    A couple of reasons that didn't make a splash..(it's cool as can be though)
    1. under powered at the time..todays little cars got a few more ponies
    2. how to best reinforce the roof, without spending much too much

    other than that, good idea..................

    YouTube - Banned VW Commercial

    Banned, of course, for not being "politically correct" (or would that be "ethnically insensitive"?).
