teklord310 Posted September 2 Report Share Posted September 2 anyone else thinking *inspired by* Carrera GT? We all know Porsche and VW aren't exactly unaffiliated.Finally.. a real sports car. 2 seater, rear wheel drive. I hope they make it in true manual though. I'm assuming they had to develop the RWD powertrain from scratch though.. where could they have borrowed that from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigpoppanils Posted September 2 Author Report Share Posted September 2 maybe the next Golf platform is being built to support both FWD and RWD (as well as AWD)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
