So what’s next? Literally just last night I sold my NOS B5M with NIP parts to get into a super modern buggy. I guess I’ll have to wait now.

They wanted to celebrate the end of the B6 platform, which is cool and all, but I prefer cars I can drive. Also this is pretty low effort for them to do this, all they need to do is shoot the molds with polycarbonate
Consistency is the key I keep misplacing.

It would seem that way but this is also the company that couldn't shoot the regular nylon into molds and be able to sell parts they had instead discontinued. They could have made good money on parts for the last few years but chose not to. I don't believe their molds were really lost for what a third time? Never sounded realistic.
