Incorrect those are made by HPA and start at a $25,000 USD Funds option on top of the original vehicle purchase price.

You stated we will never see these, well I have been to see the Jetta before SEMA and at SEMA also been for a rip in it too. Glenn is a good friened of mine and very well known around HPA. Here is the Toureg they did too!

Correct the conversion starts at $25000 USD Funds and up estimated final pricing is not yet availble! Here is a link to there R32 conversions offered in the past.

Really.. I stand corrected... so for the price of a base Jette or even a used one and 25000 US = 28,975 CND I can have a 550 HP beast...

Not bad....

Exactly my thoughts, dont like the FWD of the Jetta with all that powa but the AWD Passat sure is nice.... What about reliability?

I would assume it's pretty decent when they built the AWD Beetle with just over 500hp their goals were for it to be reliable with just over 40,000km on the clock now I would say they have achieved that.
