Fast pictures
After my previous post I realized that I forgot to include pictures of the 'fast', which is (arguably) one of the best features of the GTI.
Volkswagen ads claim "A 'fast' comes standard on every GTI," so when I got the car I was expecting the fast to come inside of it. Needless to say, I was disappointed to learn that I would get it in the mail in "4 to 6 weeks". Luckily I got mine a bit 'fast'er than that. Here is a picture:
It's made of very shiny plastic, which seems to be different from the more matte-looking material used in the TV ads. Its arms and legs rotate and it has a set of interchangeable tails:
Overall it's pretty cool. Every car should come with tiny plastic representation of its Freudian id. 🙂

I want one! Does it speak? If not, buy a voice recorder IC and make it speak. 😉

Unfortunately it doesn’t speak.. If I can find a little voice IC and a speaker, maybe I’ll try that 😉

I have a cool one from Radioshack, but I don’t think they sell them any more. You can record multiple phrases on it and select between them via a parallel interface. I’ll send you the number on the IC when I get home. I’d love to see this!
