Tough luck. Another factor that you need to consider then. So they have totally stop the production for the current ones.

Yeah guess so. I wonder hows the 2012 Volvo S60 T4 1.6L Turbo (180Hp and 240Nm torque) with a 6 speed Powershift gearbox. Launched in Aug 2011 and costs approx RM 225K (with insurance) which is about RM32K cheaper than the Passat CC Sports (2011 model).

if may 2012, then suggest u go for the new facelift, but not sure later how much the facelift model will cost...

volvo s60 and cc are totally different feel... if money is not a factor, still go for the cc (and make sure you deal with a good VW outlet/salesperson)

happy purchasing!

Pre-FL CC looks nice and sporty, and when FL was first revealed I didn't like it.

But the FL CC has grown on me. I'm starting to like the corporate feel it gives out. But still has the four-door coupe sporty-ness. One of the best looking cars I must say.

Hope they release a 3.6 V6 R-Line model for the FL, my dad looking to replace our 525i, and I think its a suitable replacement.

I have a CC at home. Build quality is good, just like what you would expect a VW would be. It drives ok, but it's a heavy car... you will most definitely feel the weight whenever you are driving in the city itself. One final thing that I hate about the CC is the steering, it feels numb... I believe it's the same for all VW cars.

If I get to choose again, I will most probably go for S60 T5 in red... it's a real head turner, expecially the rear, or maybe it's just me.

I find the new 3 series interior to be too plasticky for me. Doesnt give u the premium feel. Plus both front and rear seats are still cramped despite the slight increase in dimensions over the previous model. The front passenger seat is more cramped than before. Driving dynamics should be good but comfort is downgraded. Not the kind of mix i was expecting from a BMW.

U want good discount n u expect 2012 model?
There should be 2 types of discounts. 1 for the 2011 model and 1 more since its a model due to be phased out. BMW was offering up to RM15K discount and 0% interest loan schemes for their 2012 models so i dont see why VW cant do something more especially since their current batches are 2011 models.
