Wonder what he is going to do here. Probably rename the Golf the G60 or something.

LOL what a shamefully overpaid good old boy’s club, the exec ranks . Let’s see what this one trick pony has up his sleeve.

I’m lazy, so I’ll just repost my FP comment about how I imagine he held his first team meeting:
“Suuuuup, mothafackas! Did you miss me?!
“OK, first thing we’re going to do is change the logo. Oh, you just did that? Well I guess I’ll just go home for the day. PSYCH! I bet I had you going.
“Can we add stupidly chromed grilles devoid of personality to everything? You did that, too?! You people are too much!
“Lastly, you all know why I’m really here. We have to change names to stuff that makes no sense, or is at least really hard to pronounce. Smith, get me a marketing report on how many times Arteon and Tiguan have been mispronounced in the past 6 months. Then we’ll focus on the Atlas. Now that we don’t have Touareg to keep people on their toes, we have to try harder. Free association...Atlas...Atlas...Maps...Projections...Mercator...Geography...Geggy Tah...Changing Lanes...Projeggy...Getting Jeggy with It...Will Smith. That’s it, we’ll rename the Atlas as the Hancock . That’s a name NOBODY could possibly make fun of.”

So now both the CEO and COO of VWoA were once the ‘CEO’ of AoA.

Honestly getting away from Detroit was a good idea. It’s a stifling atmosphere to design and market cars, with a stodgy ideas and weird pressures.
That said, New York really isn’t a great choice either. Going to Manhattan, the one place in the country where people really don’t need cars just was never going to be a great fit. They would have done better to go to Los Angeles or something.

I’d like to see his resume and how he sold himself.
@Caddy - Spent multiple butt-loads of $$$. Renamed everything. Still can’t get any brand interest from anybody except old people and rappers. *shrug*
@Infiniti - Spent multiple butt-loads of $$$. Renamed everything. Still not as good as Lexus. *shrug*
