    Does Everything Right With No Pretension

    The CC does all the basics really well and with a dash of sportiness and style. I've had my 2015 CC-R 2.0 6MT for five years and it's been as reliable as a wood stove. Exterior styling won't age. Interior is Germanic with form following function -- nothing fancy. Engine is torquey and responsive. Ride is smooth and compliant. It soaks up bumps without feeling cushy or isolating the driver from the road. Handling is sharp and precise. Highway mileage is in the high 30s. It doesn't proclaim status, but if you're into artful subtlety it's a satisfying drive and ownership experience.

    A very reliable vehicle to own

    This is a real sports car with good performance and reliability and it is fast for a turbo 4. The inside is roomy but tight because of the styling. Overall I was well pleased.

    Great Grand Tourer

    I love this Car! its a great grandtourer, nice and sporty and fast, good comfortable seats and ride. the interior is spacious. head room is a little lacking and the trunk is acceptable but not huge. the lane keep and collision avoidence are great and make it great for commuting. gas mileage can easily get the claimed MPG or less if you are having fun in the car! the only real downfall is the tires. VW known issue, they cup if you dont rotate the tires often. every 5K miles.

    Buen auto por fuera...

    Por fuera el CC luce espectacular. Por dentro se siente como subirse a otro auto de menor precio y categor�a. VWG debe repensar ese modelo. Por dentro necesita m�s fuerza! M�s dise�o acorde a su precio.

    Great styling and performance.

    Just the car I wanted. A fun car to drive, terrific acceleration, wonderful handling, and looks to kill. The rain-sensitive windshield wiper works like a charm. Great interior design.

    Sexy German Car and a Bargain

    The VW CC is not a well known vehicle. It's a good looking german 4 door coupe. When I tell people what I bought, they haven't heard of it and I like that. It's not cookie cutter. It's packed with features and technology and styling like a CLS Mercedes for less than half the cost. Apple car play works so much better than the uConnect I had in my last car.
