Maybe it was the one I drove - I found myself pushing the steering wheel in a bid to get up a relatively modest incline. I was also quite alarmed by how quickly things were passing me.

Then again, my daily at the time was an RX-8.

thats quite a point of comparison

beetles are fun but arent that powerful, and its an old car so you need to be on top of maintenance.
