I now have my wife hooked on VW. Mission accomplished.

Say hello to my/our 4th VW...and my second Passat. Granite Green, '06 2.0T Tip with 67k on the clock. One owner that was originally purchased from the VW dealer and was traded back in for a new Passat.

The dealership was kind enough to drive the Passat to my wife (the dealership we bought it from is a little over an hour away)...now THAT'S customer service! I can't wait to get home and drive!! It's been too long that I've been out of a Volkswagen. It's good to be back!

Only one pic for now...I'll get more pics with the good camera when I get home in a week or two.



Pics from the dealer website:

And it won't be. This is the wife's daily driver since I'm gone for 5 weeks at a time. lol

She drives 3 miles round trip to work everyday, so it doesn't make much sense financially to stick money into an APR Tune or lowering, unfortunately.

Yes indeedy! I got to drive it...I was close to home for a few hours yesterday. It doesn't drive as nice as a W8 (more of a B5.5 fan in terms of interior comfort and feel too, but I should give it more time) but I'm still really happy. The wife is ecstatic, lol. She loves it!!
