I bought the cc because I loved the distinctively elegant design language and it is arguably the best budget car you can buy. What do I mean by this? Let’s discuss! The good - not expensive to buy, particularly when you consider what you get - precise german handling, tight cornering capability, decent fuel economy (I’ve been putting 87 instead of apparently suggested 93), great sound system, Mercedes and Lexus level smoothness, high quality minimalist interior and cool bucket seats, with very few of these actually seen on the road, people will think you spent a lot more than you actually did lol. The bad - random rattling from the interior and from the front suspension sometimes, which on the flip side is mostly the same, which says a lot when you consider I don’t slow down for speed bumps much lol. I have gone through an offensive number of tires, double digits for sure, the low profile doesn’t go well with freeze thawed New England roads. The low roofline may cause taller folks or people with joint issues a problem when getting in. Make sure to top up your oil every 1k because it does burn oil, especially if you like you enjoy your drives. Maintenance is more affordable than, say, a BMW, but almost double still what you’d spend on Japanese and American cars. Make what you will of that. You might save money opting for a CC over other Germans. Summary - I wholeheartedly recommend this head turner if you want a very pretty car that is genuinely enjoyable to drive, but don’t want to commit the sums it would cost to drive a Mercedes or BMW, without necessarily forgoing on the driving experience and looks.

I think I have a firm grasp on this car now... Great computer features, headlights are awesome, bluetooth and other techs are top notch. I have found SOME build quality problems: loose door bolt, some auto start issues on occasion and window squeaking when the weather stripping is met my the glass. Overall a great car with great mpg and gadgets. Be warned however, this is not a "drivers" car. It is comfortable and smooth but it IS NOT a fast car and it does not corner really well either. Finally, because of the soft suspension and low ride height, take it easy over speed tables... you CAN bottom out. Would I recommend this car to anyone, YES! Does it have SOME faults... yes.
My only regret was that it was leased not bought

3 years / 30 miles and there wasn't a thing wrong with it. It was actually heartbreaking to turn it in at the end of the lease. Everything I needed this car to do, it did extremely well. It was roomy, comfy, very stylish, practically luxurious, fun to drive, good on gas, and it never gave me a lick of trouble. Replacing this with a leased Jetta was like going to Arby's after dining at Morton's Steak House. While I lease that miserable car, I'm saving up to *buy* another CC.

I recently purchased the 2013 after owning the '12 despite my reservations due to esthetics, namely the grill because I think the grill screams 'Made in the USA' (Offense unintentional). The car seems louder and deliberate during acceleration and idling. I really enjoy looking at the 1" diameter difference in performance tires, but dislike the ride now. On the up side, my visibility at night has much improved with the LEDs. This seems to be the only time at which I am content with this decision.
