I got one, anyone want it?
So I picked up one of the Phaetons because the deals were so good. Must admit it is a pig- comforable but boring. I have a friend who wants to take over my lease so I am picking up an E55 at the factory in 2 weeks.

Phaeton
My friend wants my Phaeton because he has become old and boring. I, on the other hand, am still young and exciting, and will drive the E55.
I must admit that the lease deal on the Phaeton was very attractive, very nearly half of the E55. Oh well, the price of excitement.

In all things business, when does a vendor with a longstanding track record (Volkwagen) sell something great at a huge discount?
Phaeton is doomed for the "we shoulda known better" columnn in the engineering/design files at VW, watch and see.
I admire VW's boldness, but under the VW name, a $90,000 car like Phaeton will not catch on. Pity the people who buy them outright and take a bath of historic proportions on depreciation.
