Subject: RE: Jetta - Passat Anyone drive one of these? Not one of the cars you asked about - although it is a Passat, technically - but I drive a CC Sport. About to hit 10k miles and I absolutely love it, to the point where I look for reasons to take it out for a spin. The 2.0 turbo (combined with 6-speed stick) is quick, very responsive and I get great gas mileage, ~32-34mpg highway on 93 octane. The 4-seater layout is a deal-breaker for a lot of people, though, and to carry bikes I have to use our minivan (VW Routan). It's the first car I've ever owned that I've received compliments on from random strangers in parking lots, at stoplights etc. I had an '02 Jetta before it that ran fine, until my wife drowned it in a flooded street during a rainstorm last year, never ran right after that but it was a fun ride up to then. ETA - I had one window on the Jetta drop while driving, it sounded like someone threw something at my car and when I got home I noticed the window was down and wouldn't raise. Dealership took care of it the next day, and proactively fixed whatever the known issue was with the other windows too. Edited by WelshinPhilly 2011-09-20 12:20 AM
