Hello-
The late Type 3 is a far superior car for high speed driving than a bug.... far better aerodynamics, better weight distribution, more rigid body, etc.
IMHO, the Achilles heel is the front suspension. Here's where the Super Beetle accels :-). When cruising at 125mph (200 km/h) on the back country roads where no police ever wander, I don't have any problems... unless the road isn't smooth. If it's a rough road (as many country roads are), bump steer will kill ya! And, as we all know, no amount of tuning can ever fully remove bump steer from the unequal tie rod, twin trailing arm suspension system.
I see a 928 that's itching to be converted over to a T3...
Take care,
