Friends don’t let friends buy a Volkswagen product. Please don’t.

Cars have come a long way in the last 20 years. There really aren’t many if any low quality cars for sale in the US any more.
Shoot, the worst of the cars now for sale score about as good as the best cars 20-30 years ago.
I have seriously considered VWs a few times but never pulled the trigger. Always found something that fit my personality better, but I certainly see how they appeal to other people.
My grandparents were big VW fans, owned a few beetles. My favorite was an early 60s black bug with a grey interior and grey cloth sunroof. My dad wanted to buy a Karmann Ghia but I talked him out of it and into a Sunbeam Alpine instead. Bet that ended up costing him more money while he owned it, but to me it was way more fun.[/quote]

we are moving toward a strange unsettling authoritarianism.
