The 3.6-liter VR6 makes the new Passat a top-flight sport sedan. Producing an impressive 280 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque, it offers power and luxury-class driving comfort, with European-type restraint in its fuel consumption—the EPA highway estimate is 28 mpg. Shifting on the new Passat VR6 is handled by a standard six-speed DSG.

This flagship model adds leather seating surfaces, keyless entry with push-button start, RNS 510 navigation, driver seat memory, wood grain interior décor, eight-way power passenger seat, and interior chrome accents.

RE: 2012 Volkswagen Passat SEL Premium is in the CF garage
Yea, I'm curious about the transmission also. I sat in a few VWs at NYIAS. They have some great fit and finish and I don't mind the styling with the tan interior. The black interiors just looked cold but this color combo on the tester looks good.

I love pussy, I love bitches, dude I should be runnin' PETA.

Looks pretty good. The front end is a bit plain which to me is a shame because the rest of the car is well done.

No. It's not a V6, it's a VR6. :tounge:

Angel is the one testing the car.


OK, I will give you a hint. I voted for that person at least twice. That should be more than enough info to narrow things down.

Rear Passengers don't need no muthafuckin AC ! rofl

“The build sheet is the wish list of any racer: lightweight high-revving dry-sump LS7 engine; carbon-ceramic brakes; integrated coolers; true aerodynamic downforce, and a significant reduction in curb weight. This car could only come from Chevrolet, and could only be called the Z/28.”
