I'm going the other way.

Currently have a 2006 Euro Luxury 62000 Km. Dealers low balled for $20k trade. It's worth at least 27k but when it comes time Ill sell at 25500 for a quick sale.

For those of you who may be interested it looks like I'll be getting an Accord Euro Luxury with nav.
Also getting some performance mods from JTune (CAI, headers, cat and exhaust with an ECU tune to follow later this year).

It was great hanging around on the forum and I enjoyed meeting several of you but I don't think I'll be around much any more.

Hopefully by the time the new Passat "R" model is released I'll be in a position to buy one.

Drive safely.

I gotta admit that ozhonda is pretty damn ordinary.
No where near as useful as this one.
There's tons of info on the previous Euro but very little on the new one.

Thanks for the encouragement.

Locked down a final price for the Euro today with all the extras I'm after and it all comes in under the mark.
Still have to wait a while for delivery but at least there's light at the end of the tunnel.

Can anyone tell me how to transplant the V6 and 4Motion system from the R36 into a Euro?
Guess I'm gonna have to bide my time.

Settling for a car you don't really want must be so hard. You only live once.

I hear what you're saying but to be honest it's not such a disappointment.
I'll get my R36 one day (or whatever the replacement is....hopefully something with a turbo)
I'm still young enough to to be patient.
I've personalised the Euro enough to keep me happy for a while. When the ECU tune comes out for it I'll add that as well.

Haha, it's like settling for a Proton when you were really lusting after a Corolla....

The Honda isn't a bad car at all. If it's anything like my 06 euro you'll have no troubles. It's a perfect car from which to upgrade to the VW. I bought mine for $41k and after 3 years can get $26k. Not bad.

Sean, you know it's tempting mate!!!
You could squeeze a lil more out of them, drop the price a lil... i'm sure of it.
Demo or not, you'd love it!!
Good luck with your choices mate.

Cheers,

Jayse.

Damn liars! I hate dealers sometimes. That's definitely NOT a MY09!
