Don't really like the car.. it is a nice car though .
A E-Class is better still .

Its ok but the rims don't go with the bodykit.

Estate version is nice.

300 is an alright figure but i know what i mean it needs more, if it had an extra 50 hp or so it would be putting it into a whole new leauge

i agree with jamesy the rims look classy and the 'kit looks sporty

aww, i saw that, and i was dissapointed, you guys should probably have seen the concept car of it, greyish passat with lots of black trims? that was cool, and now its this...looks good, but dosent make that feel of the sportiness...would have liked to fix abit on it...

Wait a minute. The Passat is the executive model of VW, so why don't they make a version with like 400BHP so it competes with the M5 or something?

make a GT version of it, looks and indeed will perform great...good idea...

no because the passat is slightly bigger than the A4 (i think) but smaller than the A6 so if they made a powerful car it would step on the toes of either car

I'd prefer the "Mitsu" Evo. It'll be cheaper, faster and more exciting

u got a good point there but the quality of the VW would probably be better lol yeah the power should be added to compte with the M3 and what not

Bah, it really doesn't look grea thanks to that supposed to be subtle body kit. Although power and performance is good, it'll have scoot, and that's a good thing. Hopefully they can doctor that styling that's in need of surgery.

I think it's pretty cool. It would be a hell of a car in this neck of the woods if only they made a wagon version.
I guess I would take a Vectra OPC over it though, it's pretty cheap for what it is. The new Passat is expensive as hell over here.

Holy cow. The shape of the bonnet and the front looks even better than the R8. This car officially prawns!

I like it. Follows the R32 quite nicely. VW are creating some pretty nice cars right now. Nice blue paint on it, I like that touch and the chrome grille around the outsides is nice aswell.

And 300bhp is planty enough, and with all wheel drive, it should go pretty well.

Woah, I didn't even notice the Wagon. lol. Well, now it's definitely cool as hell. I want one. It should be pretty cheap as wagon.

It's a bit of a waste of time really, but it's quite nice.

Why the hell are you bringing up E classes? I would assume that the E class starts with its smallest engine around the price of that R36.

The car is pretty cool, fast, comfortable, good looking and probably cheap. Can't wait to see what they could do.

It's a bit of a waste of time really, but it's quite nice.I couldn't disagree more. It adds abit of "sport" to your normal boring family sedan. It's for those people that are tired of being moring..or never were in the first place.

I like it a lot, shame that because its a VW it won't be nearly as popular as it should of been. Passat W8 anyone?

300 is an alright figure but i know what i mean it needs more, if it had an extra 50 hp or so it would be putting it into a whole new leauge

Don't worry, I'm sure Abt, B&B etc are on the case already...

I absolutely love this car. I would take the wagon though because so much more space than the sedan. 300BHP really isn't that bad either. You could take some nice cars in that thing and people would be amazed, especially if you through a better exhaust and a bigger turbo on their. An intercooler wouldn't hurt either.

My new favourite sedan!! Its got the looks, the performance, and most importantly in all sedans, the practicality....
