Well the grill reminds me of a Ford F-350, the headlights look like a Caddy set-up, the side mirrors of the Ford Excursion, the hi-cube look of the Mercedes real-SUV, bottom-cladding of the Element and a bunch of other influences that don't seem to complement each other very well...

So apparently its not just VW...they've teamed up with a bunch of others to make it. As my boyfriend told me earlier, its designed and built by Sprinter, Mercedes, Chrysler, and Crafter...hence why it looks like a bunch of those together!

I'd rock it! Throw a pop-top on it and a Westy kitchen in there for good measure! Hell yeah!

Looks like it should have tiger striped shag carpet and a water bed in the back, with a bitchin' Hi-Fi...
