To add more info. The BMW is paid for and any difference between the trade and purchase price would be paid in cash. Financially speaking the only real difference is laying out a big chunk of money now or chipping away at the Bimmer's issues.
I tend to have a five year rotation with cars and don't really want to break that, hence the consideration of a mostly lateral move. For some reason I feel like the passat is a safer bet because of the full service history and the warranty (which expires at about the right time in the 5 year cycle). One additional point with the VW is that it has the TSI engine so it has a timing chain rather than a belt.
