Beanboy Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Caught testing on the Ring: http://www.germancarfans.com/spyphotos/6061024.005/6061024.005.1L.jpg http://www.germancarfans.com/spyphotos/6061024.005/6061024.005.mini8L.jpg More here: http://www.worldcarfans.com/spyphotos.cfm/country/gcf/spyphotoID/6061024.005/volkswagen/spy-photos-vw-passat-r-36 Sincec they already have the 3.6L in the US Market, wondering if they might boost power if this model makes it to the US... Manual AWD performance wagon? Hmmm... -B http://www.standardshift.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wukindada Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 If they throw & turbocharger on it........... I might just take a look @ that VDUB Toyota 6EATS .........SUCK!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praedet Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Sadly, if SOA kills the LGT wagon, or never brings back a manual wagon, I might have to settle for this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSiWRX Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Somewhat worried about the infamous VW-reliability issue, but damn if that thing ain't teh sex for a factory-bodied vehicle. Me likey. I'd roll in one. Definitely gotta have the turbo(s), though. <-- I love Winky, my "periwinkle" (ABP) LGT! - Allen / Usual Suspect "DumboRAT" / One of the Three Stooges '16 Outback, '16 WRX, 7th Subaru Family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deimos Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 No power increase, just a bodykit and maybe suspension + some other goodies. meh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beanboy Posted October 24, 2006 Author Share Posted October 24, 2006 Manual transmission/DSG alone would be a big step: Volkswagen Passat Wagon 4Motion - V6 3.6L (280 hp) 6A Tiptronic + ABS 0-60 6.24 1/4 mile 14.68 98.80 Runs a few tenths faster than a automatic Legacy GT wagon, and look at that trap speed... -B http://www.standardshift.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobE Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 I can't wait until the new R32 comes out. It will definately require a look. And, the Passat R36 would be pretty cool if they boosted (no pun intended) power a bit and added the DSG. http://newenglandsubarus.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSiWRX Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 ^ Exactly, to all of the above. DSG (despite my preference for shift-it-yourself) + boost. Those would be my purchase requirements. ^ Reliability be damned! <-- I love Winky, my "periwinkle" (ABP) LGT! - Allen / Usual Suspect "DumboRAT" / One of the Three Stooges '16 Outback, '16 WRX, 7th Subaru Family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew.anderson Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 We see VWs everyday here. I would hope for a BMW 1 or 3 series or Audi A4 wagon . They look better. I will find my digital camera and try and take some pics tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Pimp Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Too heavy - they should put it in the lighter Jetta instead. After all the new Passat is just an extended Jetta/Golf platform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
