    me against the vw toureg

    Yesterday as i was coming from vermont i came across a toureg and it was giving me the hardest time it kept passing me, which surprissed me because i have never had a hard time against any other car specially a truck.Someone told me that vw makes a 450 horsepower toureg and i wanted to find out if anybody had heard of such an animal, thank you fustrated trans am.

    i am not sure about 450hp but i know that the make a 350hp 4.2l v8 and a 310hp v10. i guess that someone could do mods to it and get it up to 450 hp. is your car a stock 5.7

    What do you mean kept passing you? Do you mean you down shifted and put the pedal to the metal and he still passed you, and if so, how did he get behind you again.

    Is this a race story, i am so confused.
