New from Fort Worth, TX
Picked it up a couple weeks ago
Premium plus w/ tech package
All black interior, silver accents
Can't wait, I have already seen numerous nice allroads here, great inspiratiion!
Old vs. New
I really hate the front plate so I put in a european plate I had from the cc. I want to find a grill win no plates.
Got the front windows tinted to match the rest of the windows.
Weathertech mats came in, love them.
Things I noticed after about a week of owning it:
- gas mileage is ok but not great, I have had 2.0t's since 2005, 6 total. Not what I am used to but I understand its heavier and AWD.
Smaller tank then the passats and cc I have had, closer to a GTI tank
- wtf is up with brake dust? how long do these pads last and are there better pads to replace them after?
- I got a rock chip sooner then I thought, getting clear bra put in tomorrow
- Transmission seems sluggish, I have had 2 DSG, 2 auto and 2 manual VW.
- over all its been great, like is said all i have had since 2005 were VW's. This definitely feels more refined.
Clear bra install, Suntek
Suspension install
