Just test drove my first Touareg the other day. 06 EVIL Special Edition at my local dealership. Really loved it, BUT, before I commit I do have a couple of questions about possible new features in the 07 models. Of course the dealership didn't know the answers...

1. XM or Sirius? - is it offered
2. Bluetooth? - is it offered
3. new V6 engine with HP approaching the current V8, but with better mileage. For those with any opinions (subjective or objective) should I wait for this?

The new V6 is rated at 280hp. I don't know about the SAT radio options other than if the vehicle did have it, it would be Sirius because that's who VW is playing with these days.

I talked with Jaime at VWV today and he told me the new V6 makes a world of difference!!!!

the new V6 is a 3.6 FSI engine

The 2007 Treg is amazing, just got mine last week. The engine is upgraded to 3.6 & before it was 3.2.

Hi pleasant_tree. Where are you that you've already gotten a 2007? According to my dealer they aren't due for a month or so.
