I would have said the same with regards to Audi 18 or so years back...mr
peich has proven to me that he is capable of driving these types of proposals
what with the 911 racing efforts and the quattro racing efforts he had a

either that VW can gain the public upmarket respect that mbz has. Then
again...if toyota (lexus) can do it, why not vw??? This will be interesting
to watch unfold.
