When I looked at the Passat wagons, I found out that fitting the AWD caused the rear floor to be higher, decreasing cargo space. Just a thought.
The W8 is a pretty high end car, and didn't sell very well in the US. I can't believe it's going to be really great on gas. The narrow angle VW V6 is a nice engine, and even the 1.8l turbo is a great engine with excellent mileage (as long as you can resist stomping it for fun). Unless you're carrying a lot of mass all the time, the W8 may be overkill, and the 1.8l adequate.
