It has a manual transmission. It handles well and is fun to drive. I do not dislike anything about the car.

It can go fast. It is durable. It is gray. And has been worked on.
I like my car because it has all the bells and whistles. It has a/c, power windows/locks, heated leather seats and a moonroof. I like that is has the "4motion" transmission. It is a strong car with heat gas mileage. My only complaint is that it has a sealed transmission and its expensive to maintain.

My car - Volkswagen Passat 2002.
This vehicle has been extremely reliable. Greatest issue was the rear view mirror falling off. It has a rain sensor and figuring out how to glue it back on was difficult compared to other vehicles. It has leather seats which are heated, sunroof and wooden paneling. This car is comfortable and seats 5. I love my car.

A solid good handling large capacity car
My Passat is a wagon, which they do not have in the US anymore. The storage capacity is great and it has always driven wonderfully. Good handling, safe, good power and I haven't found another car I like better

It is a comfortable vehicle and it is safe. It gets good gas mileage. Oh and the heated seats are awesome.
I love the slick sharp curves of the body. The comfort and user friendly interior. It drives so smooth. It is sporty but safe.
Leslie S
It's a great daily driver and handles like a dream!
German engineering. It handles great, durable, and a great value. Repairs are expensive so that's the only negative.

Smooth, gas saver, comfortable , spacious
Best car I have bought. Rides smooth and gets me to where I need to go. Saves me on gas and it's enough space for me and my daughter. I love my Volkswagen is easy to take care off and has a great radio since I like music. My husband also loves it and my car is a green color.

Reliable Car - Lots of bang for your buck if purchasing an older model
I have had my 2002 VW Passat for about 5 years. While more complicated to repair than US made vehicles, the car has required minimal maintenance even with the miles reaching 200K
Negative Owner Reviews
Monica M
The spare key unlocks and starts the car but you can not actually drive with it.
I enjoy the leather seats, sunroof, and the interior lights that come on and the car is also very spacious. I dislike that because it is a foreign vehicle parts are a little pricey and certain tasks can only be done at the Volkswagen dealer.

That it drives really fast and is a durable car. It drives like a tank.
My favorite thing about my car is the acceleration. I dislike that it drives like a tank

Overall reliable car, some issues with heating.
This car has held up very good throughout the years. I really like the Volkswagen brand and their cars are generally very reliable. I have had some issues with the heating system though, I do not think this is a widely common issue with the Volkswagen passat though. It can be a little cramped as someone who's 6'2' though.
Mark P
Even though the car is good to drive, it is in need of a paint job.
The car gets got gas mileage. It is very easy to drive. It has good acceleration. It is easy to park.
Rae Y
Had to put money in but still reliable.
I love how spacious it is especially the trunk. It is a little old and of course that comes with issues. I have had to put more money into fixing my car than it is actually worth. But now it is very reliable to take me long distances. Does great in all types of weather, even snow.

It is reliable and doesn't cost much to maintain
It is a 4 cylinder fuel injected with power windows,steering.it is starting to act up as it is almost 20 years old
Wakita P
It doesn't have a lot of power, but it can get you where you need to go
I bought the car used, and am so far satisfied with its functionality. It's a little inconvenient to have worn done on it because not everyone is trained
Maria H
Air conditioner and heater problems and interior and exterior.
Interior and exterior need work done have dents and gas needs to be cheaper and I got a v6 I would also say that my car get me from here to there so I am happy with that and the air conditioner works good just my heater is out which sucks in the cold but heated seats work very well but on in the front two seats leather seats which I don't like in the summer.
