Most folks will be scared of by the words “used” and “Volkswagen” being used in such close proximity. VW still has a reputation to live down and dieselgate did not help at all.

Agreed. Sensationalist nonsense premise to this article. Why don’t we require ALL vehicles to have this? Isn’t it EVEN LESS SAFE if your car DOESN’T have autopilot to take hands/eyes off the wheel? Shouldn’t even automaker be shamed for this oversight? We need the government to step in and save us from ourselves…

When people are talking about unreliability, they aren’t talking about the infant ranges of 10,000-25,000. They are talking about 75,000+. The VW’s are beautiful, but I have zero desire to discover how much out of pocket spend I’ll have when I’m riding into the 100k+ mileage territory.

Leave Elon alone!

An R wagon would have been so sweet.

Right car

If infallibility conveys onto the vehicle then this was a hell (sorry! Heck) of a deal. 

Martin Luther probably would’ve kept his mouth shut if all indulgences came with 600 hp and a 2.3 second 0-60 time.

What a blessed event.

But would the pope sign the Diablo?

And it’ll be nearly the same as the $20 VW part, but the VW part comes in glacial grey where as the Audi part comes in Arctic grey so the VW part would be just off enough to drive you crazy. Clever VAG bastards.

That’ll be $225.69 please for the factory replacement.

When it first starts to happen and it just tickles the top of your head like a bug is crawling in your hair.

Bean counters identified $0.000022/car cost savings.

More stars for this. Yeah - I NEVER go anywhere near Market St. in my car unless I have no choice otherwise. Our Board of Stupidvisors loves to talk “transit first”, punish drivers, and do nothing to improve transit. Rinse, lather, repeat.

Why do you want a car so tall that you have to rappel yourself into the cab like Batman every time you have to pick up some groceries? you will have such a high center of gravity in an emergency avoidance situation that you are GUARANTEED to roll at the slightest attempt at turning?

Red turn signals... When you drive next to a car that has them, you spend a couple of seconds trying to guess if they’re tapping on their brakes or trying to get over.

Flat-bottomed steering wheels, as part of the fakery trend. Flat-bottomed steering wheels were originally designed for the cramped confines of a race car’s cockpit. Not a problem in the GTI “but it looks so coool...”

Donks!

Fake vents. Fake exhausts. Fake noises. Farting between shifts. Fake pops and bangs. Those stupid indicators that Audi brought to us because reasons.
