Jeremy, I'm not Mr. Marketplace, but I don't think VW is in anywhere near as much trouble as GM or Ford. Their hold on the European market is pretty strong, and they don't overbuild stock usually they build what they think they will sell. I think they are trying to promote the GTI Cup, wich is an effort to sell GTI's. Of course it's marketing, it's nice to see the marketing efforts back on the race track again!
