Have you seen all the hilerious Mr. Fast commercials on You Tube?

Also, those VW "unpimp my ride" adverts are off the hook!

Post by: illyun on 14 December 2007, 03:04: I've seen some of them.. they are funny. When I had my manual GTI, at night I used to look at the reflection of the red lights on the gearknob - they used to look like the eyes of fast.. two red glowing eyes. Can't do that with DSG :cry:
