The thing that my Mrs (the target for these cars) identified as cheap looking? Non-color matched fender trim.
This takes that to the extreme.

I had that same feeling with the Tiguan loaner, when I had to return it, It felt like I met this one girl on vacation and had to say goodbye when I return it.
Wow i'm old.

My sister just had to upgrade from their Highlander to a Sienna because with 3 kids, it just wasn't cutting it anymore. She said the Sienna has been great and wishes they'd done it sooner.

It is a jerky transmission, My GTI's DSG is smooth compared to it, and also it is the programming that does this. But sport mode solves the early shifting problem. I actually used to that very quickly, when I got my GTI back, gave a little gas, I had a holy shit movement.Johnny_P wrote: ↑Sat Jun 17, 2017 8:46 amthe Tiguan transmission is horrific.MexicanYarisTK wrote: ↑Wed Jun 14, 2017 1:16 pm

I also meant in a sense that it is more comfortable, I don't have to slowdown for dips so I won't worry about scraping.

For the 2018, I didn't see that in the commercial, but the middle seat separation thing is pretty cool, especially when people can have easier access to 3rd row.[user not found] wrote: ↑Sat Jun 17, 2017 5:56 pmYeah Honda has that. It's brilliant.MexicanYarisTK wrote:
Have you seen the new pacifica commercial, the van itself even comes with a vacuum.
edit: nevermind, saw a 2014 has that too. Chrysler acts like they are introducing it as a new innovation.

I barely used that on my mk6 a couple of times, it isn't exactly a fridge isn't? I turned to a point when i can poke my finger is the one that brings out the cold right?
I have tried my water in there, it felt like it barely did anything.
