Sure it's fast, but good looking too!
The Volkswagen Passat W8, which was only imported into North America for two years (2003-2004,) is one of the rarest VWs in the market. Powered by the W configuration eight cylinder four-liter engine, the W8 is undeniably the quickest, baddest little rocket to ever roll out of Wolfsburg. Incorporating every available option that year, full leather, top-end entertainment, automatic everything, six-speed manual transmission, 4 Motion all-wheel drive and on and on, this Passat has it all. Sure, it was a $65,000 VW when it first hit the street, but available now on the used market for under $8,000? Why not have some fun?

Hops right to it.
First and foremost, this Rabbit really hops. It's a very unique ride when you're on the streets. The trunk space is enormous and big enough to sleep in. It has lots of power for a little car. The two-door version is spacious enough to fit five people comfortably.

My Pocket Rocket
The engine in the 2009 Volkswagen Rabbit is responsive and powerful for its size. Gearing of the five-speed manual and the electronic throttle's aggressive programming help the Rabbit jump off the line like a scared, well, rabbit, and the 150-horsepower 2.5-liter inline five-cylinder engine delivers 170 pound-feet of torque. Yet, the Rabbit's fuel economy—often what counts for small-car buyers—is near the back of the pack, with automatic cars rated at 20 mpg city, 29 highway and the manual gearbox adding just 1 mpg. Unlike so many budget-minded cars using numbing electric power-assisted steering, the Rabbit's steering is actually communicative and downright lively. The ride from the 2009 Volkswagen Rabbit is taut, but never jarring. The front struts and independent rear suspension absorb big bumps with nary a crash or bang. Steering feels precise with a good on-center feel. Inside, the Rabbit's front seats give great support. The driver's seat helps you get comfortable with plenty of adjustability, but the controls are in three different locations: fore/aft at the right-front corner of the seat, a lever on the left side that raises and lowers the bottom cushion, and a big knob to change the backrest angle at the left rear of the seat. The quality of the materials is high. The view out is good, but the base of the windshield is rather high, a result of European pedestrian collision standards. The Rabbit four-door has achieved four-star ratings for frontal impact and five-star ratings for side impact from the federal government, but it's a Top Safety Pick from the IIHS, with all "good" scores.
