<< Oh my gawd!! I'm such a huge VW fan and I hate the back end on this thing. It looks sort of like the front end of some late 70's Ford LTD with red covers over the headlights. Also, as much as I like VW, the whole concept seems silly. Volkswagon is a people car or car for the masses and the masses certainly won't be driving this one. Besides, the VW logo just doesn't look right on the body of this car. I agree totally that this should have been an Audi. The Auto Union rings would've looked cool on the body of this car.
What I would love to see is a road going version of the Le Mans series Audi R8. That is just a drop dead gorgeous car IMO. I'd love to see them offer something like a cross between the R8 and the roadgoing McLaren F1 with the Audi badging. That would be a Supercar...
Anyway..

While I also disagree with VW's future game plans, this car is inline with their goals. So badging it as a VW was the right choice.
Also, this is in the Netherlands, so don't expect to be seeing this car at your local dealer.
