Proud owner of a brand new Volkswagen, baked less than a month ago :)))

Lots of touch and tech inside, lots of assisting technologies -- quite a jump from a 2005 Audi a6. You can even track your car in your phone now OOTB :) cool!

    I had to think about this one again. It means out of the box :p

    Cool, congrats. It's a special moment. When I bought a car, my partner couldn't care less and I was like "hey dipshit, this is a big important thing".

    Has it got air suspension? Air suspension is a scam.

    @antigermgerm german, yes. However, I'm very happy with german cars so far. My old trusty Audi has been VERY reliable, regardless its age and mileage. Requiring very little maintenance (~2k€/yr, incl. fuel, insurance and fixes). While coleagues are averaging at ~400€/mo with their cars' maintenance

    @donkulator nope. Didn't have it amont options, don't really want it. If it breaks, I'll be paying through my nose. Standard hydraulic suspension is fine. Especially when it's adjustable via multimedia :)

    my condolences to picking one of the worst car manufacturers germany has ever produced. VW is garbage.

    @tosensei well it was either that or peugeot or volvo xc90. Vw was the best choice here.

    Does it have the remote shut off law enforcement can use? Curious on these new cars.

    @tosensei my friend had a smol leasebudget and we tried all smol / cheapish cars and the Volkswagen polo was an easy winner. It felt so decent. Even a Volkswagen Up! Feels very decent. Just the steering wheel and pedals.

    Btw, can we please get real pedals back? Sissy stuff these days.

    Be proud of whatever car you have mate. Congrats. Every car make fucking sucks one way or another.

    Although the tracking thing kinda creeps me the fuck out. But to be fair.. VW is probably not the only ones doing it.

    @angerydev thanks!

    Well, to be fair, I can't think of any way my old trusty a6 would suck. Apart from being morally outdated ofc -- it's 20 years old after all.. Older than some of us on this platform :)
