B7 Passat Owners Check-In Photo Thread

[Volcombug]

Nice! Congrats! I've debated on getting a 2nd Passat bc my wife's car is starting to cost too much to maintain.

My Mom got the 2012 Jetta SE and is still getting used to it since she has been triving a truck around for 15 years. She loves it though! Parents traded a GTI and Tahoe and are only paying $100 more amonth. Going to save lots in gas so it makes up for the extra cost.

Love that you have the two passats that's so cool! If you had got the TDI then I could've taken pics with you (i'd have to drive across country haha) and it would've been 2.5 S, TDI SE, and 3.6 SEL a little of everything! But I can understand not wanting to wait for the TDI. Congratulations on your new B7!!!

We may not have a TDI Passat but it would still be fun to take some photos. Take some pics showing the Passat love. Ha ha! Enjoy your drive across country. Where you driving to?

I love white cars with tinted windows.....I grew up in Miami(35 years down there), if you haven't lived there, no way to coprehend how darn hot/humid it is, and the white car with tinted windows is a huge help.....plus it is beautiful!

Lovin' the Estate. Wish they offered it in the US still. Had to "settle" for the B7 sedan. Absolutely GREAT legroom though!

I have a 2.5 SEL Premuin in the same color combo. Maryland's tint laws is 35%, so I've thinking about getting mine tinted soon. Please post pictures of your tint when you can!

LOVE LOVE LOVE the 2.5 SEL non premium is probably the rarest model next to the 3.6 SE and TDI SE sun nav!!

Embrace it as it will probably be dropped from the lineup!

You have the sport comfort seats without dynamica and RNS510 but no KESSY! That is a super unique combo and although you probably have no idea, you should like I said embrace it!

Did you get another one or trade yours off?

[rexxmann]

Just picked up our new Gray on Gray Passat TDI SEL Premium today. We traded in my wife's 2006 Jetta 2.0T. I haven't driven it enough to give a full review but so far I like it. It's not as quick as the 2.0T but it's her car, not mine and she never had speeding tickets until the 2.0T. I did twice catch a very faint odor of diesel. Once was after sitting idle for a few minutes and then driving off. I think the car actually handles better than the Jetta. It seems to lean less in turns. I really like the looks of the car, especially a side view. The car just looks very long and low.

[TDItimes2]

not sure if that question was address to me but I traded in my 2008 Mazda 6 Sport for this one.
WE also have the 2011 TDI Golf 6MT which my wife drives.

Nice! We're enjoying the car a ton at the moment. Had no idea that the SEL non prem was that unique. We scored a great price on it and have zero regrets. Keeping this puppy for the long haul!

I have a 2.5 SEL Premuin in the same color combo. Maryland's tint laws is 35%, so I've thinking about getting mine tinted soon. Please post pictures of your tint when you can!

Sorry, been neglecting this. Tint is done and looks fantastic. We went with ceramic tint. No pics yet but I'll try and snag some in the next couple days. Wife driving the car and her hospital hours are currently opposite of mine, so I'll snap some photos later this week and drop them here. You'll be pleased with the tint. I suggest keeping all windows same %. If you go darker in the back it just doesn't look the same.

Ordered 10/8. Picked up on 2/2. TDI SEL, 28% Tint
