Like many of the Audis and VWs that came out between 2010 and 2014 I think this will age very well. For example, the pre-angular-facelift A7 and A8 as well as the Mk7 Golf (GTI especially) all have surprisingly clean designs.

/shakes fist at VW
I know people think VW has boring design language, but I love how clean this is. Looks.. fun.
It’s got its own part number at Volkswagen:
The “plus” button on vtech cars (the only cars with this function) actually increases the vtech, resulting in more revs as the vtech velocitates higher, resulting in the horsepowers and torques synergizing together, multiplicating speed and efficiency.
Audi R8. Still looks good now as it did in 2007 when it came out.
OR
The Lotus Esprit of course. The white one from The Spy Who Loved me doubled as a freakin’ submarine, whereas the one in For Your Eyes Only was “just” a car.
That was awesome. I still have my 2’x3’ Beetle Cup poster given to me by a dealer from my Dub days. Out of all the vintage Porsche ads and everything else I have hanging that one still gets a lot of attention...
+1, The amount of power those stupid things will make with a “just throw more boost at it” tuning mantra defies belief. 600whp from a VR6 2.8 12 valve with totally stock internals is no big deal. Even more staggering is the fact that all of the manual gearboxes you’ll find attached to them from the factory (both 5 and…
Man, I miss my VR6. Here’s some interesting shit you may not know about the VR6. Of course, if you’re in to VWs at all, you know this, but... Just shut up. Shut up and listen!
Michael Schumacher.
Hmm.. let’s see..
Much worse in person than in that pic. Thank you. All GTs must be killed with fire before they’re accepted as normal.
But can it bypass the #1 theft deterrent?
I ride year round, commute daily, and ride canyons. I love motorcycles. I also hate idiots who run straight pipes, no mufflers, or delete their catalytic converters. The sound isn’t nicer, just louder and obnoxious. It give serious motorcyclist a bad rap we don’t deserve. It is a clear sign that the rider is a selfish…
Everytime I hear an obnoxiously loud Harley drive by I involuntarily hear “FAAAAAAAG!” in my head. Thanks South Park!
I drove one that a client of mine bought a few weeks ago, and it was great, precisely because it’s a Golf. It just happens to be electric. I would happily have one as a commuter, and with the rebates available in CA, they’re reasonably affordable.
So hard to follow, they just gave up being a car company.
With the years long saga of mismanagement, incompetence, and bankruptcy, fans of the Nürburgring were hoping that…
