200 mph, W12, fine looking interior are all enticing but I'm still not convinced.

And the joy of arriving at the dealer with three tons going 200mph with the Vdub brakes. How many airbags are in it?

I guess it gives you a chance to check out the Golf and Jetta.
Imagine turning in your Pheaton for service and getting a Bug for a loaner. Too cute!
VW Puts $94,600 Price on Top-Line Phaeton
Jan 15, 8:52 am ET
DETROIT (Reuters) - Volkswagen, the company long synonymous with the inexpensive Beetle, on Wednesday put a $94,600 price tag on ultra-luxury versions of its Phaeton sedan in the United States -- making it the highest-priced VW ever.
Europe's largest carmaker began selling a 335-horsepower V8 version of the Phaeton last November at a price of $64,600.
The 420-horsepower, 12-cylinder model, which VW touts as "the ultimate flagship of the Volkswagen brand," has only recently become available to U.S. car buyers.
At a base price of nearly $95,000, the Phaeton W12 is the most expensive VW ever, Volkswagen's U.S. subsidiary acknowledged in a press release.
Even so, it added, the model was also "the most affordable 12-cylinder vehicle on sale in the U.S. market." Its closest competitors include the BMW 760Li, which starts at about $116,000, and the Mercedes S600, priced from $122,000.

Volkswagon means "people's car". Paying $95K for a car is possible for very few people.
