Let the hating begin.....

I ended up with another Volkswagen. This was too good of a deal to pass up. Picked up this low mileage '04 Passat GLX V6 wagon over the weekend. Outside needs a good polishing but the inside is practically flawless. The car is pretty much optioned out...damn thing even has OnStar (VW offered this as an option back in select '04 models). The 2.8l V6 isn't a rocket by any means, but it runs on 87 octane and it doesn't have the reliability issues of the 1.8t. I absolutely love the car.

Immediate future plans include tint, a thorough exterior polishing, a European plate to cover the holes made by the US plate holder, and some subtle exterior upgrades. Eventually the car will see some conservative springs and maybe some sort of factory Audi/VW 17-19" wheels...but that is going to wait until I can finish up the suspension project on the Mustang.

Couple shots from this weekend:
