December 2008 *FIGHT* Mixed Martial Arts Magazine Featuring FRANK MIR “To Hell & Back”
After Chairman Martin Winterkorn took over Volkswagen a lot of the automakerâs future products were put on hold. The heavily publicized Passat-based coupe became the first victim of Winterkornâs fresh management scheme.
The Passat which was originally planned to debut at a gala in Berlin on February 15 is officially on hold as ordered by the new Chairman Winterkorn. Volkswagenâs new âBig Guyâ has assumed chairmanship of the German carmakerâs Wolfsburg headquarters on January 1.
The Passat coupe which is one of the soon-to-launch VW models is under scrutiny by the new management team. Other models that are put on hold includes the reborn Scirocco sports coupe and Tiguan small utility vehicle but unlike the Passat, the aforementioned vehicles have been already revealed in concept form and were already due in showrooms within the next twelve months. Another car that was put to wander in Limbo is next-yearâs bread-winning sixth-generation Golf.
News of the Passat being officially put on hold came as a surprise to many especially when they are expecting for this vehicle to compete with Mercedes-Benz CLS. According to reliable sources the Passat was part of a multi-million-Euro niche model offensive created under the former Chairman Bernd Pischetsrieder. The Passat together with the Scirocco and Tiguan was conceived to lessen the automakerâs financial dependence on traditional large-volume models, while pushing it into new segment and exposing it to the new customers.
Not to disappoint too much the Passat fans, Volkswagen will launch the vehicle at the coming Geneva Motor Show but in a concept guise. A definitive production version of the vehicle will also make its debut at the November Los Angeles Auto Show scheduled at the end of this year.
âWe were all set to present the CC (VWâs internal code for the car, denoting C-segment Coupe) but its future is now up in the air,â a high-ranking insider told AutoWeek.
Winterkorn is steadfast in making his mark in Volkswagen same as what he did with the Audi company which he helped to achieve record sales and profits.
The future of the Passat remains bleak as Winterkorn puts it on hold but hopes are high especially since plans are already underway to build the coupe at the Volkswagenâs Emden facility in Germany and stopping the production this late would prove costly.
Winterkorn says he has a clear vision for VW. âWeâre in the process of evaluating the entire business,â he said at the recent launch of Audiâs R8 in Las Vegas. âIt will take some time before we can move forward with decisions on new products.â
The decision to make Winterkorn Chairman did not happen in an instance; reports say that it was in early December last year when it was decided to make the 60-year-old German to become the next VW Chairman. The German chairman after ascending office has surrounded himself with familiar faces from previous Audi Company. This has brought unrest to VWâs existing managerial ranks. Among those joining Winterkorn from Audi is Ulrich Hackenberg (Vehicle development), Walter de Silva (design), Wolfgang Hatz (engine development), Matthias Müller (product planning) and Jochem Heizmann (production).
Further news says that the new management team has already identified areas where all proposed new VW models can be improved but no specific details were given. Each new model will undergo a styling review as ordered by Winterkorn. Additional changes are also expected in the appearance of new VW models especially since the Big Guy wants to do away with the various front-end designs in favor of a more uniform appearance but of course to keep the high quality of VWâs vehicles, top-of-the-line auto parts are still going to be used like for instance its Volkswagen alternator.
About Volkswagen
Volkswagen is the largest and the most successful automaker in Europe but it was not always this way.
The word Volkswagen means âpeopleâs carâ. The idea of a peopleâs car in not a new concept in Germany, before the year 1930s there are already many efforts to create simple cars that everyone could afford unfortunately no one succeeded. Almost all cars that were produced before 1930 even if they were simply designed ended up costing more than the average workerâs yearly wage.
The year 1930 was also the very year that Ferdinand Porsche has set up an automotive design company which became known as the Porsche Büro. The company patented a sophisticated independent front suspension system which consists of transversely mounted torsion bars connected to the two railing arms on each side.
During those times the suspension produced by Porsche Büro was lighter than those commonly offered by other company. It was in 1933 when Porsche first designed a car for the NSU. It was called the Type 32 unfortunately again it did not push through.
Growing up with three brothers, Natalie Anderson became exposed early to the world of automobiles. This 29-year-old account manager now dreams of having her very own top-of-the-line vintage car.
After a dissapointing loss, Michael Bisping looks to rebound versus Denis Kang. The full 105 fight card: bit.ly … MMA “UFC 105″ UFC Bisping Kang Couture Vera Hard Swick
Randy “The Natural” Couture is returning to the Octagon on March 3, 2007 to face heavyweight champion Tim “The Mainiac” Silvia in a battle for the UFC heavyweight belt. There are two questions on everybody’s mind about this match up. First, does Randy have a chance? More importantly, is Randy risking his health?
I personally thought that Randy Couture got out of the MMA fight game just in time. He left with class after a second consecutive loss to Chuck Liddell in the UFC light heavyweight division. People respect Randy Couture, even more people like Randy Couture. Why on earth would he consider returning now?
Randy says he’s returning because he misses the fight game, because he believes that he is a better fighter than when he last stepped into the Octagon on February 4th, 2006. I think that the real reason that Randy is returning is that he is likely disgusted by the lackluster performance of the UFC heavyweight division. I read that Randy is negotiating a multi fight contract with the UFC, this is a big mistake in my opinion. I believe that Randy might have the tools needed to defeat Tim Silvia, but there is no way I want to see Randy fight Mirko Cro Cop.
Randy, if you have any sense at all, get in there, finish Tim Silvia and retire again. You are an absolute phenom as an athlete and an inspiration to those of us in our forties, but everyone has their time and MMA isn’t boxing. I’ve never seen you come into a fight in less than stellar condition and I’ve never seen you in a fight that wasn’t worth watching, that is the Randy Couture I want to remember. I don’t want to remember Randy Couture being knocked cold by a Mirko Cro Cop left high kick, then being taken out on a stretcher.
Enough of the pleas to have Randy cut this return short, let’s take a look at how this fight breaks down.
Starting with the stand up abilities of both fighters. It is tempting to look at this and say that Tim Silvia’s reach advantage and raw power will give him the edge in the stand up. True enough, but lets not forget that Randy has been in there with the likes of Chuck Liddell, Tito Ortiz and Vitor Belfor, all good to great stand up fighters in their own right. I put the stand up between Randy and Tim at dead even.
Moving on, lets talk about take downs. There is no way that Tim Silvia is going to take Randy Couture down, the only way Randy will end up on his back with Tim Silvia is if Tim knocks him down with a punch, then jumps on him. On the other hand, Randy’s strong wrestling background will certainly give him the advantage in take downs.
What about submission wrestling, grappling, or overall ground game? I have to give Randy the advantage in this area as well, even though Tim Silvia did look good on the ground against Jeff Monson, but Randy Couture is not Jeff Monson.
In the area of conditioning, there isn’t a better conditioned athlete on the planet than Randy Couture, one look at Tim Silvia’s physique tells us that he doesn’t spend the time in the gym that Randy does. Oh, I’m sure he’s at the gym, eating chicken wings and watching other guys spar. Okay, the last line was just a joke, Tim certainly trains hard and he didn’t gas against Jeff Monson. He also didn’t finish Monson either when he should have been able to. I give Randy the edge in conditioning.
So there you have it, Tim Silvia is stronger, Randy is better. We’ll see who comes out on top on March 3rd. My prediction, Randy Couture by decision.
