cool car. some draw backs

2009 Volkswagen CC Luxury 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

Review

Style is obviously good. But the interior (radio and environmental) is not that impressive. The fan comes on full speed with a twist of the temp control and other buttons/knobs... I find it pretty annoying. The leather seems pretty cheesy. If you put something lightly heavy on the seats it show an indentation forever. I have the std. Speaker system installed. The sound quality is not horrible, but its pretty bad. The speedo is also off by one mph. At night the interior lights do night dime enough. It gets pretty bright once your eyes adjust to dark.

Favorite Features

gets a lot of looks. good mileage. sport feature for transmission. heated seats.

Suggested Improvements

radio set up and speakers. environmental controls and system. auto wipers are way to sensitive. i would not recommend the black interior; it looks good, but shows every little rub and piece of dirt/hair/grass. shorten the body length.

Review

I started looking at this car because of it's looks and also I like the idea of having a coupe-like sedan. The most impressive thing's about my CC so far is the build quality, the attention it receives and the fuel economy (avg 28).

Favorite Features

Sport Seats, Low speed turning lights, Quietness, Sport Steering wheel, Feels like it has more than 200 HP.

Suggested Improvements

Make Xenon & Dynaudio standard.

I love this car

Review

I usually suffer from some buyer's remorse when I buy a car, but not this time. I just bought this car to replace an Infiniti I30T and I couldn't be happier. I had test driven the Lexus ES, BMW 3 series, Maxima and a few other cars and chose the CC for its styling, peppy engine (the 4-cylinder 2.0T is much quicker than the 6 cylinder I had on the I30), and price in comparison to other cars that were less sexy, had fewer features and were $5k to $10k more. I get more compliments on this car than others I have owned and people often wonder what type of car it is. I would definitely recommend (and have recommended) this car to others.

Favorite Features

-It's extremely comfortable and well designed from a driving perspective (controls are easy, seats a awesome); -Gas mileage (I average about 28 mph according to the computer) -Style - it is so much better looking that many higher priced cars -Price ('09 CC Sport Luxury with Nav for $29k)

Suggested Improvements

None right now.

Water Retention (rear doors)

2009 Volkswagen CC Sport 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

Review

I've had my VW CC for 7 months now and I'm still in love with it. Not only does it perform and ride well, it's an attention getter. However, the issue of water retention in the rear doors is annoying. With every heavy rain, I'm opening the rear doors to release the water, and checking the floor for wetness.

Favorite Features

I'm impressed with the the sleek exterior design.

Suggested Improvements

Rear door water drainage, side view mirrors are too small. There are blind spots (especially on the drivers' side).

Fun & reliable car with water issues

2009 Volkswagen CC Sport 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6M)

Review

I have already put over 10,000 miles on my new VW. I searched for awhile before purchasing it. I looked at new Honda Accord, new Nissan Altima, a used BMW 3 series and many more, but decided to go with the VW CC. This is the first VW I have ever owned. I have had it in the shop a couple of times already. The first problem was the speedometer was fluctuating. They replaced it with a new one, but I do notice it is off by one mile from the electronic display. The second and major issue is the doors are holding water. The back right side door especially is holding water. They are not sure how to fix it, but I did hear a service bulletin is coming out on this issue.

Favorite Features

My favorite features is the driving experience.

Suggested Improvements

Better build quality.

Great Car!

2009 Volkswagen CC Luxury 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

Review

This is a great car. $70k style with $30k price. 2lt turbo is adequate. 4- seat concept is nice. It developed a water leak inside but VW of America called me to bring to the shop to have it fixed. They know now the door seals accumulate water and are fixing. Great styling outside and inside. Good motor. turbo boost. Great seats. I'm 5'9" married no kids and car is perfect for us.

Favorite Features

Back-up rearview camera. Navigation system. Hard-drive disk in stereo. In- Dash screen. Outside styling is great. Seats are super gripping.

Suggested Improvements

More engine power. Paddle shifters.

Best looking car on the road today

2009 Volkswagen CC Luxury 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

Review

I looked at the Mercedes, BMW, Audi, and Acura's. The CC looks better than all of them, and has an incredibly large trunk, with a back-seat that also folds down. The technology package is awesome - even accepts a mini-flash card for music, and play's DVD movies while waiting. Another cool feature is the "auto-hold' brake. It automatically holds the car until you press the accelerator - great in rush hour traffic. This is a great car and excellent value. It's design will last at least 10 years or more.

Favorite Features

GPS, Hard drive player, DVD player, cornering headlights that auto-dim after the turn, style, seating, fold-down rear seat, large trunk, tech styling inside, awesome grill and rear deck. Perfect.

Suggested Improvements

Kids complain backseat is a little stiff after a long drive. Ride can be a little rough on bumps - EOS rides smoother.

Water Leakage

Written by: Stephen (Dallas, TX) on 09/16/2009

2009 Volkswagen CC Sport 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

Review

This is a wonderful car! VW has done a great job. Sleek,total head turner. I love that it has no model on the outside.One major flaw is water holding in the doors.Especially the rear doors. I noticed it immediately. After being washed or rain it holds in the doors. It will soak your shoes. Waited to have it address at the first free maintenance (10K). My area experienced a lot of rain a few days before taking it. I happened to notice the water is now inside the car. Back right floor board is soaked. I let the service man experience the woosh of water in the svc bay. They found water in the front as well. Now 3 days in the shop. They are clueless at this point. Send me suggestions!

Favorite Features

Suggested Improvements

Water leakage resolve. Option for a bit more pep under the hood.

Amazing Sport Sedan!! Test Drive it!

Written by: The Kingwood KId on 09/15/2009

2009 Volkswagen CC Sport 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

Review

The last Sports Sedan I owned was a 2004 Acura TSX. In my opinion, this car blows it away on performance and handling. From the satisfying grip of the steering wheel to its solid handling and acceleration, this car is a winner. I could feel the difference when I drove a new TSX and a 2010 Ford Fusion Sport. Two months ago I didn't know this model VW even existed. I can't understand why VW hasn't marketed this car like it has some of their other models. You have to test drive this car to really appreciate what it has to offer in terms of the driving experience. Simply amazing. I have had the CC for two weeks and have about 700 miles on the car with no complaints what so ever.

Favorite Features

My favorite features besides the two- toned interior are the Bluetooth phone system, which is now a standard feature on the 2010 model; and the radio system is excellent. I especially like the touch screen channel changer. The rubber floor mats capture debris before it gets ground into the carpet.

Suggested Improvements

My only suggestion is the incorporation of an integrated garage door opener as a standard feature.
