The new Audi Passat (or is that VW A6?) is going to be available with
160bhp, 2.3 liter VR5. The Audi Passat will also be available with A3's
100bhp 1.6, A4's 125bhp 1.8, and A6's 193bhp V6. Only the VR5 is going to
be unique to VW A6.

As I take a closer look, I don't think most people (except Audiphiles)
will be able to distinguish new A6 from new Passat. Bad choice. Even
GM/Ford/Chrysler do better on this cosmetic department than Audi-VW.

By the way, the new SuperChips ad is really, really horrible! In this
world where you cannot distinguish a frind from PC police, I'm suprised
that the new ad was able to go onto the magazines.
