It's not that Adelle or I need a new car, but I just love automobiles and VW's latest commercials make them so intriguing! Walking around town, Adelle has taken a liking to the new Jetta TDI Sportwagon and I'm all for it. Maybe it just might be the ticket in trading in her Honda Civic and my BMW 5.28iT Wagon? Of course, this is just all wishful thinking!
The VW Passat also looks amazing traveling just under 800 miles in one tank!!! AMAAAA-ZING!
A couple of years from now when the BMW F10 M5 is "affordable" as a pre-owned vehicle, and the universe aligns itself financially speaking, this car will most definitely be invited into the garage. I'm still a fan of the E39 M5 and haven't found a good one just yet in the right price range but if you know of one or someone that wants to pick up a 1999 BMW 5.28iT (sports wagon), I'll take the trade. For now, enjoy the video below. All I can say, A-WOW!
