Me? Yes, if the product is superior. I understand what you are saying but we have seen carefully crafted but hollow "image" defeated by better product too many times. Product eventually controls image. With its recent products, VW - and some other foreign brands - has already proven that small doesn't have to mean cheap.

While others have proven essentially the opposite. Look at Cadillac and Lincoln. And who outside the UAW refers to Hondas or Toyotas as "rice burners" anymore? Sure, Acuras and Lexi are marketed as Hondas and Toyotas everywhere else, but I think even people here who vote Dem know what they are.

VW has successfully moved way upscale in Europe and in the US is coming up fast.

Sure, this is part of their strategy search.yahoo.com

And remember, even the lowly Volvo was just another economy car that didn't run very well. Now it's just another Ford for people who just don't know any better.
