A Passat wagon. The new ones have a pronounced character line crease down the flanks. I'm seeing this design language on other VW's over there now that I didn't see a year or two ago.Image

Up close you can still see bullet and shrapnel holes in the columns.

Cool.

I saw a new Tiguan over there, the short wheelbase version we don't get here. It was definitely nicer looking. The proportions looked better, tauter, less ungainly. I didn't get a chance to snap a pic doe. I'm sure you'll see some the next time you go overseas.

Lets talk about some :mahtroy: 's gathering in/out some weird "gaming parlors" and drinking in the streets... and it was only dudes... between the ages of 25-40. All looked super sketch and in groups, all of em had weird cheap booze too.

Italy isn't a safe picturesque place as pictured on top gear and the likes. There are tons of areas that are sketchy as fuck.
+1 and very picky where I go. Also if you want Italian and nice/safe and clean hit Southern Switzerland around Lugano. Quick trip over to Bellagio and the lake area, get yo Italian groove on and back to Lugano to chill. Worth it.
