Pictured is our one owner 2006 Volkswagen Passat 2.0T. This Passat sports a 6 speed automatic transmission which shifts flawlessly as well as a gas sipping 2.0 turbo charged engine which will throw you back into your seat. This car has 132K miles and has been impeccably maintained and we have all of the maintenance records since the car was purchased to prove it. This car was dealership maintained for the first 5 years and then maintained by the Magic Mechanic on Lee Road in Orlando. This car has been regularly serviced by the Magic Mechanic using Amsoil synthetic oil products both in the engine and transmission, as well as Amsoil Antifreeze service. The Air Conditioning system will freeze you out and, in addition, has been serviced with ICE 32 to enhance cooling and longivity of the a-c system. The timing belt was changed last year, and all four of the struts, as well as the front and rear brakes were changed earlier this year. The 215/60 R 16 tires are almost new, and have less than 4K miles on them. To say this car is in excellent condition is an understatement. The gray leatherette interior is virtually flawless, as is the dark blue metallic exterior. The sun roof works perfectly, as does the AM/FM satellite radio with an integral 6 disc CD changer.
If you are looking for a "new" car without the the new car price, then you have found it here. A review of the 2006 PAssat 2.0T is listed below. By the way, this car has been garage kept since we bought it. Any questions simply ask!!!
On the Road: Turbo engine is beyond impressive
To describe the 2006 Passat's 2-liter turbocharged engine as impressive is an understatement. Rated at 200 hp plus 207 lb./ft. of torque at 1800 rpm, it hits 60 mph in 6.9 seconds with the 6-speed manual, 7.4 seconds with the 6-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission. Power delivery was instantaneous in the automatic version we drove; it even had a pleasant sound unlike most 4-cylinder engines.
The fully-independent suspension (McPherson concept up front, multi-link in rear) provided safe, secure cornering but we noted that road rumble was very audible on poor surfaces. A VW engineer who joined us at dinner explained that the inevitable compromise between ride and roadholding was prejudiced towards the latter in order to maintain a German driving tradition. I wouldn't dispute his choice but some noise-sensitive North Americans may.
Visibility is excellent, the steering wheel adjusts for height and reach, instrumentation is easily read excepting some digital figures. Passats always featured responsive steering and the new model, even with an electrically-assisted system, is no exception. That, plus 4-wheel ABS disc brakes with brake assist and standard electronic stabilisation system, combined to make this mid-size sedan a truly fun car to drive.
Journey's End: Passat's at the top of Phil's list
2006 Volkswagen Passat 2.0T: Looks good, drives great, what's not to like?
With a high-tech, full-featured car like the Passat, it isn't possible to list all its attributes, which is why we give you general impressions. And what impressed me, aside from the driving dynamics, were attributes like the roomy rear seat; ease of access; deep pass-through trunk; 8 airbags; crash-active headrests; tire-pressure monitoring; center armrest with cooling storage; leatherette seating areas that feel like real leather: all things most meaningful to the average driver.
An extensive option list offers Danish-built Dynaudio sound; 10-way power driver's seats (happy now, Trevor?), parking distance warning front and rear (only with the 3.6 liter V-6 engine), rain-sensing wipers, headlights that turn with the curves, and on and on.
Getting back to those general impressions I would have to say that I truly enjoyed driving the new Passat. It looks good from the outside, continues the VW reputation for superior dashboard design and the nav system is superb.

VW budget sub-brand stuck in limbo over VW standards, costs
Sat, 01 Mar 2014Reports in October 2012 claimed Volkswagen had begun investigating the creation of its own budget brand. This came after having failed to purchase Malaysian car company Proton or produce a meaningful partnership with Suzuki, and after watching Renault-Nissan make piles of euro on Dacia and plot the return of Datsun.
For VW, more important than the question of what to call it was how to build it profitably and in a way that didn't damage the VW brand. According to a report in Autocar, a satisfactory answer still hasn't been found. The hurdle is how to hit "'necessary' quality and safety levels" at the price points needed to make the venture worthwhile. At the time of the 2012 report, German outlet Der Spiegel said VW was trying to get prices down to 6,000 to 8,000 euro ($7,784 to $10,379 US), about two thousand to four thousand euro under the price of the VW Up and in line with the cost of a 6,790-euro Dacia Sandero in Germany.
In March 2013, VW announced, "We want to bring a true budget car to the market in China in the foreseeable future," the most concrete move in that direction after years of planning to make a decision. Working with local Chinese maker FAW, it was predicted that the vehicle in question would appear around 2016, but as of November last year a final vote on it needed to wait until this year because "We are still working on the cost side" and profit possibilities for a car that "has to be durable, it has to be precise, it has to be safe."
Car companies may need to start curbing model proliferation
Mon, 17 Nov 2014Looking at the current automotive landscape, especially from German makers, you quickly get the impression that less definitely isn't more. BMW alone offers its 3 Series platform in practically every segment possible, including the regular sedan and 4 Series Gran Coupe, which would seem to be direct competitors. Porsche might be the winner, though, with 20 different variants of the 911 listed for sale on its US website. However, some of this model madness might be reaching an end as companies begin cutting back spending or shifting money to other priorities.
According to Yahoo Finance, the offerings from the German automakers are up 25 percent over the past three years to over 200 models in Europe. The peak is expected to come around 2018 at 230 separate vehicles, according to consulting company PwC.
Amazingly, BMW, which is among the poster children for this model explosion, might be changing its tune. "I'm sure there will be points in the future where we look at certain cars and say, 'Maybe we need to think differently now,'" said head of sales Ian Robertson in an interview, according to Yahoo Finance. The statement certainly sounds shocking coming from a company rumored to have 23 front-wheel-drive vehicles all using a single platform on the way.
VW Golf GTD wagon makes us swoon ahead of Geneva reveal
Thu, Jan 29 2015The European market is just crammed with power wagons we can't get our hands on: big ones like the Audi RS6 Avant and Jaguar XFR-S Sportbrake, but also little ones like the new Mercedes CLA45 AMG Shooting Brake, Skoda Octavia RS and Seat Leon ST Cupra. Now there'll be one more, and as you might have guessed, it comes from the Volkswagen Group. At the upcoming Geneva Motor Show, VW will present the new Golf GTD Variant. And if you're wondering what it's all about, it's all right there in the name: those three letters tell us it's a performance diesel, and the Variant name tells us it's a wagon (which we'd more readily recognize as the SportWagen on this side of the Atlantic). So there you have it: a performance-oriented diesel wagon, but not one we're never likely to see on American roads. If you ever did see one up close, though, you'd find a 2.0-liter turbodiesel four under the hood with 181 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque – enough to send this nimble oil tanker to 62 in 7.9 seconds, all the while returning over 53 miles per gallon (on the lenient European cycle, anyway). Along with the engine, VW has thrown in other GTD performance-minded bits, including a sports suspension and progressive steering. Visual telltales include unique front and rear bumpers, grilles, 17-inch alloys, blacked-out roof rails, smoked taillight lenses and an interior with plaid sports seats, stainless steel pedals... the works. European buyers will be able to enjoy all this and more while hauling all their stuff down the Autobahn, passing gas station after gas station in oil-burning bliss. World premiere of the new Golf GTD Variant - The perfect all-round package: sporty, economical, comfortable and spacious - Launch set for Geneva Motor Show Since 1982 Volkswagen's GTD logo has stood for Gran Turismo Diesel, with its promise of sporty yet economical motoring. Now for the first time, the GTD initials grace the Golf Variant, which like the Golf GTD, boasts the 184 PS (135 kW) TDI engine. The new Golf GTD Variant is set for its world premiere at the Geneva Motor Show, and is available to order as of now at a price of 31,975 euros. The Golf GTD Variant* is excellently placed to establish itself as an iconic long-distance cruiser.
