Club president Taylor Mar tin presided over the event 'Put-a*Volkswpgeivfaslback in a race with the rest oMhe fastbacks around today and it would lose hands down. Even at top speed it wouldn't stand a chance •egainst a 350 h.p. job. (Our fastback cruises at .about 84.) Today a lot of people spend a lot of money on a cor because it's big and fast. But the strange thing is, when they buy a car •with so much speed and power, they seldom stop ^•o think where they’ll be able to use it. Do you need a 350 h.p. engine to take you downtown? Or for a ride in the country? y Or for that once-a-year vacation trip? (Even f©n the highway you can’t use a hundred-mile-an- hour car. Remember, the fastest you can go on •lost highways is only 70.) This is exactly why we made the VW Fastback (#»e way we did. Its 65 horsepower engine gets you cut on the thruwoy quickly. And with that many horses in a Volkswagen, there's plenty of power for highway passing. Our fastback has its engine in the rear and it’s air-cooled. (That means no water or anti freeze.) And since it doesn't have a lot of idle horses to feed, you'll still be able to get up to, 27 miles on a gallon of gas. You can buy a sensible fastback like this for the •ensible price of $2,179.* .And never miss the power you didn’t pay for.
