| Honestly, why bother? I have nothing against the Phaeton, it's a very nice car, but even without a Passat grille it still will look like a Passat. And obviously, people don't want a VW at that price. It's a waste of money to FL it imo.

| And it feels like a Passat on the inside too. Quality and luxury feel is quite an arm's lenght behind the A8, S-Class and 7-Series. So the car is in no-mans land really. Too expensive for a VW and a bit too lacking in quality to be a true alternative to a Mercedes or even an Audi. |
