Niether, sure the T-Rex looks better but they are impossible to see. I was driving in my car which is lowered and i only heard it go by me. I had no idea it was there, and i didnt see the damn thing until it was 30ft ahead of me.

..the VW looks slicker, but i'd definetly go with the t-rex not only because its a better...trike?....overall, but because its outta Quebec Canada...where i need to go this year to get a supercharger...maybe i'll take one for a spin while im there

Oh, and the T-Rex. Though this does look good, I prefer the Rex.
Peugeot also has a concept trike. Check it out ( http://www.popsci.com/popsci/whatsnew/f77a32d70ed08010vgnvcm1000004eecbccdrcrd.html)

Everybody wants the TRex because it's stats are better. But this looks so much better and you could almost three of them for the money you had to spend on one T-Rex. So, you would buy this one, wouldn't you?

i'd take the VW. t-rex sounds like it's better but how much of an after market is out there for it. VW has a big performance following, and thats just for drivetrains not full cars. anyone else getting my point?

Gotta say that the T-Rex is a beauty and far more attractive than the GX3.
But then, the T-Rex is boutique toy that costs four times as much as the factory-build VW! At 17K ameribucks,how can you even compare these two machines? It's like some boob in a Ferrari pulling up to a traffic light next to a kid in a Geo Meto and revving his motor like he wants to race. Pathetic!
Performance-wise, they are somewhat similar (maybe the T-Rex has a slight edge), but when you come right down to it, they are remarkably similar in go-juice and quarter times.
But they are also both fair-weather vehicles, at least in the initial configuration.
As a long-time motorcyclist, let me tell you that there are few things quite as infuriating as sitting in a traffic jam on (or in) your really cool machine, getting soaked to the skin through your supposedly "waterproof" raingear, while some slob in his dented grocery-getter mommypod just in front of you sips his frappucino and listens to Vivaldi with the heat on.
Also, I have no problem wearing a helmet (since both these vehicles are classed as motorcycles and Georgia is a helmet state),personally. But anyone who has ever caught a rock or a large bug in the face at 75 mph can tell you that it is no fun at all, and a helmet with a face shield is a little much for an enclosed vehicle. As low as both these vehicles sit, they need windscreens desperately to fend off the odd bit of gravel or cicaeda. BTW, I know that the T-Rex offers an optional windscreen. I hope the GX3 follows suit.
I have contacted my local (Savannah, GA)VW dealer about the GX3, and I told them that I was interested, with the caveat that it needs a windscreen and a minimal roof of some kind. Otherwise, I'll have to stick with my Mercedes.
The wicked flee where none pursueth.
