Saw the picture a week ago, but I loved your intro!  This thing looks like a
submarine from Johnny Quest (the 60s version).

Thanks,

Subject: Revised Bus Concept a GO!

We all know VW has been hard(ly) at work attempting to provide a worthy
successful successor, a modern reincarnation and embodiement of the
venerable vintage VW Microbus.  Well, the moment we've awaited with baited
bad breath has finally arrived.  Damen und Herren, hold on to your grass
skirts as VW has finally done it!  Due for a release in 2005, this final
version incorporates all the design elements of the original with a modern
ergonomical twist.  It is compact, easy to park, stylish and an attention
getter!  Obviously influenced by the success of the BMW Mini Cooper, VW is
again thinking that smaller indeed IS better.  A veriety of engines will
power this modern marvel, from you favorite air-cooled 2-stroke Makita,
which should make all the air-cooled fanatics dance with no abandon (Can you
hear them doing backflips right now?) to the latest superconducting
anti-gravity drive.  Did I mention it's also a submersible?   Not only will
it float in the vein of the original Beetle, but also is a snap to parallel
park!  Those gosh-darned German engineers - will anything ever (s)top them?
