Winterkorn will have a lot of time at home to spend with his kitty now yes?

My opinion... enthusiasts will take note but to the average person this is a blip on the radar. And enthusiasts won't much care because they're all trying to find a way to take the cats off their cars anyways.

Environmentalists will probably never consider a VW (or another VW), but that's about it. Other manufacturers are involved in loss of life situations and they don't seem to be suffering terribly poorly, so I can't see this one having a noteworthy long term effect. In the short term however VW is in for a rough ride with ambulance chasers, Governments, shareholders, and the list goes on.

The difference with this one is that it was pre-meditated. It will be interesting to continue to watch this play out.
