Best Car for the money
If you are looking for a sedan look no further, this is by far the best sedan you can buy for the money. Just a word of advise, if you are in the Northeastern Ohio area, check out Dave Walter VW in Akron. This is the best VW dealer in the area. I have never had such a pleasant car buying experience.
Fun but not worth the money
The car is less than 2500 miles when the engine broke down. It was a manufacture defect, it needs to change all four "coils"!?. The parts was so back up that the dealer only change one. Handling of the car is great, but the initial acceleration is very very slow (even a Hundai Elantra accelerate better) though after 25mph the car pick up speed and has a strong kick. Very nice panal and indicators. But not enough cup holder, even less storage space in front. Imposible to set up cell phone charger since the cigaret lighter is directly infront of the auto shift knob, need more space or move it somewhere else!

A true winner
Everything good you read about the Passat is true, and then some. Fantastic styling, performance, reliability, and service. Buy one!
Best Car out there
By far the best car on the market today. If you are in the market you should get one soon from Fairfax VW.
50%-50%
i have this passat for more than 3 years so far replaced windshield wipers motor, front cv joints with axle, just got whole cd/radio player broken, some emission sensors and have been driving with "check engine" light on for 2 years (due some stupid emission sensors!) and battery replaced! so you should really consider this-this car is bad on electronics! otherwise just keep up with maintenance and you'll be good!
