The automatic parking system isn't available for the R36 I'm pretty sure. The VW AU website has been updated with the details for the MY09, and only the standard Passat's get it. Also - by 250w color touch screen... what's the difference from the current unit which is touch screen?

Just gave a VW dealer here a call - MY09 R36 has NO changes, only the standard models have the new OIS and a few very minor cosmetic changes.
