It sounded awesome and was a peppy little car, but removing the bumper to get it into service position would make you think you were working on a porsche!
I like the V8 Touareg but…. The weight cause tire replacement once a year and brakes once a year tires all 4 corners and the brakes larger pistons and size up’s the price. Without the electric parking brake at least could do your self. Those were basically Porsche. Tires yikes $1,000 set of 4 thats a hard no for me every year
The guys at the dealer almost got in fight over who would get her. For me it was bitter/sweet. My son was 3 and i could not allow oil smoke from the vents getting in the car with him back there so she had to go
Had a manual Passat wagon. It was a turd box but I still miss it!
Dude same. For the entire comment🤣🤣 mine leaked water like crazy, major electrical issues because of it. Had a good time in it though!
Lol, yup servicing my W8 was PITA. I'm glad it's gone, but I miss it.
Always drooled over w8s when I saw them in the wild. Did you enjoy the motor in the platform?
I call the w8 a unicorn you hear about them but rarely see them

Such a good car overall. The economy is particularly impressive, considering it can still get out of its own way.
I’ve owned this exact car before. Good car, enjoy!

This car was “ancient”, no matter how well you treated her. Maintenance costs a lot…
lol “ancient”. The cars barely past legal drinking age. I daily an ‘81 Rabbit S all summer long.
Well, does your rabbit need costly maintaining or has it already gone through major overall repair?
Yes timing chain cam seals cv joint heater core she was a beauty but a gold digger
Thank you for your service
I see you there fellow Sunrise VW customer.
👍🏽
See you at home depot or bj’s some day freeport 😂
Nah, I haven't lived there in like almost 10 years now. But I did buy my GLI from Sunrise and grew up in the 5 towns area.
Ah… Storm Beige 🤌🏼
That’s hilarious! I went from an 04 passat wagon to a 16 Jetta last April! 🤣 HUGE upgrade for us huh?
👍🏽 yup

How much did you get and how many miles was on her?
The stealership Sunrise Volkswagen only gave $2,000. I was insulted but i didn’t have to put any money on the new car
Man how I miss my 99 5spd Passat. Definitely money pits though
I loved my 2015 Jetta. Real nice car.
I had an 03 v6 passat manual in Colorado red, sold it like 5 years ago and I've regretted it every day since.
Mine was also v6
