  • Convertible, Sunroof, Coupe {CSC} - 2007 Volkswagen EOS
    By -

    This car has all the qualities that I always wanted in a convertible: performance, power, good gas mileage, safety, and its fun to drive. The list goes on and on. Its like having the features of an Audi, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz with a VW price.

  • Love It! - 2007 Volkswagen EOS
    By -

    I had a 2005 Passat that I swore I would never sell. Then I drove an EOS one day while I was having my Passat serviced. I was hooked. Within 3 days I had one in my driveway. The car is a blast to drive, not to mention its really cool. And since they are still relatively new, it attracts a lot of attention. The way the trunk is configured, you can not see where the car ends. Mine came with Park Distance Control which at first I thought was lame, but after driving the car for a while, its a necessity.

  • Theyll think your rich! - 2007 Volkswagen EOS
    By -

    After having a 2005 PT Cruiser convertible and using it as a field vehicle, it was time for a "new car". My cruiser was mechanically sound but in pretty rough shape. With few convertible choices that a state worker can afford, I ran across a used EOS with a little over 20000 miles on the warranty left, yes the 07s had a 5000 mile bumper to bumper warranty. New ones do not. Its a silver essence with a black interior, the black interior is hard to find as most have the beige, for a less than tidy person do not get the beige. The hard roof system while opening makes the car look like a transformer and will get you lots of looks. After 1500 miles in 2 weeks, no problems. LOVE IT.

  • Loads of Fun - Great Value - 2007 Volkswagen EOS
    By -

    My Eos is optioned with the sports package, 18 inch wheels/Pirelli P-6s and 6 speed auto. It is great fun to drive. The cabin is quiet with the top up or down. It feels a bit quicker than the stated 0-60 times. It has a nice punch above 40 mph. It also has a nice balance between handling and ride. The handling dynamics are good enough to make the car fun, but not equal to BMW as some other reviewers have written. The engine/transmission set-up very responsive. The leather sports seats are well bolstered and very comfortable. I am taller and larger than average guy and the interior is very comfortable. I also looked at Volvo C70 and the VW is more fun and about $8,000 less expensive when optioned out. The Eos is a great car, great value, and loads of fun to drive.

  • A Fun and Practical Car - 2007 Volkswagen EOS
    By -

    I have been waiting for this one ever since the concept previewed in the auto shows. Last week, I grabbed one of only seven allotted to the dealer until later this year (maybe). The other dealer in town only had five. On my first drive to the bay area, I had three compliments while waiting to pay the bridge toll! Plan on spending about $36,000 out the door on the basic model with the auto stick and about $40,000 for the Sport/Luxury model. The car is quick, rides very quiet with roof down, has great steering, and the 17 inch wheels really help dampen road bump noise. It has a great sunroof too! The standard sound system is plenty and I got 31 mpg on my first tank of gas. All in all, this is a great car!

  • Delightful Ride - 2007 Volkswagen EOS
    By -

    I went to the VW dealer in Denver to check out a Jetta TDI Sportswagen and stumbled on the EOS. That was it. Drove it home that day. The ride is surprisingly comfortable. Very peppy 2.0L Turbo moves this convertible coupe along confidently on the freeway. I get 30+ mpg overall in my daily commutes which are 90% highway miles. In city driving, 27-28 mpg. This is my sole vehicle. My wife loves it. Audio system is suprisingly good & I added a Kenwood Nav deck. Ive owned my CPO EOS for 4 months now. Only problem was the cruise switch repl under CPO warranty. Trunk space is decent with the top up. I have to raise the top to retrieve items under the cargo limit partition.

  • Wow - Havin a Blast - 2007 Volkswagen EOS
    By -

    I just bought my Eos five days ago and I am having a great time with it. It is a lot of fun to drive with the stick. The retratable roof is a great conversation starter. It handles great with plenty of power.

  • Still having fun! - 2007 Volkswagen EOS
    By -

    I bought my 2007 Eos Lux used three years ago and have never regretted it. I love the way it feels on the road and the interior looks great and it laid out very well. Considering the car is 5 years old I havent really had any major problems with it. I had the timing belt done at 70K miles which is a bit early because it was in for a recall issue and they had the engine apart already. That saved me some $$$. Roof leaks often come up when talking about the Eos and I experienced them as well. I had a small leak at the A-pillars that turned out to be due to a disconnected drain. It was an easy fix and the car has been dry ever since.

  • Love it with some reservations - 2007 Volkswagen EOS
    By -

    I bought my EOS used, it had around 8,000 miles on it. It has been a blast to drive. I have had an issue with the top. The sunroof will periodically stay open when I close the top. The dealer had a very difficult time diagnosing. They think they have fixed it but not so sure. The back seat is too small for adults to travel comfortably but I did not buy it for passengers. This is my main transportation on a daily basis and I love it. I get approx 28mpg with combo of highway/city commute so cant complain.

  • Great so Far - 2007 Volkswagen EOS
    By -

    Ive owned my Eos for about 2 months now. I have NEVER enjoyed driving a car as much as this one. Im disappointed everywhere I go that the trip didnt take longer. I think about driving it all day. Yes, it has a couple of weirdnesses, a faint thumping sound sometimes when shifting, and the shifting isnt smooth when its cold. But litterally other than this, its the perfect car. It is honestly therapeutic to drive, and I find myself thinking up reasons to go places just to have more time behind the wheel. The top is totally sweet. When its closed, you can see the sky. When its open you can feel the sky and the moonroof is great for quick little breaks in the rain. Thanks VW
