why not ..
vanagon owners' money is not good enough to spend on a Phaeton ?

the bigger question is why would anyone want one ?
I'd bet VW will have to produce and sell 50,000 Phaeton's per year for 10
years to break even on what that factory cost to build and operate.

The fact that every single square inch is man-made and not trees or dirt or
anything natural ...I just couldn't stand it. Impressive though , can't deny
that.
