Mine is an '07. It has only 60k miles and it runs well. It's stock.
Recently, I was about to get on a freeway onramp (in CA) and a Tesla was behind me. I thought he might want to play so I kept the car in second (6sp) as I entered the ramp. I wanted to keep the revs up.
The Tesla swung around me into the far lane and went for it. I was ready. I held him off through second, third and part of fourth before entering the freeway. He didn't gain at all, which was surprising. Aren't those cars supposed to be fast? Well, I guess the ol' VW is pretty quick from a roll, even stock.
The Tesla driver probably wasn't too happy with the result because as I entered the freeway and slowed, he stayed on the far right and kept going, fast.
