Read Small Print
Adventure

there a better way to take in Paris that a stroll arm-in-arm with someone you

café, a leisurely cruise down the River Seine, or a lingering moment at
a Van Gogh in the Musée d'Orsay. However you choose to spend your time
in Paris, the City of Light will illuminate a place in your heart like no other.

Touareg is surely a name that is mispronounced over and over, but there is no
mistaking the visual aspects of this vehicle as anything other than a Volkswagen.

and though visually appealing you had best hold off on the cheek pinching until
you witness it devour off-road conditions.

the easy driving comfort of a luxurious sedan.
Freestyle should elbow

see-through doors closed in front of me with a sense of
finality. There was no turning back. No bailing out. And
hopefully, no screaming, to be done. The air crackled
with more than the whirr and whine of metal cables sliding
skyward; it crackled with agitation, anticipation, apprehension.
