DonCherry is quite right. the volks passat is really a nice car, I've been driven this car a year, it works very well without any problem. I drove to quebec city, mont-tremblant at 160km/h,
the highest speed reached 220km/h. It's perfect.
1. VW's body is strong, it will protect you more while an accident happened. I've been experienced once in winter, I hit another VW Passat at 50km/h, wow, absolutely nothing, both of our cars.
2. Comfortable and roomy, stable while you drive over 180km/h, the engine works well.
