Decided to go with the CC

[arbour]

Hi guys I am now a passat driver absolutely love the car don't know what I was thinking ignoring VW for so long my 2 previous cars were a land rover and a merc. The VW is hands down the best of the 3 the build quality is first rate and leaves MB for dead. Just wanted to know how many other cc drivers there are out there and what you guys think of the car?

cheers

I just went and had a look at the CC today. Great looking car and I was well impressed with the 125 TDI engine. Boot space is monstrous! The dealer made sure I had a good long drive too, which I appreciated. I'm starting a new job next month, so i'm going to do a salary sacrifice, bite the bullet and get one. Just not going to tell the missus how much I'll be paying or it'll be

Out of interest, did you manage to get any discount on it? The dealer is saying $61.5k drive away and that's before options!

(note: I also tested a Murano last week where I was given a drive of around 3 minutes. When I stopped the car she asked me what I thought of it...let's just say I'm not a shrinking violet in my opinions! She didn't even say goodbye when I got out hahahaha.).

G'day Arbour,

I have been driving my CC for around 6 weeks now. I must say I have been very happy with the decision to purchase same. The vehicle remains tight, have not had one squeek in the vehicle. On road behavour is great with the active suspension doing a pretty reasonable job when selecting the different settings. The best part about the car id the adaptive cruidse control fantastic for those freeway drives where speed varies all the time followed closely by the dynamic headlights.

White CC 3.6L, Adaptive Cruise, Cooled Seats, RNS510, Reverse Camera, Park Assist.

ps. Park assist puts a big smile on your face every time you use it and of couse DSG is great.

park assist = waste of money if you know how to park a car! lol

I am jealous I couldn't get the ACC on the R36 but the CC suspension is crap and way to high hence I went with the R36.

Good to see that you're enjoying your new car. I've been looking for a similarly specified car in Melbourne and hope you don't mind sharing what deal you got on it? (PM if you don't want it public).

I actually found the R36 suspension to be a bit firm. The R36 and CC V6 might have the same 3.6L VR6 engine and be based on the same platform but look and feel like quite different cars and probably will attract different buyers.

Rightly (or wrongly) I think Rocket is onto something about the CC suspension. On the sport mode it was tight initially but the rebound was out of balance. The comfort mode made me feel almost queezy and the normal mode was the best of the 3.

Obviously just an opinion.

The ACC was a nice feature however I would hate to become used to it, get into another car and forget it was normal cruise control

[wowser]

I am just the opposite, the R36 for me is too firm and too noisy for a daily drive. I am way past the boy racer stage and for me comfort, gadgets and reasonable performance are priorities.

If I actually have a rush of blood and feel the need for speed the composite clubman is my hoon drive. 300hp and 520kg = 0 to 100 in 3 sec. Goes round corners ok too.
