A Toledo is basically a Passat, they're quality motors
The VR5 is definitely the quickest Beetle but they do become a money pit. Don't think they even make them any more cos they were so unreliable.

If you want a Golf I'd go for a GT TDI, they're good fun for a small car :D

Edit: @ K2, I've never liked that 2.0 petrol block, in a Passat or an A4 or any of the VWAG cars it's been used in, does feel very sluggish. The fastest Beetle is a toss up between the 1.8T and the V5, I reckon the V5 probably has the edge unmodded, but I wouldn't have one for reasons stated above.
