That’s the thing people tend to forget. Just like 5-7 years ago, people wouldn’t buy a Hyundai or a VW. A lot can change. My wife and I just got a new VW, because they’ve made a marked improvement over their prior versions.

I like VW, I’m an Audi owner, but having this Touareg at $60k and a Jetta at $15k makes me scratch my head.
