Times are a-changing: high tech in Dresden – they try to change the image of that city, formerly ruled by stupidity and communism: actually Volkswagen has built a transparent factory, watch the youtube video:

This is an amazing application of robotics and technology in automobile manufacturing. Unfortunately, the unions would never allow this in the U.S.
My first car was an VW Super Bug. I loved it.

I visited the Dresden glass factory when living in Görlitz in 2008. Since at the time my rental car was a VW Phaeton (which is made in Dresden) I was lucky enough to follow some Phaetons being made on the line.
Very impressive (but I don’t drive a Phaeton any more).
