    Rumorpile: Volkswagen I.D. Buzz Concept Appears To Be Given The Go Ahead

      It seems Volkswagen could make a Microbus concept a reality

    Volkswagen has been teasing us for a number of years with Microbus concepts that never seem to go anywhere. The latest one is the I.D. Buzz that debuted earlier this month at the Detroit Auto Show. But an insider says this concept will go into production.

    Automotive News Europe spoke to a source at Volkswagen who said, "I know what you're going to ask and the answer is 2022. Diess wants it."

    The second sentence in that quote is important. Diess refers to Herbert Diess, the brand chief for Volkswagen. According ANE, Diess is a big fan of the I.D. Buzz concept in part as the original bus "is a feel-good throwback to the days when VW stood for flower power, not toxic pollutants."

    According to other sources, the production variant of the I.D Buzz will be very close to the concept, minus the retractable steering wheel.

    Whether it actually goes into production or not remains to be seen.

    • We chatted about Corvettes, here is a C3 that has a VERY wild ride in a drag race, driver saves it at the last second. Race is at the 35 minute mark, you see more of the car at the 40:45 mark. Extremely impressed with the fabrication and build quality of this thing.    Clapped out C4 is sent over a cliff in Alaska, you see the car at 1:13, see it go over a cliff at 39:45.   
    • Would love to travel and check out Banggai, that looks amazing. Vegas is dead, usually my yearly tradeshow has 20-30K attendees, this year barely over 6K. The place was dead and with Gestapo ICE everywhere, most are just old white boomers now it would seem based on my visit this year. They must think the Golden age of the Rat Pack is coming back or something. Costs are so crazy. Last year summer, Costco Butter was 5.99 for the 4lb package, by Xmas it was $9.99 and now it is $12.99. Due to Tariffs, the better butter Kerigold from Ireland that was $8.99 last summer and I bought a ton of it at Xmas for cooking and entertaining and froze a bunch so I would have it due what I felt was a crazy increase in price is now $17.99 with tariff at Costco for the 3lb package. Costs are crazy high and it is amazing the idiots that are delusional about it in supporting Idiot47.
    • Lot of folks also gambling locally, so I don't see Vegas coming back. 
    • If I could dump American Citizenship for Canadian, I would do it this afternoon.  No hesitation.  AT 60K, my house is almost paid off, hell I could buy that in a few years comfortably.  I want to travel, badly.  More evidence the economy is going in the tank. Salad I eat sometimes at lunch was $8.50 in 2022, 12.50 last fall, now $15.00. A trade war and other things, we are going to have double digit inflation and double digit unemployment before this is over. I don't know that the car market as we know it will survive.  Interesting video.
