For a brief moment, VAG passed Toyota as the #1 car seller in the world (though I think Toyota took the title back). I'm sure American dealers probably won't be the only one feeling the hurt in the near future. They took a risk trying to change direction in sales, they took a stupid risk with the emissions cheating, and chances are these probably won't be the last business decisions that will come to bite them in the butt. Bugatti released a new super car though, so at least they have that going for them.
