I fixed the 5th paragraph...

"But let’s not dismiss the V6-equipped Passat GT just yet, at least not without a little closer look at its merits. To mention it a third time, this is a German Sino-American dog's breakfast car. Let’s get precise."
I'd rather be car-poor than house-poor...

On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.

Two of my close friends bought one of these with TDI. I did not care for them before I drove/rode them.... They are quite nice to be honest. Well built, comfortable and the fuel consumption is awesome.

You're right.

But if I got a 2.0L Accord, it wouldn't be with the autobox.
