RE: speaking of new VW's

[16V Jason <jason@scirocco.org>]

I assume you all saw the CJ Concept?  CJ standing for Coupe Jetta?
It was a coupe design study of the current Jetta, and it was stunningly 
beautiful.
I'm sure I can dig up some photos if anyone would like to see it.  Now, 
while the Jetta Coupe ran alongside the Scirocco so a CJ wouldn't be a 
Scirocco, it was different enough from the Jetta 4-door that it's a true 
coupe (unlike the A2 Jetta 2-door, which is a 2-door sedan), and that would 
satisfy me in terms of a replacement.

I haven't heard a word about it since, though, so I doubt if VW has any 
plans to produce it... which is a shame.
