Overall I'm happy I traded but I miss my 44 mpg but I'm getting 34 from the frs.

I do miss the torque and initial acceleration in the tdi but the frs is night and day difference in the fun factor.
No leather here but I wish I had it, VW leather interiors are top notch now, the top trim of the passat looks like a $50k+ car interior now. When the fiance get the TDI its not like its going anywhere though really it just won't be my daily anymore. I kinda wanna rip out the 2 cats in my midpipe and get a stage 1 tune (170hp, 290tq) before I give it to her but she'd kill me if it gets even worse as a commuter car lol
