Actually VWs reliability has improved tremendously in the past few years. I know a few people with the new GTI and the car is incredible.

Yes it's based on two VR6 engines (a shape of V, but so narrow that you can still think it's a R6 - has greater balance thanks to that), put together in a shape of W. You can find this 6.0 litre engine on cars like VW Phaeton or better yet Bentley Continental GT. There is a bigger brother of it - the mighty 1001 HP W16 that you can find on Bugatti Veyron. Shweet.
