Should I Buy A Passat?

SmashMouth · 04-21-2013, 01:17 PM

Just went by dealer yesterday... They are offering lifetime mechanical warranty... Engine, transmission, etc... Yikes.. Tempting me now... But not as nice as the Avalon. The Touareg, otoh, i was drooling a bit. I will have to wait on that one.

Would a one word answer help?

Ok

Maybe

I would think that as long as you get it painted the right color ... say, black & gold with a fleur ... even the most hardcore of detractors would approve,

Now there's some truth to that actually, only I'll be in Dallas and somebody, Michael Irvin maybe, would surely steal the rims...

Got my eye on this one.

2010 - 14k - one owner lease 5k a year. All the whistles and bells with the I4 Turbo instead of the I5 in the newer ones.

Used 2010 Volkswagen Passat Komfort For Sale | Roseville CA .

I'm telling you.. Black 77 TA, drop Halo's avatar on the hood. Grow a mullet (Joe Dirt Style) , even Irving wouldn't come close.

Guaranteed to pull chicks like this:

That will not last long. You seem to have a touch of the bad luck with women... You will fall flat in love with a girl in Dallas only to lift that skirt and find the has on Dallas Cowboy panties.

You sir, are a genuine buzz kill. A destroyer of fantasy.

Now, for what it's worth, I purchased a Passat. I'll post a pic or three soon for those interested.

2010, 25k miles, Komfort, Black ext and int. Probably the nicest little car I've ever owned. I think Zooey will look quite nice in it too.

Congratulations!

I prefer "beacon of reality". :P

You bought the only color a vehicle should come in. Damn fine job!

Pictures!
