mystique is in the shop and parents are on vacation so i get mom's turbo beetle for 2 weeks :p . it has no pedal or shifter feel when compared to a contique, you can't hear the exhaust, and it bounces up and down a lot. about the only things it has going for it over a contique is the turbo sound and that girls love it. it is basically a chick car. it doesnt like to go over 75, and when you find the switch to pop out the spoiler it likes to put it away again right away. just makes me want the mystique back, i guess. :rolleyes:
