Wörthersee 2015: Day 6 Gallery Now Live

[photos: Si Gray]

Si Gray remains a busy man on the streets around Lake Wörthersee, knocking out no less than four feature car photoshoots in addition to covering the action in Faak and at the world’s most famous Eni station.  As a result, today’s addition to our Wörthersee coverage is a bit light on quantity, but as you’d expect, quality remains at a level that we simply don’t see in the states.

Si has reported that construction has begun on the spectacle that is Wörthersee Treffen, as detailing stands are beginning to go up and the overall mood has begun to change.  Outbound traffic has all but seised, and Si says that those still in town won’t be leaving until the show is over.  Well, everyone except Si, that is.

He’ll be wrapping up his coverage on Friday, trading Wörthersee Treffen (or UrWo as we’ve been referring to it around the office) for Southern Worthersee (or SoWo as the kids are calling it) after a quick dash back to England to grab clean clothes.  Not usually ones to leave before the party starts, we’re sending our own Jamie Vondruska to take his place next week.

Review: Saying Goodbye to the CC V6

For all its size and its global reach, Volkswagen is still, in many ways, a deeply human company. There was, for instance, the Bugatti Veyron an ego project if ever there was one. Then the purchase of Ducati, a move most called folly. And then there was the Phaeton, the Volkswagen that most folks can’t afford. Not only were these moves all strange, I’m sure that they made VW’s accountants furious. None of them made good business sense, but they were all deeply interesting and they all are evidence of the heart that beats at the center of VW. Among these follies is the CC, a car that everyone agrees is rakishly handsome, but that no one really wanted to buy. The car couldn’t last, but the world is brighter for its having been in it. With the approach debut of the Arteon, it seems like a good time to look back on its sadly departing predecessor. The version I drove, because I live in Canada, is a V6 Wolfsburg Edition, which apparently isn’t available in the States. Nor is the V6, not as...

More 3.0-Liter TDI Settlement Details Expected by January 31

Volkswagen and the TDI Plaintiff’s Steering Committee were in court today for another status conference following the agreement in principal reached earlier this week. Little new information was given at the conference held before Judge Charles Breyer today, but the court ordered the parties to develop a formal settlement agreement, class action notices, and a class notice plan by January 31, 2017. For now, though, owners still don’t know how much to expect in compensation. Elizabeth Cabraser, lead Counsel for the Plaintiff’s Steering Committee reaffirmed in a statement today that the compensation would be “substantial.” The potential cost to Volkswagen is widely reported to exceed $1 billion, though, with an additional $225 million going into an environmental trust to help offset excess emissions. Buy back offers are still only expected for the oldest 20,000 of the roughly 80,000 VW Group vehicles sold in America with the 3.0-liter TDI engine. Those vehicles are mostly SUVs, like ...
