  • Mixed Bag - 2004 Volkswagen Phaeton
    By -

    My first foray with a Volkswagen has been a mixed bag. From the first test drive, I knew I wanted this car. The handling, acceleration, and performance have been great. The car has more than lived up to its engineering reputation. Unfortunately, the electrical issues I have experienced have outweighed the joys of driving the car. When the weather is cold, the cars sensors indicate that the car is overheading, even though it isnt. The dealer tells me that they are aware of the problem, but they cannot fix it. On occasion, the dashboard electrical system freezes. Shutting off the car and restarting doesnt help. It eventually goes back on, but I never know when. This car has too many issues!

  • The best VW ever - 2004 Volkswagen Phaeton
    By -

    Truly an unparralelled car for the money. Owned VWs for a long time and this is the best one ever. Smooth power, beautiful interior. I would buy another if I could afford it.

  • Outsanding Machine - 2006 Volkswagen Phaeton

    This car is the epitome of understated elegance. Since Ive previously owned the A8L, 740IL, S430 and 3.5RL but yet the Phaeton has been the most refined and pleasant of them all. I have had fewer gremlins show up and the service experience has been excellent.

    By -

    This is quite shocking about a car with a vw on it,I had pretty much wrapped up a deal with Audi for an A8 then i figured ill test drive the Phaeton boy am i glad it knocked my socks off,without a doubt it will blow away Mercedes BMW and Audi and forget Lexus. Simply put this is the car before Maybach and Rolls
