All in all this is a great car. Very comfortable ride. Great premium sound. The turbo helps a lot with acceleration and gas millage. Love the mpg. All the bells and whistles you could ask for for this size and price.Apr 27, 2015

Fun to drive. But not near enough cargo space for a family of three with a big dog. I often find that I can't even fit all my groceries in the trunk. Gas mileage is so-so. Requires premium gas. Nice that VW recommends changing oil only every 10k miles. But requires full-synthetic oil which is expensive. VW customer service is very good.Apr 25, 2013
