Of course these are VW diehards. Let us see which car will still be on the roads in 5-10 years.

The interior is beautiful and the drive is amazing. I would check that out first.

I saw the Phaeton for the first time in the Vancouver Autoshow last Sunday & while it's interior is very nice & well finished, the exterior, while nice enough, does not look like it's such an expensive car. I'll take an Audi A8L over it in a second.

Just read page 17 of April Consumer Reports on "How the makes stack up over time", VW has more problems than average model in new vehicles, three-year-old, and last in five-year-old vehicles. LS430 is my pick.
