Hah, well, I guess I'm old enough to remember when VWs were reliable economy cars. What actually puzzled me was why they went up-market when Audi was already there. The Phaeton, is the worst example of that marketing decision, probably would've sold OK as an Audi, hmmmm , I guess they would have called it an Audi 9. LOL
As far as CR is concerned, I would have never bought a SAAB if I believed the drivel that they publish ... I drove Mazdas, Toyotas, and Hondas before I bought my first SAAB, a1987 900S. It was at lest as reliable (if not more so) as my Japanese cars and I averaged about 5 mpg better mileage than what CR reported.
