Default New VW

Everyday behind where i work i see a big group of Volkswagen "Phaeton" meeting up. How long have these been out and what are the Stats on them? The front looks pretty cool but it is really long and the back is plain.

you want pics of the mules?

They are housed @ the warehouse that is on Linebaugh about 1/2 a mile east of anderson road...right next to the high school. The facility is set back a little bit, and never has cars out front. It's just east of the RR tracks. Go sit in the bleachers across the street and watch all the "Unofficial" Audi's and VW's roll in and out.

Want more info?
