What a nice, dare I say, unique perspective.

Well said (written). I think, and I'm just guessing here, that the OP got used to the rather peaky engine response of the VW, and the smooth linear feel of the BMW makes him think that it's not as powerful a feeling.

We are.


OP, you want to feel some torque? Take the car onto a race track, go 125 in 4th and upshift to 5th. Even with the incredible amount of wind resistance and all of the other forces against the car, it will still push you against the seat.
