the december issue of CAR reports that the new passat will be based
on the audi a4 floorpan. i.e. longitudinal layout with audi's
quattro system for 4wd as an option.. finally, the VR6 and a
real quattro all in the same car!
the most shocking news item was the announcement of the VR5 2.0
engine. go check out rec.autos.vw.. i made a posting there.
