88 corolla FX sohc auto.
Owned quite a few diesel VWs...the last one was a non-turbo 1.6 '91 Jetta. I had this '81 diesel before that...
Slowest was a 1980ish Mercedes 240D with a four-speed. I test drove it when I had veggie oil/biodiesel dreams, and the owner said, "When the light changes, just keep it floored when you row through the gears."
Yeah, it was a neat little car. I paid $250 bucks for it. The previous owner was using it as a commuter and it died on the freeway. He couldn't restart it, and assumed it was toast. My buddy and I put some diesel in it, pull-started it, and it fired right up. I actually pulled the ugly US-spec headlights out and put Euro headlights in.

The slowest for me was a 1934 Migdalane , 2 cylinder carburated nightmare , hell shopping carts could go faster than that .
I'd have to go with my first car. 89 Toyota Tercel 4spd. GREAT car. Never gave me any problems.
That 81 Jetta diesel is beautiful.

Slowest I've owned 58 VW, maybe 28 hp on a good day. Slowest driven 39 Ford farm truck, speedo stopped at 55 or 60 if memory serves, straight gear crash box, super skills needed for downshifting.
