This VW Lupo comes with two V6 engines. Nice small and mean sports car!

The VW Lupo is a decent car. Sporty even in some cases. But adding Porsche Turbo brakes and 18" OZ rims seems a tad over the top. That is, until you see that big V6 poking out through the hood cutout. We can't imagine how nose-heavy this little runabout is with that lump out front, but fortunately we don't have to. The creators decided to take a novel approach to counter that weight over the front axle. They put another VW V6 in back. One powers the front wheels, the other powers the rears. Makes the roll cage an entirely logical addition now.

That is just insane!

Remenber back a few years, I think around 2000 at the big O sport compact show, there was a kid from Toronto with a blue MK2 GTI with a twin VR6, similar set up, his friends said he had problems with timing the power evenly. All in all it was a nice car, same as this one Luv
