Volkswagen Concept: Sexy Back

January 19, 2007

I’m bringin’ SEXY BACK!

Full GPS-equiped and web-enabled, the lightweight silver-grey alcantara interior with full 6-point rollcage is meant for business. VDO gauges monitor the engine vitals with renowned accuracy. Twin Sparco racing front and  stock rear seats, in contrasting black alcantara, with racing orange seatbelts cradle the driver and lucky passenger.

A custom designed, narrowed T3 beam with koni adjustable shocks,  front trailing arms and dropped spindles allow massive Brembo brake upgrades. Custom trailing Arms and same Brembo brake upgrades round out the rear. 18 inch TSW Evo alloy rims wrapped with enormous Dunlop radials are expertly fitted and helps blasts this sexy Squareback past triple-digit speeds.

A blueprinted Eurorace 3.0 liter, turbocharged, fuel-injected,  Type4 engine, mated to a 914-derived, close-ratio 5-speed gearbox is adequate to keep the M3 and S4s at bay.

The T3 pan was separated from the body to be massaged and reinforced. After the rollcage was welded on, the entire frame was powdercoated silver.

Bumpers are discarded, and the otherwise straight body was treated to a dose of Porsche Orange with a little of Sunset Orange Pearl mixed in.
