Thank you Misha for the lap, it's an experience I'll never forget! Note: The subwoofer did survive, it was held down by 2 straps but made it way loose after my previous lap. Now I know for next time to remove absolutely everything!

Going on a race track or even daily driving with an unmounted subwoofer is kinda stewpit

I also got the KW V2 street comfort suspension. It influences the behavior of the car noticeably. I like it and can recommend it .

smooth as silk

Sounds sick!

It's like VW's 350z with double-clutch transmission

The goodyear eagle f1 asymmetric 6 is actually really good tire for lite track days. I had laps with my friend Audi a6 c7 bitdi with these tyres and we where blown away that they performed better than his previous continental sportcontact 6. Not a fast tyre but safe, super friendly, and does not fade fast even on big heavy audi wagon. I think goodyear has nailed the f1 assymmetric 6, f1 supersport and supersport R.

I’ve been waiting to see a Passat on here and this one tops it💯. I’ve been thinking about getting my r32 Passat on your channel

Legends say Misha is still worried about the Sub.

VAG A5 platform cars from this era all handle great. I had an Octavia wagon, on good tyres and new springs/shocks and poly bushings it was one of the nicest sharpest steering cars for the road I've ever experienced. It too was 1.9 TDI. 🤣

Emotion ❣️😌

B6 R36 was always in my heart, but i was always afraid because of rust thing B6s are known for

I made that mistake once....didn't screw down the sub and ended up dinting the panels in the boot after a spirited drive with loud tunes until the sub cut out....ah memories

Beautiful and very special car

What a beauty. Love the R36.

I thought the speedo said 180 KPH. It took me just looking at the dash of my R36 to see 300 KPH. It’s in MPH on that one 😳

The Passat was always kind of a secret jewel of everyday driving. Very useful and performative.

Traffic was minimal, great for throwing wagon around, shame for that yellow flag though. I absolutely love these, unfortunately we never got them here, but did get to drive it once back home in Croatia. Come to think of it, these are available for imports this year now.

Sikh car!

Tips for all the people with subwoofers in the back of their cars: Stick some velcro on the bottem side of the casing. It sticks perfectly on the carpeting in your trunk. Won't move at all!

Please do not do this. It *will* come flying at you in a case of an accident. Always bolt your box down to a solid surface, or at least use ratchet straps to hold it tight in it's place. A sub box that isn't securely attached to the car is a box that doesn't play anyway. All the power will go into moving the box around, instead of moving air and sending sound waves through the box into the frame of the car

IMHO this has no audisteer because, despite being a haldex audi S3 VR6 inside a Passat, the weight proportion of the engine vs car the and the weight distribution of the wagon chassis results in a much better balance than VAG hot hatches/coupes/cabrios with VR6s.

Amazing car! And very forgotten about. I was really disappointed when they didnt cross over the R36 to the B7/B8 Passats. Never understood why! Everyone loves a good powerful estate.

It is important for Misha to make sure he doesn't kill anymore cars like he did with that old Volvo 240 (altho it wasn't really his fault, the engine isn't meant to do this in the first place) so I can see why he will say it more often. He still cares that people will have a way of getting back home in their own cars. Even for content, he knows it simply isn't right and it doesn't worth blowing somebody else's car engine for the views. I fully respect Misha for acknowledging everything.

Weird, when driving on track in Norway, you're not allowed to have loose objects in the car, like that subwoofer. But I guess they don't have time to check at the ring?

I have R36. I wish the DQ250 gearbox would handle more torque so I could put turbo to it.
