Vehicle Profile: The 2012 Volkswagen Passat
See why the Passat was named 2012 Motor Trend Car of the Year.

It may not be a word, but there’s really no more succinct way to explain why the all-new 2012 Volkswagen Passat Sedan deserves to be named 2012 Motor Trend “Car of the Year” than to cite this completely new sedan’s “unbeatability.” The Passat has been tailored specifically to the tastes of North American car buyers, and Volkswagen has proven it believes in the Passat by building it here, in a brand-new Chattanooga, Tennessee plant.

Rewriting History
The most historically inaccurate films of all time.

Let’s be honest for a second – real life isn’t always as interesting as it is portrayed to be in movies. Characters in films never spend a solid 40 minutes trying to figure out online banking or sitting in traffic. It’s no surprise then that many a historically based film had to jazz up a thing or two to get people into the theater. Because let’s face it, who is going to pay to see Bill Brings his Daughter to Soccer then Does Some Light Yard Work Before Catching the Last Half of RoboCop on TBS?
