Read today of vw unveiling the SUV hybrid concept car, built on the NB
platform. Very cool looking little machine, it would complement a syncro
quite nicely sitting in your driveway.
Name: Dune
Specs:
-vw's 4motion all-wheel drive
-Variable ride height suspension(120mm)
-vw's new V5 engine(yes a VEE-5 ), 148hp
-235/60r18 radials
-large aluminum bumper/underside guards
Anyone who has ever trail driven in an old baja will appreciate what vw is
doing here. This car is would be a blast. Downside is while it's fun
trashing a $1000 baja it would be painful to even scratch a $30,000 NB.
