This Year's Model Updates:

The new Volkswagen Rabbit, which is the next-generation VW Golf, but with the nostalgic, U.S.-only name last used in the early 1980s, was introduced late in the 2006 model year. For the 2007 Rabbit, VW adds an auxiliary audio input jack for MP3 players, an optional Apple iPod-specific adapter and an optional tire-pressure monitor. Cruise control actuation has also been simplified.

Pros:
  • Comfortable ride, rich interior materials, many safety features, roomy interior, solid build quality.
Cons:
  • Can get pricey with options, handling and styling might not be sporty enough for younger buyers.

  • Great Car! - 2007 Volkswagen Rabbit
    By -

    This car is a very good buy. I bought this car in July 06 , had to wait some time because I purchased a 2007, not 06. I upgraded from 15 stock wheels to 16 inch alloy mag wheels, much better ride. Make sure you get ASR and stability control. 6 speed automatic tiptronic transmission is really cool! Seats are a little budget, but the car stops on a dime! Handles great!! Gas mileage is not too bad. Safety cage of vehicle is like one you would get on 35k or more vehicle. Transmission is a little tight between 20 mph and 40 mph, after that it takes off! Road noise not bad. Oil is synthetic from factory, car is made in Wolfsburg.

    Its a lovely car. I had one for the past 2 years and I cant say anything disappointing about it. Very fun to drive. I love the interior, especially the at night when I turn on the lights and see the blue and red well designed dashboard. I think its the best in its class!

  • An underrated gem!! - 2007 Volkswagen Rabbit
    By -

    As a 6 4" enthusiast, my requirements are elbow room and fun to drive. This car fills the bill! I have had several VWs,and many others in the compact class since 1955, and this 2007 2.5 is the best overall! Solid and secure at ANY SPEED. By far the best overall combination of features and useful sophistication per dollar. This car is better than the maker says it is. Brakes and handling as delivered are outstanding, the engine and driveline give performance well ahead of its price class. If this 2.5 were available with the 6-speed manual, it would be a best buy by far!

    This car is absolutely great. I bought it last week, and I have just crossed over 100 miles. I have a manual tranny, and it is simply a blast. to drive I cant wait for the break-in period to end. The stereo is loud with the stock ten speakers (the Honda Civic I drove had six, and its not even close). This vehicle comes with every safety feature you could want, and it is the base model. I would suggest getting rims. Mine came with 16 inch rims, and it just gives the car a better finish. This is my first new car. Anyone considering it against a Honda, Toyota, or Nissan needs to know the choice isnt even close. VWs feel more finished and polished. They are also much more fun to drive.

    Ive had the rabbit for just about a year and it has been awesome. Everything about the car is great. Have not had any problems and made a trip a long road trip and the ride was very comfortable and smooth. definitely prefer this car.

  • Super Safe - 2007 Volkswagen Rabbit
    By -

    After three months of driving my 5-speed, two door Rabbit I was in love with it. That is until last week when someone t-boned me at about 60 miles an hour. After the car spun 360 degrees, I got out and walked away. I work at a personal injury law firm and have seen plenty of similar accidents where people have permanent injuries, and all I ended up with was seatbelt burn. For the money, you cant get a better quality or safer car. I can guarantee when I get my settlement check from the insurance company Ill be buying myself another Rabbit.

    I knew I was going to buy this car as soon as I sat in it at a recent auto show. So far, I have not regretted trading my 2004 Element for this fun to drive and feature laden hatchback. It has an excellent Teutonic design inside and out, and it has every feature you really need for your daily drive. It has top notch build quality. It is an Audi for the masses.

  • Ram 2 Rabbit - 2007 Volkswagen Rabbit
    By -

    I traded a Dodge Ram 4x4 for this Sage Green Rabbit. The other cars in my house are the 325xi and 525i. This is no BMW, but it is one heckuva fun way to get 30 mpg and decent urban transportation. It has tons of room for 6 2" me and even my 6 kid in the backseat. My first fill up was 28 mpg and thats with an automatic. It is a little noisy on the highway, but its a $16,000 car, not a $40,000 BMW. Its utility, mpg, maneuverability, and feel are great.

    This car has a lot of pep to it! Passing is no problem, keeping it under the speed limit may be! I like the design, the interior is very comfortable. Good space even in the backseat, folded down my large dog stretches out nicely. Lots of cup holders, spots to put stuff, good air conditioner!
