The owner of the VW Passat 3B from ‘98 wanted something different for the car to. Easy to specify, but difficult to achieve. Thus, to have a car as different and easily noticeable, it opted for the idea of low-rider.
Without any doubt, this is one of the most interesting tunings we’ve seen on Passat. The idea of a low-rider sedan German is not very common, but it is out of the ordinary.
As can be seen in pictures, you may hardly recognize the Passat now. In the front we have a spoiler and the Passat 3C headlines like Audi’s A5, while the rear spoiler has been extended and the inscriptions on the trunk disappeared.
