Have you guys seen this? I saw one on the road about 3 weeks ago, i thought it was some weird imported VW, it was all covered with salt and dirt. Its a nice looking car from VW, something a little different than the generic boxes they've been putting out. Plus it has an awesome name, sounds StarTrekish

dude, the name "phaeton" has been around a lot longer than Star Trek.....it's actually a tip o' the hat to the early "golden age" of the automobile in fact...

VW's is a cool enough car, but upscale...they're tryin' to take on Merc...

W12 engine's pretty cool tho'!...

 

yea same here i saw that car and was like wtf?!?! but i heard about it but never thought i would be seeing it here..

 

The new Phaeton is soooo expensive, the v10 starts at 60,000, and the v12 starts at 83,000. My goodness, thats a bit much to pay for a VW.

 

it doesnt even look good to me kind of ugly

 

I saw a silver W12 Phaeton in Niagara Falls (Canadian Side) with manufacture plates on it around the end of November. It looks nice but I can't see myself putting down close if not over $80K for a VW.
