I wouldnt buy the VW supercar as long as they maintain making soft and confortable cars with AWD such as the Murcielago, the Gallardo or the Continental GT...im sorry but my point of view resembles a lot with the Tiff Needells and its quite different from Jeremy Clarksons

Like somebody stated, the problem lies with the VW brand name...
VOLKWAGEN = people's car in german
take note of the word "people"
which would connotate the word "masses"
or the "public"
NOT
the "elite".
Dr. Piech's problem is very simple... his problem is that he's stupid for not being aware of what VW actually means. That is why VW will NEVER be able to justify a high price tag for any of its cars.

The Nardo/W12 was ready to go in production. But at the time it was ready (2002) the world economy collapsed and Piech left his position. This project was one of the prestige-projects which were cancelled by Pischetsrieder (Piechs continuator). At that time the new developing Golf was already too expensive, so was the Polo, the Phaeton was just launched and doing bad. Pischetsrieder wanted VW to make VOLKSwagens again and no predating between the VAG-brands anymore. So the Nardo was cancelled at the last moment...
