The new Passat is awesome. What colour did you go for? What made you got fot the V6 over the Turbo Petrol or Turbo Diesel??← jetute said: nice choice cro!!! but why no snail?←The snail version is a bit too slow, only available in bum dragging drive and no DSG gearbox option. The TDI is way too slow, and a bum dragger AWD is awesome, one of the best feelings I got when driving was when I flattened the throttle before the apex of a corner and it just powered out, even with sh*t tyres.The DSG was a massive selling point, it's a full manual gearbox with 2 clutches (but no clutch pedal), your next upshift is always pre-selected and takes about 4ms to do the shift. Even under full load you don't notice the gears changing. Downshifts however is where I really love this gearbox.. With the Ford, Holden, etc.. Tiptronic Auto's offered you can't downshift if the revs of that lower gear are going to be more than say 4000rpm. With DSG you can downshift right to redline, and the throttle will automatically be blipped to match the revs.I'm going the same colour, wheels and interior on those pics up there. The body colour is similar to that baby blue version of blueprint on the BF's right now.
