Replying to: emauss (Nov 12, 2005 4:52 am) The CNN screen grab is a spoof off the VWVortex Phaeton Forum. Unfortunately, it is also true.
#353 of 447 ?? Came True?? by emauss Nov 12, 2005 (6:31 am)
I still can't find any real reference to VW cancelling the Phaeton. One the other hand, I have found numerous relatively current articles talking of bringing the TDI into the US.   Please elaborate.....   ...BTW, I drove a Phaeton last weekend from NYC to Baltimore and *loved* it.   ..can't wait for my A8L to arrive!!!!!!!!   (e)

Replying to: paldi (Nov 12, 2005 9:56 am) I can't say I'm surprised. Though I don't want to see the car go, I think it is the right thing for VWOA to do. They fully need to concentrate on VW's more traditional cars.   M

another Bentley makes an appearance. Really just a Phaeton in disguise.

Replying to: merc1 (May 15, 2005 8:18 pm) One of my friends just bought one and took my wife and I for a ride, and it is the most sensational and exotic large sedan I have ever ridden in. She has black over amaretto, and it is just gorgeous, with the black piping and well-colored wood. Any time I see the car on the street, I just smile. This is a lead-footed woman, maybe even as much as me, and she really pushes the car. She had hers with a $100K+ sticker, in fact $100,000 plus 20% of $100,000.   EF Replies to this message: merc1 (Nov 21, 2005 5:49 am) blckislandguy (Nov 25, 2005 5:35 pm) merc1 (Nov 26, 2005 11:30 am) and 10 more...

Replying to: esf (Nov 20, 2005 6:37 pm) I had to go back and see what you were replying too. Ahh...Maserati Quattroporte. A fine car indeed. We should see a V12 version sometime next year. What I like most about Masers is that there are so many leather/wood combinations to choose from. You specify the colors of the dash top, seatbelts and just about anything else you can think of. It has characters and uniqueness all over the Germans.   M Replies to this message: blckislandguy (Nov 25, 2005 5:35 pm) merc1 (Nov 26, 2005 11:30 am) blckislandguy (Nov 26, 2005 8:36 pm) and 9 more...
