I don't get the "Ennui" license plate as far as the Phaeton is concerned.

Many confuse ennui and boredom.

Boredom is having nothing to do; which, to me, implies a lack of intelligence. If you're smart, you can keep yourself occupied.

Ennui is having done it all and there's nothing left. Webster's, I believe, defines it as "world weariness as a result of satiety" or somesuch.

In this case, there really is "nothing after Phaeton", hence the knowledge there's nothing else to experience.

(To quote Mrs. White from the movie Clue: "Life after death is as improbable as sex after marriage".)

Great thread - I like to see your Phaetons ...
So here is mine: GP0 2006, 3.0 TDI, cairo grey, perfect car, trouble free

(For higher resolution and more, check here: http://www.localtouch.biz/phaeton)

Note: The photos are a bit "color enhanced" (cairo grey looks different in reality) - you can see the originals also at the link above

Sorry about this, it sure doesn't help .
Host your photos on the net (use www.photobucket.com, for instance) and copy/paste the [img] link they give you for your photo in your text.

You must put [ img ] and [ /img ] tags around the address (I put a space in between the brackets and img so that the browser doesnt look for an image).

But your link does not seem to work...

@work one week ago.....

and an hour ago I got new xenon foglights....

[Christopher DK]

Is that a Ford GT40 in the background?

[soniccruiser]

... an hour ago I got new xenon foglights....

Most interesting and it looks great! Thought about doing the same. Question: Could you simply replace the bulbs with the LED-bulbs or did you have to add a resistor in parallel? I read that for some cars it is necessary to add a resistor equivalent to the normal bulb resistance to avoid that the car thinks the bulb is broken. An LED-bulb draws significantly less current. How does the Phaeton electronics respond to the LED's fog lights?

Here's a couple from Hawaii, these pictures were taken last weekend, near the North Shore Sugar Mill. This is a 2005 V8 Five Seater, White with Beige interior rolling on 20" Bentley Wheels.

I removed the 6 Disc Changer and installed an IPod Interface, the faceplate you see is a blank DIN 3 gauge type, which I sourced on a European Website. This cover just snaps into the DIN sized hole left from the removed CD changer.

awful cell phone pic, but a start! Drove 400 miles to get it...


And what the hell is this in my center console!!?!?


What I traded for the Phaeton... everyone thought I was insane, but I have that Phaeton love that BMW can't provide =) =)

[invisiblewave]

The connector inside the centre console is, I believe, an external phone antenna.

W(12)asif,
Beautiful ride.
1. Is roof painted black?
2. What is written under mirror?
Regards, Tim

[W(12)asif]

Thanx Tim.

1. The car is originally black. I just got the car wraped in white, but i kept the roof black.

2. Its written: SOFIENBERG BILSENTER. Thats the name of my company. You see I am a car dealer. The car shop you see behind my Phaeton is my shop.

[Passat2001_5lover]

OK Thanks for the explanation

Your wheels are awesome looking with the white. My own preference is to avoid wheels that are black in any way, as I prefer silver metallic look on cars. But, again, your wheels are stunning looking to me. Also, the painted lower valences also make a stunning looking ride. Well done, and thanks for sharing your photos!
