2015 Volkswagen Passat -
I love my diesel Passat. The interior is just the right space; I tested a Jetta, and it was just a little too small. I'm 6', 195 lbs.--not huge, but need a little space. Features I love include the mileage (usually around 42 MPG), the back-up camera (which is clear in day or dark conditions), the moon roof, and the heated leather seats.
Story
We drove this car on a long road trip and had a blast, enjoying the long range and easily adjustable seats.
Pros
Mileage and visibility. The windows have great distribution, enabling you to check mirrors and windows before passing or a lane change. Handling is very good. Powered seats are excellent.
Cons
A little low to the ground, and the visor clips are a little on the cheap side. A/C fan is a little underpowered, but the system cools well.
1998 Volkswagen Passat - Great college car
I loved my VW Passat. The previous owner had taken excellent care of it, so it was in great condition. Perfect college car for me and worth the investment.
Story
I do remember all of my friends being jealous of my gas mileage and convenience. In college in a state where public transportation is lacking, this was a great way to make money on trips to/from airports.
Pros
As a student, it was important to have a roomy car that was good on mileage. I was able to move my entire dorm room in a single trip in that car.
Cons
Because it is a foreign car, some parts/fluids were a bit expensive to acquire i.e. transmission fluid. However, that was hardly necessary as my car was in great condition.
