Used 2016 Volkswagen Passat for Sale in Cedar Rapids, IA

i love Passat from my first look at this car (i also test drove and like subaru legacy ), which is obviously very nice and very well built in every detail. design is both classical, detailed and appropriate. the ride is very comfortable and quiet. engine is enough for me or even pretty strong if you press pedal hard. very roomy for second row guests. i got Passat at a great price partly because of recent diesal scandal. although i love it, i was hesitant due to some bad comments. but once i get it, i fell in love it, and dis not have any issues so far. i can't comment on long term reliability, but the initial quality, original parts, assembly are in high quality and flawless. it is way way better than my toyota cars in terms of premium feeling and detailed consideration. safety is very good and actually my top reason to pick this car. mine passat is just the base model, but are still well equipped. compared to Passat, my toyotas (rav4, matrix) is much simpler, but has been proved to be super reliable. vw now has problems, but i think a company that builds such a nice, quality car (especially on the fundamental side which demonstrate its responsibility and professionalism), deserve my love and support. if other vw models are similarly competitive on pricing as my Passat, i may only buy vw in the future.

Okay I purchased a new 2016 Passat se on 09/19/2016. First off my prior car was an Infiniti m35 awd, so I really thought I would be giving up a lot of the features since the Passat was about $24,000 cheaper however its the complete opposite. The Passat has the apple car play which eliminates the need to spend thousands for a navigation, moon roof, led lighting in the front and rear, very smooth ride, roomy interior, and believe it or not a very powerful turbo engine. My most recent trip from charlotte NC to silver spring md averaged 36 mpg compared to the old Infiniti which averaged 21-22 highway mpg for the same trip. The fit and finish is similar to AUDI quality without the large price tag. Coming from an awd prior vehicle I barely even detect that I'm driving a front wheel vehicle. The car handles very great in both the city and out on the highway. Best of all I was able to get the Passat 5k less than the 29k sticker price. My only negative complaint would be the lack of door and arm wrist padding especially compared to my prior vehicle. What im most amazed of is just how good this engine is. This car on the freeway doesn't feel like any other 4 cylinder that I've ever driven. The car doesn't struggle at all in passing and will surely take off in a hurry. So don't let the horsepower on paper fool you!!! So long story short go test drive the Passat and I'm sure that you too will love it!

Recently bought a new 2016 Passat SE with Tech and Lighting Packages. I test drove many other vehicles before deciding on the Passat. The only factors causing any hesitation are the current resales values and VW's reputation of average (at best) reliability. The Passat drove and fit my needs much better than an Accord or Mazda 6. It really seems to fit between the BMW/Audi/Lexus level and the CamCord level. Great ride, incredible usable space, excellent infotainment features and functionality, strong MPG and decent engine/transmission performance. I was consistently disappointed in the Accord (interior and ride), Mazda 6 (noisy, rear seat space), Subaru Outback (power) with each test drive and was pleasantly surprised each time I drove the Passat. Either many auto critics really don't know cars or they don't appreciate the real-world transportation needs of most drivers. All cars have a few flaws so a couple criticisms - would be nice with a bit more torque in first and second gears. Seats are quite comfortable as is but throw in the seat from a CC and it would be magnificent. Yes, styling is a bit bland but I prefer a car with a bit more understated design. Put together, this car should be much higher on recommended lists.
