Good luck with it VW....
I've got a feeling that with a $35K MSRP its gonna flop though.
The Solstice GXP is a much better value at 26K, with REAR wheel drive, only 10hp less, but a weight of 2900lbs as compared the Eos' 3700lbs(!!!!)
And since the Solstice is turbo'd, upgrading the HP shouldn't be too hard
