layabout, you know dip squat nothing about current VWs. The Tiguan flat rocks. Wait until the TDI 4-Motion model arrives.

It is coming. Get ready. While the US auto industry is wallowing in "help us" mode, screw 'em. They made record profits selling SUVs and put zip, nada, nothing into R&D. My they rot in peace.

@bmwloco: I worked in the VW/Audi group for four years & i'm still in the motor trade & in touch with contacts at my previous employer. And living in Europe i got to deal with more models than are currently on sale in America,so to correct you,it's you that knows "dip squat" about current VW's.

@bmwloco: That wasn,t meant to come across as negative towards yourself,if you like them then fill ya boots,just pointing out they still have reliability issues that cost a small fortune in repair costs.

One of my neighbours just px'd his Golf TeDIous for a Tiguan,again the TeDIous model & has had non stop problems with it,he regrets buying it just like most VW owners & his perception of its image is far more important,even though it sounds like a van.

The only sound system I would want from a monster Tiguan would be a roaring diesel.

Given VW's success with the Touareg in previous rallies, I think this will be pretty awesome.

The Golf platform: Is there anything it can't do?

@c0de: Yep, I remember those (from pics only).

My wife is about to get a Passat 4mo wagon and I'm seriously thinking of ways to jack it up like an Audi Allroad or Volvo XC70. Just because.

@Ash78: imho, all wagons should either be jacked up or extremely fast.. since your's is 4 motion it's only natural to jack it up !

wonder if you can fit one of those hydrolic pumps sick thinggies.. i dunno what they're called.. but kinda like citroen's rear axle has

@c0de: Yeah, the Allroad has a pneumatic push-button suspension that will fit the Passat (with some work and $$), but they're VERY failure-prone and expensive to diagnose and fix.

If I could just find some coilovers with a raised/neutral/lowered setting...seems like most people want low/lower/lowest.

@Ash78: For all that kind of money you could just buy the first gen RS4,however talking your other half around may be the tricky part.

312 hp in a Tiguan? If it looks anything like that sketch, it might just dethrone the Raptor as the SEMA vehicle I'd most like to own. (or at least thrash the hell out of)
