they should have also gradually brought back cars from their heritage like the Ghia (2 seater roadster), Squareback (stationwagon), fastback or the Notchback (coupe), Thing (SUV), and the 21 window bus (minivan)...a full updated lineup that pays homage to their retro past. imo that would have been a killer collection of cars. but instead they put out garbage like the Toureg...!


At least they are bringing back the Scirocco... sort of.

P.s. seen the new Mini yet? And the anticipated wagon version?

The Karmann Ghia would indeed be very interesting if revived, especially if they did a Type 34 as well as a regular line.

Yea I think so. The "new" Mini will be for the '08 model, longer wheelbase and snout. personally I like the current version aesthetically better altho it sounds like the '08 will be superior mechanically. and I saw the prototype for the "wagon" which i really didnt like. I like the go-cart nature of the current Mini's, and don't see the need to turn it into another subcompact a la Civic/Focus
