I got this car after my Corolla was totaled. I actually went to the dealership to look at a Hyundai Sonata when I saw the Passat. It was my first ever luxury car and I love everything about it, mostly. This car has so many cool features I've never had in a car before. I love the heated leather seats, the sunroof, and the all digital dash. At the time, this dash was the nicest, coolest thing I had ever seen. I never owned a car with a screen on the dash to digitally tell me my speed, tire pressure, outside temperature, and song/radio information. The car also came with a 6 cd changer which again, was cool at the time. The car has a very smooth ride. Although it is large and roomy on the outside, it handles like a smaller car. The steering, maneuverability and over control of the vehicle is just really pleasant. I could drive this car all day, everyday with no complaints.

In the mid-sized sedan category, I really liked how the Passat stood out in terms of styling and looks. The front end has an aggressive stance that reminds me of an Audi. The cabin is surprisingly big with plenty of leg room in the back. My 6'3" father-in-law commented on how much room he had the first time he rode in the car. The autoplay technology is outstanding and allows you to use the apps on your phone seamlessly with the car's infotainment system. It's nice to not have to flip systems between car and phone. The traditional VW touches like the analog clock are also cool.
