Meh... it might be a good move, especially for non-car people. The Rabbit was here before the Golf and the rest of the VW lineup got really awful in the 80s and the whole "American VW" fiasco. I remember my parents used to own a 78 or 79 German-made Rabbit and even today they still have great memories of that car. They would neve actually buy another VW (they bought another VW, an American-made one. Yeah, that one sucked.) or any other European or American car, but still very good memories of the Rabbit.
