Owned this car for 8 years and it has served me well. Only real issues were with the emissions modifications leaking, but the VW dealership eventually fixed it (within the warranty), and that hasn't been a problem for years. Drive it mostly in town, so it might seem a little sluggish. Still gets 40-45mpg on the highway. One small ding on the passenger side (see zoomed in picture). Detailed and serviced June 2026.
