Finally, a brief mention on the VW website.

Pity there's no information and the "more" link is broken!

Pre-eminent Power
Get a firm grip on the most powerful production Passat ever built, with a sprint time of 1-100 in 5.6 seconds for the sedan and 5.8 seconds for the wagon. The 3.6 litre, naturally aspirated V6 engine pumps out an impressive 220kW of power, enabling a robust 350Nm of torque. Channelling all that power, the latest 4MOTION all wheel drive system ensures your maximum stability and cornering control at all times.

Don't worry, I'll be there too as well at some stage. I'll try to get as many photos as I can before my crappy camera drains its' batteries. I'll probably spend most of the time loitering around the Ferrari stand though.
Can't wait until the R36s' start to get delivered and we can start to here some feedback.

Can any of you guys who are going to see it before me find out if there is a "flapper" similar to that on the R32?

I don't know how you'd crawl under the car without being kicked out though
