Guess what I saw?

Check this out.

I was driving down the freeway this morning and a saw a blueish colored car that really caught my eye. As I sped up, I could not beleive my eyes. I thought that I saw SEAT written on the back but I knew that they are not imported to the U.S. As I got closer, It was in fact a Seat Toledo. Very cool looking.

That is not the best part. After I looked the car over about three times I saw a TDI sticker. Both the D and I were red. I was so stoked that I pulled up next to him, took off my sunglasses, and gave him a big thumbs up. He did a double take, took off his Aviator sunglasses and gave me a big cheesy grin and a thumbs up. It was a true bonding moment.

My conclusion is that the man works for the military and he got to bring the Seat in for the period of his service. Some of you military guys out there would probably know more about that than me.

Anyway, I thought that it was cool enough to tell everyone about.

Must be a very quick guy, because the tDI isn´t out yet. For now only 110hp.
Guess it was a tester.

Was it like this ?

1996 Passat Tdi estate (wagon (variant))

Interesting footnote, I saw a blue Polo with Mexico Tags parked on Franklin street in Chapel Hill last week. Pretty cool!

SEAT Toledo; indeed, a nice-looking sports sedan while the Leon is an excellent hot hatch.
Too bad we don't have any of these cars available here!

Ummmm...we do. They're called the "Jetta" and the "Golf."

Nice looking car - kind of has a Lexus-look to it.

I like my Jetta better.

I wouldn’t read too much into a car’s badge, some unscrupulous people have been known to change them
