Owners are angry as **** for being lied too by these liars.
Its a shame all these people were lied too, they bought cars that were supposed to be eco friendly, instead they were polluting the environment with NO.
It looks like VW does not have the money to cover this lawsuit, they will most likely have to see all their subsidiaries.
This just popped into my head, it's only tangentially related (I explain how below), but this is a really terrific podcast about why the Red Cross is not well liked by US service men.

The part that I was thinking about is how they talk about "categorical change", and how I think that while this is a huge scandal for Volkswagen, it's not a categorical change, i.e. we really latently expect to be screwed by large companies, so when it happens, it doesn't fundamentally change our view of them. Again though, fantastic podcast.

TBF, those 2016 models were probably already built and sitting in storage before the scandal broke. Remember with cars, you can buy the next year's model close to a year before.
