Volkswagen Donuts Rated in Donuts

Today is the holiest day on the calendar, National Donut Day, so celebrate with us as we run through videos of Volkswagen doing that finest of car feats: the donut.

Volkswagen Golf VR6 Turbo 4Motion Donuts

Rain. A big empty parking lot. Powered rear wheels. A heavy foot. These are the ingredients that make a great donut and they’re all here in spades. A classic: 5 out of 5 sprinkled donuts.

Volkswagen Andretti Rallycross ‘Donut School’

VARX put out this video only a few weeks ago to celebrate the start of the Red Bull GRC season. Since then, VARX has had a lot to celebrate and this week they’ll back out on the racetrack in Dallas. So until then, enjoy these tasty donuts: 4 out of 5 square donuts

How to do DONUT DRIFT – Indian [Volkswagen polo]

Volkswagens these days tend to be front wheel drive, so donuts don’t come naturally. Where others might just give up on the whole idea, though, this enterprising young hero found a way. For his tenacity and resourcefulness, we give him 5 out of 5 homemade donuts that taste a little funny, but were made with love.

Drifting in a VW Beetle

Stereotypes would lead you to believe that a Beetle doesn’t make enough power to do a donut, and this lowered and shiny Beetle looks a little too nice to be doing anything as harsh as a donut. Thankfully, both assumptions are proven very wrong and we get this great and unexpected donut: 4 out of 5 Bacon Maple donuts.

VW Polo Pinata

Another video based on a Volkswagen Motorsport car. This time, we see Jari-Matti Latvala crushing Pinatas with his Polo WRC and just saying that sends a frisson of excitement down my spine. 5 out of 5 bunuelos

2018 Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster Review

“Supercars just don’t excite me anymore.” These words, spoken to me over a month ago by another journalist, friend, and (so-called) enthusiast were echoing in my head for far too long, but they’ve finally been drowned out. Drowned out by the wail of a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the new Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster. My friend’s point is that back in the good old days, there was a crop of supercars that captured the imagination with amazing style, sounds, performance, and more. Today, it seems like everything is capable of supercar performance, with large luxury sedans outdoing some of the best and most dedicated teams of car nuts, while former pillars of automotive excellence are suddenly pumping out family-friendly SUVs. Beyond that, another league of supercars, dubbed hypercars have cropped up with hybrid gas-electric powertrains that make magical things happen quickly, but at the cost of the acoustic drama, visual flair, and engag...

Project SportWagen: Going Stage 2 with APR

When we last left you, the humble little SportWagen was fresh from the development process with our friends at AWE Tuning, sporting a new downpipe, exhaust and intake, allowing things to breathe a bit easier. The car sounded great, but there was no getting around the fact that our wagon was still quite, well, slow. While we realize that nothing we do to the Golf SportWagen at this point will make it a race car, we still felt compelled to do something . To put it bluntly, we had a fever, and the only cure was more power. Flash forward a few hours, and we found ourselves at Waterfest, staring down APR’s palatial spread and the numerous tuned vehicles surrounding it. Earlier in the year, APR had hinted to us that their 1.8 TSI files would be quite impressive, and based on what they were able to do with the 2.0 TSI found in the new GTI and our time in their Golf R, we knew it’d be worth the wait. So with this in mind, we lined our G...

Project Golf SportWagen- Intro

I’ve never really been one for SUVs and crossovers. The current offerings aren’t the body-on-frame, go-anywhere specialty tools I remember from my youth, and what they lack in capability, they also lack in on-road performance. The current crop isn’t terribly good at handling or being efficient, which in my opinion are major components of our ideal driving experience. So when it comes to space or utility, I usually look for something of the wagon variety- and it seems that I’m not alone. We hit quite a few shows around the east coast each summer, and we see modified Jetta SportWagens at nearly every event. Even amongst common consumers, these cars are highly sought-after. They don’t depreciate much, making even early Mk 5 2.5 versions expensive in comparison to other Jettas or Golfs of the same vintage. This year, Volkswagen launched their latest SportWagen, which is now billed as a Golf. In many ways, this latest SportWagen is the best yet and it has certai...
