So what you’re saying is, you had a Mk4 VW once?

Neutral: I’m certainly never going to buy a CUV or SUV. It’s pretty strictly hatchbacks and sedans for my family, fun cars not withstanding.

Not my handiwork, but relevant:

“Help me MS-Paint, you’re my only hope...”

PLOT TWIST

I agree that Toyota really phoned it in. As a BMW owner, I say it’s fine because you get a BMW interior at Toyota prices. Wait, the Supra costs how much? Fuck you Toyota.

No. The steering wheel is the ugly part. I wish they speced that from the Toyota/Lexus parts bin.

Ok I really like it, but while I not one to jump on the “it’s just a rebadged BMW BAD” bandwagon, I will just say that they did a lousy job a Toyota-izing the center console.

Weird when a Kia looks more luxurious than a Cadillac...

Looks precisely like a BMW interior with a Toyota steering wheel. Even this UI is straight-up damn near identical to BMW:

Me: *thinking “that interior looks pretty nice”
Other people: The new Passat interior is a total letdown.
Me: Yeah, get it right VW, sheesh.

I don’t understand why they don’t make the new Passat on the MQB platform either. They are making the Arteon in North American on the MQB platform and the Arteon is the replacement for the Passat CC.

You talking about the same VW that makes the Golf R?

As the previous owner of a 2015 I can't believe they are recycling the interior so much. By far the weakest part of this car. I had the V6 SEL, which was otherwise actually a very fun car to drive, but I couldn't stand the interior. 

A few things I immediately noticed as an owner of a 2017 Passat:

Man, that styling is so sad, even sadder if those prices are indeed correct for the car too, they had something great with the concept. The car just looks plain puffy compare the more angled concept.

Way too much hype for an uglier Z4 with a Toyota badge. I don't think anyone would give half as many shits about this if it was called anything other than Supra. 

Goodbye Mugen, it was nice knowing you.

Now playing

Someone needs to tell bubb rubb and lil sis to get their shit right. The whistles go, “woooooo!”
