Default S6 Avant vs VW W8 Avant
VW Vortex today profiles the Passat W8, which will probably be offered statside next spring. It will have 4WD and 275 hp. Does it seem like a better value than the S6 Avant? Which has more rear seat room? I have a one and a nine year old, with the former occupying a child seat in the middle.

Anxious to replace the Outback...

Default Passat W8 still vaporware
Just like S6. Don't count chickens etc.

Get a nice Allroad and enjoy. Or an X5.

Don't know what the numbers are, but the A6 back seat is bigger

Oh, then it still vaporware, by definition.

In the US doubly so.
