I really wish VW would make a flat 4 again, and stuff it in the rear. While I like the fact they are looking to go retro, I would still take a Vanagon with a Suby swap over this just based on usefullness.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) That's a great place to work from for some retro styling. Some tweaks to the greenhouse and body details would be all that's necessary to capture an iconic shape and functionality. But that's really what VW should have done in 1990.....sigh.
