Love this car!
Fast, handles well with smooth ride. I looked around a lot to find a V6 and found one with 10K miles on it - beautiful white car!
2nd Passat no issues
I replaced my 2015 Passat SE 1.8T with a 2017 Passat R-Line 1.8T. I put 90k on the 2015 in 2 years, not a single issue. I replaced it only because I love the look of the R-Line and got a great deal. The 2017 has proven to be just as reliable. I am driving less now, but still racked up 59k in 3 years. No issues whatsoever. Great looking car, huge backseat and trunk. We take the Passat on road trips over my wife’s 2018 Equinox SUV because we can fit more in the VW! Driving position is perfect and comfortable. Build quality is fantastic. MPG is fantastic. All around great value for a great looking reliable car.

Great Value in a very attractive car!
Have never owned a VW before. Had looked at Honda Accord, Mazda 6, Nissan Altima as well. I wasn't sure what I wanted but knew I was going to be looking specifically at mid-sized cars. I bought this car primarily for my wife, but do get to drive it on occasion. The seating is more comfortable than it looks, but I wish I could adjust the driver's seat a bit more by raising the front of the seat a bit more than I can. The mileage in our TSI is very impressive as we can achieve up to about 40 mpg on long drives with our speed maxing out around 60 mph. Winter driving delivers lesser fuel economy, but still very good. The climate control is great up front, but on cold winter days, it could use a bit more heat into the back seat. Our white R-Line with beige interior is the sharpest looking car we have ever had. We like how we have my wife's phone synced to the car's navigation system and screen on the dash. The brakes have a bit of a different feel to them versus our domestic brands. They just seem to be more sensitive to pressing. Not a good thing or a bad thing. It is just a bit different than our other vehicles.

Great Car
I brought it from Avis Car Sales Morrow Ga. They are on point with service and will work a deal with you. The car is a smooth ride owned a honda and toyota but love the pick up in the turbo. It is a clean car. Thanks Avis Team in Morrow Ga.

Thought about it. Decided no.
Worst thing was the lag on take-off. The gearing of the transmission is really not right. The offered models make little sense. If you want the carplay option you have to pay for a sunroof, too! Or get the R which is unavailable. Not to mention how offensive the car sales process remains.
