Re: [T3] Is this considered a Type 3?


If VW were so proud of this model (as the seller claims), then why did they
only sell it in Brazil?

Maybe they didn't think that "Looks like a Ferrari, drives like a Beetle"
was a particularly attractive advertising slogan.

I think it is probably the most gorgeous-looking car that VW ever produced,
but I think that actually driving one might be a bit of a let-down.
