Perhaps that once was a VW idea (initially for new Phaeton, I guess)- but again they "stole" the design elements to implement them on Audi car - that homogeneous L-shaped LED daytime driving light is now featured on new A8, and earlier on A5 (yet not as homogeneous unit) ... as it is the hexagonal single frame grille first presented on VW Iroc Concept. So, I guess it's hard to design a VW when all good ideas are taken away & given to Audi.  Last edited by EnI; 10-06-2009 at 09:49 AM. Reason: repairing img link | |

Actually that sketch appeared as a design suggestion for new VW US-specific model: a car larger than Passat. Something between Passat & Phaeton. But the point is the same: any fresh more progressive idea by VW designer ends up on Audi cars. It looks like De Silva cars more for Audi than for VW. | |

| I know only one thing. They better improve the lower dash and central console material on the next generation Golf. Here the base Golf costs the same as a 116i!
