As much as I love looking at, ( watching, singing with etc.) the two guys I loved way back when, I'm curious... what's the type of car the guys drive around in "wipeout"?

Which one was Wipeout?

I remember the one where Joe is posing as a big time crook he was driving a Porsche and Frank was in a Trans Am.

It's a VW "Thing" (that was its actually name when sold in the US, I'm not making it up)

It seems like every time they go to Hawaii, they drive a VW Thing, for some strange reason!
