One rare VW...

Only 250 produced, this VW Beetle RSI came to our shop.
Although I usually do not take pictures from other side of our shop(the paint booth and restorations) due to many reasons, it was worth one minute walk to take pictures of this unique car.

Let me know if you want any detail pictures of the specific area.

They actually built quite a few of those W8 Passats. I found a W8 Passat Wagon with a 6 spd manual on eBay not too long ago that I thought about as a great DD...

that's a cool car. Another "rare" one is the Phaeton W12. There are a few 8cyl versions roaming around my neighborhood surprisingly, but I haven't seen a 12cyl in a while.

I had one of those before, awesome ride. But mine wasnt a V6, all wheel drive.

They built the Rsi V6 for the European market and for the GCC they built the Cup Edition.
