Good advice, I'll keep that in mind. I'm just hoping that at least with the 2.0 Highline I wouldn't have to worry about problems like with the dry clutch.. but then I've heard stories from past VW owners already getting huge problems even after only using for 3-4 months. Hope to hear feedback from new passat b8 owners.
Yup.. until 31st March if I'm not mistaken. The sellers keep saying VW will no longer reduce price kaw-kaw like they did last time in order to protect their new cars' second hand value.. but seems like this trade-in rebate thing is another way for them to still reduce price to sell unsold stocks.

I'm still yet to see any new Passat B8 on the road... I wonder if sales are really that bad for them or there's some problems in getting the cars ready.

Yeah
