    How many miles on your passat ?

    8500 on my 2015 SE, picked it up with 6200 a month ago. Had ~56k on my 2013 before the buyback.

    Has anyone returned a stripped TDI yet?

    I stripped mine down really far. Stole two of the black VW wheel inserts and the pulling tool because they work on my GTI.

    Buyback COMPLETED Car is now in Dealership Lot

    Was the third buyback in the state of Wisconsin. Turned car in at 5:25pm on 11/29/16 and walked out before 5:40. Buyback worker stated it was very helpful having all forms filled out properly and NOT putting the mileage on the odometer sheet until I was at the dealership. Received the EFT...

    Anybody consider the VW GTI to replace you TDI hatch??

    Went with a 16 GTI myself to replace my TDI Passat. Love the car so far, you just have to be realistic about the fuel economy. I drive about 24 miles each way and am averaging about 34-35 miles per gallon so far. I would have gotten a WRX but with a $4,500 discount on the GTI it would cost me...
