2011 Volkswagen Touareg VR6 Sport 4dr SUV 4WD (3.6L 6cyl 8A)
Our Touareg was our first VW, but not our first SUV. Previously we had a Ford Explorer and a Toyota Highlander. When looking for our new car, we looked and drove several, including the 4runner, Q5 and X5.
The Touareg, hands-down trounced our previous suv's when it came to handling, performance and comfort. Our '06 Highlander drove like a minivan compared to the tight feel and zippy … performance from the T-reg.
When it came time to choose, the VW experience, and price/feature ratio won out over our other options. 4runner - too much like a truck, and the price point when compared to Audi/BMW was perfect.
Overall, this vehicle is fun to drive and gets good mpg for its class.

I was a Lexus RX owner for the past 10 year.
Drove 2000, 2004, 2006, 2008 & 2009 models and HATED them for as long as I had them all.
I wanted a change.... When passing by VW dealer I saw this Beauty on the front lot I took if for a test drive that moment. It was Sport V6.
It was OH MY... after just 5 minutes of driving
I test drove MDX, RX350, X5, Mazda9 and 2011 Grand Cherokee.
Non of … these came close (money vs what you get)
I picked up my Touareg Sport
V6 for more then 6K off MSRP ($39200) on 12/22/10
For all folks on the market for 5 pass. SUV
MAKE YOURSELF A HUGE FAVOR
PLEASE CHECK IT OUT AND TAKE IT FOR A DRIVE!!!! THATS ALL :-)))
Good Luck & All The BEST!!!!

2011 Volkswagen Touareg VR6 Sport 4dr SUV 4WD (3.6L 6cyl 8A)
11/7/10 - For the last three months I have been test driving every mid size SUV from Toyota to Porsche. I test drove the new Touareg last Thursday and drove it home that afternoon! It's like you know when it's " right ".... and it was. It's everything that I have been looking for and more. Luxurious appointments, comfortable, and a perfect vehicle for the mountains and city driving. I … bought the Lux TDI in Gallapogos Gray with black interior. It's awesome.

2011 Volkswagen Touareg VR6 Sport 4dr SUV 4WD (3.6L 6cyl 8A)
I only have 600 miles on the vehicle and all of it has been in town.
I plan to update this as I get more miles.
No opinion on mileage, road noise, ride on long trips, reliability, service,
and handling in the snow, Yet.
I have ordered the towing package but it hasn't come in yet.
I don't use the phone bluetooth.
