Very fun, Very Reliable, love it

The car is an amazing hardtop convertible that is fun to drive! Also has sun roof if you don't want the top down. 0-60 in seconds.

A very fun car to drive. A rocket ship that gets

My wife has health problems and sadly it is time to sell. We have enjoyed this car and hate to see it go. It has always been garaged and all the dealer service is up to date. We have owned many convertibles and a hardtop is the best.

Love this car

I love driving this car. I got a great deal. Even though it was used it's just like brand new. It is a hard top convertible with a sunroof. When I drive this car it feels like you are floating, such a smooth ride. Very quite and it has all the options anyone would ever need. Very low mileage. Beautiful shade of blue in color. Very sharp looking, and a bit sporty.

Eos is a fun car

This is a fun car. A hardtop convertible with a full sunroof. Good in the Winter (with the hardtop) fun in the Summer (with the top down) The hard top is amazing to watch as it folds itself into the trunk - looks like a transformer toy! It's just like a sedan with the hardtop up - quiet, warm, etc.

Second one, couldn't find anything close to it!

We purchased the first one new. Never was problematic. Beautiful Eismere blue with cornsilk beige interior. In 2009, the biggest option was bluetooth phone. Hard to find. We traded it for a top of the line Passat in 2012. Now, we found ourselves yearning for the all weather capability of this targa topped, sunroofed convertible. But now, you get bluetooth streaming media, Nav, back-up sensors, HID adaptive headlights and leather. Still dislike DSG transmission, but it gets easily overlooked for the performance, versatility and MPG. I use premium unleaded only during hot months when there is a chance of pre-ignition knock. Power does not seem to be affected.

Okay Convertible

Positives: Turbo Engine, Fuel Economy, Really Cool Roof transformation, Steering, Interior Style as well as exterior style, fun Negatives: Take Ibuprofen before you drive it (rough ride over bumps), Very small trunk and interior, automatic lights and passenger seat should be standard on a $35k car, no USB port, EXPENSIVE REPAIRS when the warranty goes.

EOS 2012 bomb

Great little vehicle to travel winter( under 7 inches) Front wheel drive pulls this car great.. Turbo is floppy at best but once she hits your off!! Size for 2 great travel is fun Don t think a family of 4 will b comfortable.. Fuel economy is good and hardtop in winter up north is the only way to go... Good value and sharp looks!! May be feminine but pull your panties up boys and hit the accelerator!!!
