I would never consider anything that are subject to depreciation an investment (supercar maybe) and secondly no desire what so ever 
(That's me only as I am sure others would like to have one)
What else could you get for that price range? I am sure there are plenty of alternative beside a dressed up Volks.

Sorry but depreciation is almost everywhere around you. Nothing lasts forever. I think you meant 'money that is invested with an expectation of profit'. This i agree with and of course the car is not an investment. That's why most of the time i put the word in quotes cuz i don't really refere to the basic meaning of the word.

We have heard this "Audi is a VW" argument before. I think the only negative is that Audi/VW resale is not as good as MB or BMW, not that all Audis/VWs are inferior cars.
Personally, I would rather have an S8 than a 750i/760i and that Bugatti Veyron is not a bad car either.
The Phaeton is different as it was not distinctive at all and should have never been built.
