Hi Volks: CNBC just reported that VW has submitted an offer to purchase Rolls-Royce. The offer was in the vicinity of $660MM. Well, it looks like the People's Car is going to get EVEN MORE expensive, specialized, and complicated! The report opened by saying that VW has been wanting to enter the luxury auto market for some time now. Yeah, well what do you think would be more profitable: selling a few Silver Cloud versions of the new Passat or loading up North America with a bunch of EV Syncro Campers?! I THROW MY ARMS UP IN FRUSTRATION!
