Pshaw! Tell that to Tsuter (fellow Pelican who's not foolish enough to spend time in OT) here in Wis. He has a crazy Bug turbo parked next to his crazy SC turbo. He claims the bug is faster than the SC. He figures he's at 225 HP and the car will do about 160 MPH. Before you call bull*****, know that I've been in his turbo 911. It's scary fast. Why claim the bug is faster if it's not? Not to mention he put a 6 speed with lsd in it to let her open up a bit.
Answers to the questions-
1. Yes-if you take care of it. Any car 30 years old that is still on the road has collectors value-even a Pacer.
2. Why not? Is it the best? No. Is it good enough to have fun in? Yes.
3. Not sure. The bug is a chick's car.
