    Car's gorgeous, but doesn't the Euro '11-'12 Passat share the same underpinnings as the B6?

    Does VW classify it as B7 or is it still B6? Just curious as the Euro Passat and the new US Passat are entirely different vehicles.

    I know - makes me want to cry! Good news is BMW might bring back the 5er wagon due to BMW owners bitching about that GT crap they call a 5er.

    There is hope.

    So nice. Mine is silver, with the same accessories setup...

    Hey, noticed all front lights have the same color (temperature). Did you change any of them?

    Passat B7 2012
    09-24-2011 11:48 AM #47
    Hi...my first comment on this forum.Sorry, but my English isn´t too good

    I have just sold my car.It was an Audi 2.0TFSI because I´ve ordered a new Passat B7 160TSI 2012. It will take about 7 weeks to get it ,and I think it will be built the 5 October. It will then take about 4 weeks before ít´ll be mine!

    Looks about the same as your car.Candywhite,black leather,18" Kansas and parkassist.
    But with 160 TSI-engine.If I had chosen the diesel engine it would have take about 4-5months more before i had it.

    Love your car!! Everything looks great!How did you change to xenon in the foglights?Any pictures?

    That's OK...vi snakke ikke så mye norsk! Absolutely beautiful car -- thanks for sharing all these great photos with us. While I am very happy with my 2010 B6 variant, I sure do like the LED headlights and front end look of the B7. I also like the TDI option (which VW of America always seems to take away from the Passat every time I am ready to buy a new car).

    It will be interesting to see how long it will take (if ever) for VW to offer a Passat wagon again here in the USA.

    I love all those wheels. I was thinking of #2 for myself. Where did you find that? The gunmetal S4 wheels will look really good though.

    you guys get all the cool stuff.. i personally wouldnt have tinted the headlights but to each their own... love the leds in top and bottom and the tag light
    For HIDS/LEDS PM Me

    If you're thinking of doing a ZKW projector retrofit, you're on heroin. If you're thinking of bolting BMW lights up to where your GTI lights sit now, you're on poor quality heroin.

    Love the wheels and I think the Passat has H&R springs mounted. I wonder how it would look like with H&R springs and Kansas 18" ???

    The Euro headlights will NOT fit a NA Passat. Someone is already looking into trying out the Chinese headlights in this thread.
