Looked at one today. Launch edition 4 motion V6
Nice- all blacked out and the fake exhaust finishers do look great even though
Only had one in the showroom.
I never had a VW as I always bailed on concerns- you know.
And I was surprised VW wants to deal on a new model too.
So....................
To a rookie VW bloke, The 3.6L engine- what should I expect from it and the 8 spd Auto.
Any oil favorites etc. I know the listed EPA figures ain't so stellar but for the money it is a nice ride.
Not looking to get into a bash fest as I understand it's new and it could-will have issues. The one I had seen was nice but I like to get another color and just a few more options plus wait a bit. The V6 is so lost in the engine compartment I had to get out my binoculars to find it
Oh I did get reverse sticker shock too. No wonder VW is selling- most of the cars are very cheap. Jettas cost about nothing compared to others in the segment.
