Should be able to do it for around 20K.
They would sell boatloads.

If VW rationalized the car as a contemporary KdF-Wagen,they could offer 'strippers',made of steel and glass.No exotic materials at all.GDI and manual trans.
Mass produced,with economies of scale,they could retail at $11,000 US.
With synchronized traffic lights,50-mpg CITY,100-mpg HWY.
I'm not sure about 'Strength',but they'd sure have the 'Joy' covered.
