Subject: [tcb] New VW Bus
Just received my new Autoweek; and here is a direct quote, at least the best I
can type it.
?
"VW MICROBUS LIVES AGAIN
Volkswagen is once again resurrecting the Microbus, this time as inspiration
for a lifestyle vehicle aimed at the North American market.
?
Volkswagen had planned to reintroduce a stylish re-creation of the original
Microbus in 2005, but the program was canceled because of spiraling costgs and
a weakening US dollar.? But now, VW management has renewed efforts to builod
the Microbus in some form.? One proposal is to base the car on the company's
front-wheel drive midsize sedan chasis that will be produced in Tennessee
starting in 2011."
