VW quality seems to percieve high, and satisfy low. Consumer Reports typically shreds VWs.. but I just looked and they recommend the V6 but not the 4cyl.
They do have head protection.. but no OnStar if you care. The dealer service is known to be about the worst. Ask some locals what they think of the dealer service before you commit. Last time I looked at the Passat you had to remove the rear headrests to drop the seat backs.. so old fashioned.
It is a nice car, and the price seems totally competitive- even with the insane good deals on 9-5s right now.
I just would talk to lots of new-Passat owners before you go for it.
