I have seen those before.

The news are that VW's coupe will be based on the same platform with the upcoming Audi A4 and A5.

The first post's pictures are pretty good, but they really need to do something with the front. The chrome thingy is really pushing things far too much. It doesn't even look really nice to begin with.

Speaking of which... I do hope they do not incoporate the new VW corporate grill into a facelift for the Phaeton (if there is one).

Another "Truth in Marketing" Blunder

Mercedes dropped its "coupe" last year, now VW is getting into the action. The 2007 Passat Coupe will compete directly with the Mercedes CLS in the "lets just make up a product segment" market. The 5 door "coupe" will use existing VW architecture and engines, will be "substantially cheaper" than the $65,000 CLS and will fall in between the Passat and the Phateon in the VW model line.

The new Passat "coupe" looks pretty sexy, and I wish that the bold front end could be used for the new Passat four door or the Jetta. However, VW would be better off if they offered a true two door in their lineup instead of making a clone of a car that they already sell. Does anyone at VW know what they're doing?

Damn, that is one sexy car indeed! Blows the CLS in terms of profile and design. Nice!
Any news if VW have given the green-light to a 4-door Coupe yet ?

There was already a thread with the same title so i merged the two threads into one.
Thank you.

I haven't heard that VW was going to do a concept version of the Minivan before showing the production version but anything is possible.
