I saw this article last week. I always hate articles about VW vans where the depth of the author's expertise is that someone in the family had one once. I wonder what other branch of automotive journalism would accept that as a qualification to write an article about a car? You'd think the very fact that ANY non-luxury car would sell for that much money EVER would justify a really thorough examination as to why.
