  | Automobile Magazine - REVIEWS: 2009 Volkswagen CC Luxury VR6 4Motion      Wow, the base MSRP for a front-wheel-drive CC 2.0T is $2000 LESS than a similarly equipped Passat? It seems that the Passat range has been reduced only to front-wheel-drive models equipped with the 2.0T turbocharged four-cylinder engine; all-wheel-drive 4Motion and VR6 models have been nixed, yet reappear in the CC range. As old as it is, the VR6 is still a smooth, strong engine. Combined with the six-speed "tiptronic," it responds swiftly and smoothly to throttle input. And with the CC's supple ride quality and quiet cabin (wind noise, even with frameless windows, is virtually nonexistent), it really does feel like a more premium product than the regular Passat. But why must this be a four-seater? The pointless slide-open center console in the rear could be better served by a third (if not small) seat. Evan McCausland, Web Producer More Reviews: Automobile Magazine - REVIEWS: 2009 Volkswagen CC Luxury VR6 4Motion What a handsome car. This is my new favorite VW. It seems as though VWoA has given up on the regular Passat. There are no more VR6 models being imported. M
