Great car! (One year in)
I bought the VR6 sport in September of 2009. Its been a very reliable car thus far (26000 miles in). No squeeks, creeks or window leaks. The V6 had plenty of power, at least for me. My wife calls it "the rocket ship" when she uses it. :) Mileage is spot on to the official specs. I'm getting 24-26 mpg overall on 87. The ride is good. It can feel a little harsh over very rough pavment, but with the 18" wheels and low profile tires, you have to expect that. Road noise is great around town, but gets a little loud at highway speeds (could be due to the tires). It handles great. Its a VW. What else can you say? Interior quality is excellent. Everything feels and looks solid. No cheapo plastic. I like the design and ergonomic placment of everything. No distractions and everything is easily reachable. Head and legroom are good, though taller people (I'm 5'10") may find head room a problem when getting in the car. It does have a low roof line, but once your in there is no problem. My only complaints about this car are the resale values. I expected better from a quality car like this, but demand must be soft. Lastly, bluetooth should have been a no brainer for the engineers at VW. Almost every competitor in its class comes with this "option" as standard. I hope VW learns from that mistake and makes it standard on every CC from now on.

Beutiful Car
I bought the 2010 R Line 2.0T with the 6 Speed Manual. I was looking at a 3 series stick. I drove an A4 3.0 Quattro for 5 years i loved that car. After looking at the bimmbers i would have to spend the same money to buy a used one for what i purchased the CC. Great car for the money. I get so many compliments on this car in 6 months that i have ever gotten in the Audi. The car is a little slow for me not too much power. You have to push the RPM's high in order to really get the power out. Overall i think its a great car great Gas Mileage beutiful lines. I would love a little more power but overall a great car.

CC Rocks
We love this car. We bought the CC Lux a few months ago and have been thrilled with the decision. Great features. Very comfortable with solid handling, strong acceleration and excellent gas mileage of 25 around town and 30+ on the highway. We have a cottage in northern Wisconsin and bought the CC to bring our trip cost down. Our other vehicle is a Toyota 4runner. Nice truck, but with the V8 it sucks gas. The CC gets almost double the gas mileage and so far has handled snow just fine. Looks great, handles great and solid performance. Buy one. You won't be disappointed!

Excellent Vehicle
I have now had this vehicle for just over 1 year and have put 12,000 miles on it. I pre-ordered it through a Military Sales outlet in Germany and took delivery after about two months(it is a US Spec vehicle). Buying it sight unseen I took an informed risk. I was intereseted in the standard Passat at the time and was ready to purchase one when I came upon the soon to be relesed CC. Overall I am very satisfied. The car has excellent road manners. The stying is distinct depite its resemblence to an SLS. I receive compliments often. I highly recommed the back up senssors as teh corners are hard to juge especially on the rear end. I have manged a couple scratches. European parking places are much tighter than in the US. Performance is great for a 4cylinder. I have had it up to 129MPH(governed) on the autobahn and it still has a couple thousand RPM to spare(will not get to do this once I get it back to the states). Ride is still solid at high speeds however, MPGs suffer severly over 85PH. 30+ MPG is reasonable if you keep it under 70 on the hiway. Heated seats work well and compensate for the fact that the air/heat is not dual zone on the sport. The six speed transmission is the best I have had and I prefer it over BMWs. Only outstanding issue I have is that I am still trying to get the bluetooth module through my local German VW dealer which was not availible when I ordered the Vehicle. The Best VW to date.

VW CC - Good Looking and Quick
Have had no problems in 11,000 miles. Reasonable fuel mileage for the way I drive. Great handling in the snow (reared in N. Wisc.) Like it that there is no model ID on the rear, keep getting asked and folks do 'Ohh and Aww' over this CC.

Awesome practicle car
The Volkswagen CC is extremely impressive, especially for the relatively low price. The car is fun to drive, extremely comfortable inside, well designed, and overall a well engineered car. The CC is a great all around car. I own the 2.oL turbo four which is a great engine. It has just the right amount of power and efficiency. When I want to, I can drive it like a sportscar and get some performance enjoyment from it, and when I'm cruising on the highway it gets great mileage. I've been able to squeeze over 34mpg out of a tank. The front seats are very comfortable, and the minimalist interior does very well on the car. The car is just packed with awesome small features: wow factors that you discover the first few weeks of owning the car. The backseat, despite being a "coupe" is nice and big, with two 6-footers sitting behind two more 6-footers in the front. Overall, I've loved every minute of driving the car, I can't find anything wrong to write about it. The only minorly negative thing is that sometimes I wish it had a bit more power. However, the practicality, styling, and value more than make up for that. I've had many people come up to me and tell me that the CC is one of the best looking cars on the road. Go drive one! You won't be let down!!

Most miserable experience I have ever had
This was my 1st VW purchase, things started out great, then the problems started, 1st took car in for scheduled service and a VW Campaign, scheduled this service 1 week in advance, upon arrival dealership advised they did not have the parts for the campaign, then 3 days after picking up vehicle noticed oil spotting on garage floor, took vehicle back to dealership, found oil plug gasket torn, replaced, 2nd, tires wore out at 23k miles, dealer refused to take care of, tire manufacture no help either, also the seat campaign again, this time parts were on hand however, mechanic broke another seat part, no stock, will need to take car back again once parts are received. The dealership after the sale turned into a nightmare, very hostile and combative. I have been a diehard Ford owner, the experiences with VW America and the VW dealership I purchased my CC led me right back to Ford where I traded off the CC for a 2010 Ford Fusion Sport, wont have to worry about the seats in the CC anymore.

Update
I reviewed my CC Sport in early May after just a few days of ownership (I bought it on 4/25/09) and I thought that I would provide an update. I still love the car. I have read reviews of people getting bad gas mileage but I have exactly the opposite experience. My car has the 2.0 I4 Turbo engine. My normal gas mileage is ~24.5 MPG, about 50% city and 50% highway driving. Last weekend I averaged 34.35 MPG on a 350 mile trip! My last car got 21 MPG so I am totally elated!
