That's a good looking ride. I'm a sucker for blue but the Wife had enough of people texting her wherever she went in her Wrangler. She wanted something plain such as silver or gray for the replacement. I have a blue and silver Ram, special order.
New car for us? Maybe.

Yeah, that car looked good. If I didn’t have that windshield issue I would have never get rid of it. It would fit third kid we had in the meantime and stuff for our road trips.
Ok, signed the paperwork about an hour ago, so it's ours. Well, my wife's. But I will wash it, maintain it, gas it, make sure to pay taxes and registration on time etc. etc., but if any of that isn't up to par, it will be MY car 
. I'm with @edyvw about the newer screen displays and interfaces. No idea why they did all of this when the "old" system was quite good. Oh well, at least there is a ton of videos on YT to teach this old dog how to operate stuff. I'm sure we will enjoy it regardless. Now, I have to clean and detail all over again to get it to shortyb standards (which falls way short of @slo town's).

That debate is at least 20 years old over on the BMW forums. My response is that if you trust the electronic fake oil pressure gauge, electronic fake temp gauge, the electrical gas gauge, and the electronic speedometer, etc. why don't you trust the electronic oil level gauge?The new thick vs thin debate (Sensor vs mechanical dipstick)
Who says I trust all that other electronic nonsense? Old skool FTW
.Dipstick will be here Tuesday.
The thick versus thin argument has two legitimate sides. The demise of dipsticks just sucks. For everybody.The new thick vs thin debate (Sensor vs mechanical dipstick)
A bit less than 6 years or 74,000 miles...got it.
I knew that, Do'h
Are any of these VW's comparable to the Audi Q7?
