Sounds like a great idea, I hope they build it.

Anyone else excited about this as a possible new ride?

That thing is cool!

And it would give you an excuse to wear a helmet while driving on public roads!!!!! (Three wheel vehicles are classified as motorcycles.)

Come on, it is always a good idea to but money into fantasy vehicles when you have lost 12.5% of your sales in one year and preliniary estimates report that your brand managed to sell only 112 cars more than Mercedes-Benz.

Of course, VW did put into production the Phaeton and the Touareg, so perhaps this thing looks like a good idea to someone too.

No need to wait for VW to build it. You can already buy something similar made in Quebec.
