- curbcheck, on 10/12/2007, -1/+28Why would you want to buy it with all that golden palace casino crap all over it?
- masgrada, on 10/12/2007, -1/+27Goes on sale... again? "I love the car, but the radio only gets the Christian Rock station."
- MastaB, on 10/12/2007, -2/+28Link to the actual auction:

2. Nazis made the Volkswagen. So even if he was a Nazi, what's your point? - hexx54, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10"For the second time in two years, eBay hosted an auction for a car said to be Pope Benedict XVI's old hatchback. Though bids surpassed $204,000, a reserve price wasn't met."
Obviously it hasn't been sold yet, who likes Golfs anyway? - Chairboy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8I'd expect it to have a sunroof so he could wear his hat.
- CactusChef, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8With all those ugly stickers on it, you have to pay me $204,400 to take it away.
- Bahimiron, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7The year was 2019 and I was just a lowly robot arm working in an automotive research lab. I was working on Project Satan. A savage and intelligent military vehicle built from the most evil parts of the most evil cars in all the world. The steering wheel from Hitler's staff car. The left turn signal from Charles Manson's VW. The windshield wipers from that car that played Knight Rider. The gas cap from the Pope's old Volkswagen.
- LaueOfficer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Here's the real VIN, WVWZZZ1JZXB147983
- RalphDibny, on 10/12/2007, -5/+9does it still have his old hitler youth bumper sticker?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4How do you know if a Catholic is driving too fast?
http://www.floridadude.com/CatholicDrivingTooFast.jpg - Sandurz, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5The fact that the reserve for this '99 VW is above $204k is the most ridiculous thing.
- dasaroth, on 10/12/2007, -5/+8I find it weird people would bid that much for a volkswagen.
- 3tcp, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Marketing ploy. They never wanted to sell it they just wanted free advertising from all the attention they'd get for trying.
- masgrada, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2He was in Hitler's youth. Many kids were in that program.
- cyberdork, on 10/12/2007, -9/+11I find it weird that people claim he was a Nazi while he wasn't.
- ThinkBox, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4What if there were semen stains everywhere?
- rulezgetbent, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4my thoughts exactly
- DJPRIME90, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3With advertising saying that it was once his on the door, I wouldn't want it either lol.
- Devrdander, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Thats bid is bellow the original purchase price:
€ 188 938.88 = 255 407.578 U.S. dollars - seanc6610, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Yeah, that's what I thought too. I wonder how much higher the reserve could possibly have been.
- KuntaKinte, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2it didn't sell because the trunk is full of dead hookers
- Devrdander, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Original Purchase price: € 188 938.88 = 255 407.578 U.S. dollars
Wonder what they hoped to get for it? Guess the casino lost this gamble... - Tordenflesk, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3Exactly how was K.I.T.T evil? Surely it would be K.A.R.R?
+digg for the Futurama-quote - iTroll, on 10/12/2007, -5/+5I would totally drive the popemobile!
- haterofps3, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1That is great
A Casino is selling the Popes car on ebay. This must be the will of god for only he would have such a great sense of humor.
-Casino is giving half of the money to habitat for humanity. I don't think that makes it any better but oh well. - djh816, on 10/12/2007, -6/+4anybody care to check the VIN number on the auction? 111111... fake anyone?
- yuuu, on 10/12/2007, -4/+2$$$$
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -9/+7Holy Volkswagen :)
- heero101086, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1Doesn't Kevin Rose drive a Golf? So, I'm guessing he does.
- Dumbledorito, on 10/12/2007, -8/+1Is this the one Woody Allen finds in a cave in "Sleeper?"
- cankillar, on 10/12/2007, -10/+2It's a step up from http://reason-inc.com/blog/images/uploads/0,1020,461959,00_thumb.jpg
- ingenium21, on 10/12/2007, -21/+3Anybody else find it weird that a guy who used to be a Nazi used to drive a Volkswagen?
