2009 VW CC: Initial thoughts
... getting into a sedan shouldn't require a head-ectomy.
These types of cars — sedans with coupe-like profiles — have become popular in recent years, but mainly in high-end luxury cars such as Mercedes and Audi. The VW CC could be considered the first entry at a more affordable price point.
My first thought is the CC is difficult to get into. I’m 5-foot-10, so getting into a sedan shouldn’t require a head-ectomy. But every time I get in, I feel like I’m trying to fold myself into the Apollo Lunar module.
As always, the 200-horsepower, turbocharged, 2.0-liter four cylinder provides teriffic throttle response and unexpected quickness. It does seem a little coarse for a car that goes for more $36K.
Watch this space for a full review soon.
- VW’s 2009 CC continues a trend of four-door sedans designed to look like coupes.
