I read somewhere they postponed the new Passat until 2005 (i.e. model year 2006!). Wonder if that still holds, the car has been around since 1997 and could use an update.

I like it.

Heavily influenced by the Phaeton.

Has to be a photoshop as the rear lights do not look right!

That said it is bloody pretty!

Looks like the Sales Reps are in for a treat!

Whether thats the car or not, I doubt it. VW aren't gonna replace the Passat for about 2 more years and I don't think they'd be that adventourous with the front grille. Even though it does look as sweet as.... :D
