I have had several Audi's in the past. I would put this on a par with the quality level of the Audi. If it were all wheel drive, you wouldn't know the difference. It feels more solid than my previous A4 Avant...the ride and handling of this new Passat is second to none...extremely happy with the car.
Third One is a Charm too

This is my third VW and my 2nd Passat. My first Passat being a 2004 GLS 1.8 turbo. Last weekend I wrecked my '04 in a 60 mhp accident I walked away with only a small cut on my right wrist from a chain I was wearing, the car was totaled. The other car (a 4-Runner was a mess too) that being said I started looking around for another car to buy, with all the deals today IE: employee pricing and 0% interest I checked out almost every maker of cars in the $25,000 to $30,000 range. Nothing out there compares with a Passat unless you want to spend twice as much on a new BMW. The new '06 Passat seems to be a totally differant car then my '04 model. It drives much smoother, faster, it feels like a Mercedes-Benz. Try this car first!

Put simply, I am in heaven with this car. I have always wanted a fine German automobile but didn't want to pay the $30,000 plus price tag for a BMW so I settled for fine Japanese automobiles instead. First, this car is not in the same class as the Altima, Camry or Accord...it really is more in line with the Maxima and Avalon and should only be compared with those. If someone had taped over the VW emblem on the wheel and asked me to drive it without knowing what is was, I would have said Mercedes or Audi without a thought. This car is a class act, looks every inch a German sport sedan and handles like a truly fine European sedan. A loaded out 3.6 could go toe to toe with a BMW 5-Series. this car is awesome!

Best car ever owned. Bought for the safety features, 30+ MPG, four adults capacity and could not be more pleased. Using mid-grade gas, average 33 MPG in easy driving and 25 when pushed hard. No reliability issues whatsoever. Great driving experience feeling like a much more expensive car. Very stable and cruises at 85 without feeling sensation of speed. Surprised by the power of the Turbo 4; more surprised at the combo of power and excellent gas mileage. Major complaint is the original equip Goodyears slipped badly when wet / cold. Bought a set of dedicated snow tires for my snowy CT winters and replaced the summer tires with Continentals -- problem solved. I'd buy again!
The best of class

Just got the new Passat few weeks ago and I absolutely love it. Interior design is impeccable, outside it looks awesome as well. No resemblance to Toyota whatsoever (some people saw Coroll in rear end, beats me where they got that from; put the two cars side by side and see for yourself). The 2.0T engine is all new and has gobs of power and great torque curve. The car is also very quiet, even at high speeds. There is no competition in this class for this car; Camry and Accord can't even hold a candle to it (Accord especially, with even A/C optional), tons of standard luxury features. Automatic transmission is finally up to par (previous models had annoying kick to it).
