2006 Volkswagen Phaeton Rear
VW planned to sell 5,000 of these all-wheel-drive super-Passats in the first year but has been struggling to break 1,000. Brand-blind luxury car shoppers might want to check this one out, as VW has been paying some dealers $10,000 for each unit they unload, which might help with the 70-grand and 100-grand starting prices of the 335-horsepower V8 and 444-horsepower W12 versions. Audi aside, Volkswagen is still the only company to offer a W12 engine anywhere.
