Before you hit the finish line, your wheel bearings will blow out. I'd say, concede.

Faster? In what sort of contest? Stoplight to stoplight(stop right there unless you want to deal with the mods)? Reno to Vegas? Drag strip? Old R&T specs show the IS300 at 7.0sec 0-60 and 15.4sec 1/4mi. Unable to find Passat w/1.8T but new Beetle with same motor would not be as quick, in a lighter car. at 7.6 sec 0-60 and 15.8 1/4mi. Can be chipped to go like mad though.
These specs from 2005 issue, comparing to a car 9 yrs older. Remember the SVX is not a "dragster", or a true "sports car", but in it's element has few peers for under $40K. Glenn

the SVX is not a dragster, but will cruise highways comfortably, as it was designed.
