As has been said before: Welcome to the addiction.
+1 - Saw it in an ad in 1999, on a used car lot in 2004 (turned around on my way to work to stop and look at it) and wasn't able to get it out of my head until I bought one in 2008 (waited that long to pay off my existing car). Give in now, four years is agonizing.

Seriously though, Tom's right, give him the Passat and get yourself a VX. Just be prepared to spend plenty of time here doing research, and maybe a little more than usual on repairs (though probably not more than you would spend on a VW).
