i should also mention it was the v6, not the 1.8t so that might be where some of the hatred came from because i hated that motor

Again though, WTH, a passat over a maxima. I still can't believe it.

There's a Toyota plant in my city, but they're still Japanese cars. It's the Japanese quality design!

so let's see here, you passed up a 99 maxima for a PASSAT? I do believe I should shoot myself in the head, or better yet, shoot you.
and don't threaten me for a decision not made by me

I thought the Audi A4 was the #1 gay man vehicle? All the Jetta's around here are driven by hot white chicks (and they're all 2.0L with automatics). My coworker is the only hot white chick I know of who drives a VR6 with a manual.

I had my 2000 Passat for two years. In that time the coolant temperature sensor and mass airflow sensor went out. The turbo bypass valve went bad (but that's probably because my APR chip was pushing out a peak boost of about 22 psi). It was hella fast when everything was working (handled great too). I still kinda miss it, but it was hard to fantasize about mowing down SUVs while driving it...which is why I now have the Ram.
