Anyone see this thing in person at the LA or Detroit Autoshow? Just wondering who would buy this thing...? http://autoblog.com/2006/01/04/vw-gx3-official-pics-specs-and-press-release/ Image Unavailable, Please Login
Probably the same sort of person who posts in a Ferrari forum that exact same question............... Most decidedly OFF TOPIC
I saw it at the LA show and I think it is awesome. The perfect solution for someone wanting something like a motorcycle without many of the safety compromises. If you think about it, the GX3 really has no competition at it's price target of ~$17,000. The T-Rex is around $40,000 and an Ariel Atom is another $10,000 on top of that. Those are really the only things that can be directly compared in my opinion. BTW: It's come out recently that Lotus Cars helped them with the development of the concept and they had help on the chassis from Swift Engineering. Impressive names and it lends a bit of credibility to just how serious VW may be to bring this thing to market. I really hope VW builds this thing. >8^) ER
