Introduced to America for 2004, the Phaeton represented one of the most ambitious moves in Volkswagen history. Conceived under Ferdinand Pich, it was engineered to compete with the world's best luxury sedans, bar none. Built on the same basic platform as the Bentley Continental Flying Spur, the Phaeton delivered exceptional refinement, impressive build quality, and premium road manners in a discreet, understated package. Unfortunately, potential buyers never fully embraced the idea of a six-figure sedan wearing a VW badge. Only an approximate 3,000 Phaetons were built, and U.S. sales ended after the 2006 model year, making quality survivors, including this outstanding example, quite rare today.
Elegantly finished in specially-ordered Luna Blue Pearl over a Beige interior, this 2006 Phaeton presents a restrained and dignified appearance. This unmodified example shows just 38,000 miles on the odometer at the time of writing, supported by the clean Carfax vehicle-history report, which documents three previous owners, the first a resident of Florida and Michigan, who retained the car for 3 years and 1 month and accumulated 15,875 miles. The second Kentucky-based owner acquired the Phaeton in 2009, adding under 200 miles before it was purchased by the third owner, also a Kentucky resident, who brought mileage up to the present level. In addition to the aforementioned Carfax, a printout of the build details is also included, exhaustively documenting this Phaeton's original data, features, and options.
Powering the Phaeton is Volkswagen's 4.2-liter V-8, factory-rated at 335 horsepower and 317 lb-ft of torque. A 6-speed automatic transmission and Volkswagen's 4Motion permanent all-wheel-drive system deliver all-weather performance and capability. A self-leveling air suspension system further enhances the driving experience, helping deliver a smooth and composed ride.
Inside, this Phaeton is luxurious and highly equipped with desirable features and passenger amenities. Among them are heated, ventilated, and power-adjustable front and rear seats with massage function, while wood grain interior trim adds the warmth and richness expected of a European premium sedan. Additional features include Xenon headlights, electric trunk release, a sunroof, 18-inch alloy wheels, and much more. Accompanying items include one key, an owner's manual, a First Aid kit, and a rear footrest. For the buyer who appreciates rarity, brilliant engineering, and discreet luxury, this final-year 2006 Volkswagen Phaeton provides an unusually compelling opportunity.
