Vehicle Description
As the pet project of Volkswagen chairman Dr. Ferdinand Piech, the
Phaeton was designed to take on the might of BMW and Mercedes-Benz
in the high-end luxury sedan market. Envisioned as the finest
luxury sedan in the world, Volkswagen spent billions on design and
development, including construction of an all-new state of the art
factory. Engineers succeeded in creating an outstanding luxury car
that bettered the competition in nearly every category, with the
flagship featuring a 420-horsepower 6.0-liter W12, all-wheel drive,
and virtually every luxury nicety one could need. This
collector-owned Phaeton W12 is one of fewer than 500 delivered new
in the USA, and one of only thirty 2005 models. It has covered just
over 56,000 miles from new and is offered in excellent condition.
It is a rare example that has been consistently maintained without
regard to cost, including recent fitment of all-new Gen II air
suspension, proper Continental tires, and air conditioning
compressor replacement. Finished in Black Heliochrome paint over
excellent gray leather trim, it is an outstanding example of this
rare and intriguing modern collectible. This vehicle just arrived,
and a full description is coming soon. Please contact Hyman Ltd for
