Volkswagen has made it easier than ever to go topless.

XD

[tshan122]

i got this car yesterday for my 16th birthday and i love it! when i drive one of my parents usually sit in the back and one in front and they actually have a room in the back. they say the back has a lot more room than my sister's bmw 325i.. this car is great!

the 2006-present Volkswagen Eos is assembled in

Palmela, Portugal

[liliceman78]

my dad is looking at buying an audi a4 convertible or an eos. he likes the eos better so far....more spacious back seat and its a hard top.

[jwatwater]

who must I kill to get a soft top convertible? most hardtop 4 seat convertible look super akward...

[rock3tcat]

Automatic? GTFO of here! 

[TheCarManiac18]

if you want a nice, quality, good-looking convertible, eos is a GREAT choice

[NickoMcbrainRules]

did the "tag your green" commercial just tell anyone else to pee in the shower?

[Mnog10]

can I open only the sunroof?

[Delmenhorster]

@Mnog10 yes

[licoagustin9]

@Mnog10 of course :D

[cybrboi]

@Mnog10 Yep just the sunroof can open if you want.

[BFU2UBE]

I would love for that hot guy to come with the car! What a great combo! Hehe!

[DrBongWater]

You should watch

Top Gear

but on the other hand...

you should not.

Just stay doing what you are doing...

ho humm...

[Gapandgold]

i like it.. i thought one would look nice...

[ashhwednesday]

Ugh the eos is so beautiful :( but it's a tad expensive for a teenager

[mmanu8]

how much is this car in the u.s??

[south88park]

i'm trying to decide between this and a lexus gs 430 any help?

[Delmenhorster]

@south88park Eos.

[dastaylor]

I have an 08 Eos I and I love the car, the top works great.

[mamagoochi]

he acts like a genius waiter at a cheap restaurant

small wages

brilliant mind

very very very lazy

booooooooooring

laid back also

thinks he is too cool

[GrotrianSeiler]

This is one of the most under-rated cars. Put it in S mode and it has a LOT of kick. And it is comfortable all day long. 65K and I've never had a problem. Love this car!

If that's not enough, it always seems to do 31mpg. That's pretty good for a car like this. Couldn't be happier.

[steva30]

@GrotrianSeiler dawwwm I think i got a lemon after readin your comment



[AnonymoussourceL0L]

I wish there was a sport package. 0-60 in 7.4 sec....

[HaZeM3001]

is it all diesel ?

[voxgateway]

@rockologo. Well, I'm just over 6'0" and I find the Eos very comfortable. I have the Lux with the electric seats and they go waaaaaaay down to the floor. If I had to guess I'd say that a person as much as 6'5" would be comfortable in this car. Also, even if you max out the travel of the seat you can always open the interior sun shade and gain about 3" of head room. Hope that helps. I LOVE MY FREAKING EOS!!! WOOOO HOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

[adamslurch71]

@voxgateway To help you out a little, I'm 7'2" and I find the little EOS extremely comfortable. everything is in just the right place and its an extreme amount of fun on the twisty mountain roads.

[mamagoochi]

@adamslurch71 seven feet 2

are you kiddin me

damn

[krauser979]

This is my favourite volkswagon once i saw its picture in consumer reports magazine i was in love with its design and specs i wish i had my full licence and cash or i would get this car in a heart beat

[SuriWurri]

Love my car ;-)))

[Rricossuave]

Definitely a smart car, but it's not very nice car to look at.

[peachpye]

I have the turbo in silver. love it. so fun.

[FerrariandBMW]

That's a good looking Chrysler.

[clubheadxtasy2]

i test drove one today! I'm pretty sure im going to get it, it really is excellent.

[starlandliu]

this gonna be the most handsome-looking, transformer-est convertible ever built.

[voxgateway]

I bought my Eos in July and all I can say is I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS CAR!!! I want to live in this car!!! Everything from the amazing acceleration to the nav system to the incredible top!!! This car is soooo comfortable and soooo much fun to drive. I am glad that I didn't go for the BMW that I was looking to buy. The Eos is half the price of comparable BMW yet it is certainly not half the car. I loooove my EOS!!

[DeathToAllReligions]

@voxgateway

I love VW, but I drove a Mini Cooper and wondered, given the similarity in price, would you have taken the Eos over the Mini?

[voxgateway]

I would take the Eos ANY day of the week.... I drove the mini and for me, there is only 1 choice, the Eos....Love it love it love it!

[rockologo]

@voxgateway I'm 6.'2 tall.. Do you recommend this car for me??? I really want it..

[yass2022]

@voxgateway DO u compare 3 series convertible with Eos , Oh Man BMW 3 series is amazing , EOS is Nice But Cant reach BMW and audi level , Drive The BMW convertible then u can Judge it

[musicfrans]

i bought this car 3 weeks ago, it's  a incredible,awesome ,delirious car.

[sanriobo]

yay for topless lol

[zzdust]

saw one. want one.

[jvrdlc]

I need to buy dis car so badddd

[LittleZits909]

me too!

[marco20089]

este coche esta super chingon ya quisiera comprarmelo

[newandused1998]

0:18 i hear the chime.

[Superperson7]

I want it...

[usama1119]

i wish vw brought more cars over from europe so we could have more cars to choose from.

[zebusao92]

muito chique

[chinared0624]

nice music

nice car

[AnthonyUK]

It is one of the very few covertibles that can truly boast the ability to take 4 adults.

[kamustaaussie]

P.S. I got the TDI, so economical and the best way to go!

[kamustaaussie]

I got the Volkswagen Eos Individual for my 18th Birthday :) so happy hey.

[EllysaE]

My friend has this car. Too bad she lives 3 blocks from school and never drives it. Ever. It just sits there.

[Straightup28]

i would cry if i saw such a badass car not being driven

[nevrtwolate]

The interior is gorgeous.  German companies seem to specialize with interiors...

[breno0294]

I am Brazilian and here in Brazil the best selling brands are Fiat and VW. The cars are the Ford devalued here.

[ljr2791]

this car is SOOOOO cute! gosh i wish i had one!

[Pankrah1985]

just got mine in the same colour 2.0 fsi sport, love it

[ashtonvic]

My next car the exact colour and interior, cant wait !!

[jmpeitz]

My daughter has this car as a loaner. Rode in it today and it was incredibly fun, rides really smoothly, handles well. I'd be happy with one.

[portiachen]

don't even get me started on american cars.

bad design, bad reliability.

[Room84]

cd changer? really....

[JaBunGa23]

could a guy drive this?

[clokverkorange]

I drove one for about 2 hours while waiting for my car to be fixed. With the top down and some good music going, EVERY woman under 35 was checking me out and returning my smile. I wouldn't say this car will get you laid, but it will definitely get you noticed. You'd probably get the same looks in a Mustang or Eclipse with the top down, but in my opinion the Eos has more sex appeal, and more for the money

It's convertible, fast, has a solid engine noise, and looks way more expensive than it is.

[loopba]

Read between the lines: the Honda Civic SI is better

[kfreewi]

Different market here... These things start at $31k or so. I doubt anyone is going to cross shop this with a Civic.

[pinoytuner94]

lol more like a german sebring. Oh and I almost pissed myself when I saw the word "reliable" and "volkswagen" in the same sentence LMFAO.

[mshah71]

i agree. i rarely (VERY rarely) go a month without having something mess up with my jetta

[PDXAudiVW]

Is the Eos an entry level car for a hard top A4???? They are definately a cool car and a great way for the company to easy their way into that kind of car.

[laquavion101]

i have a volkswagen passat its the best car ive had i would love the eos tho. these are real reliable and safe cars.

[knifey]

Very much worth the money.. Are you guys insane? This is a great car..

[HipposRBest]

36k, you should be so lucky. In the UK the cheapest 3.2 litre model is just shy of $44k

[stanbernadino]

36k?! Talk about the wrong time, nobody can afford that car.

[jonnyfx]

Don't you mean, YOU CAN'T AFFORD THIS CAR? At least be honest OK?

[stanbernadino]

I suppose I could afford it if I didn't spend my money on anything else, but I'd rather buy a good American car and spend half the money, just my preference.

[cmeshuffle187]

ive got my own one it is definetly the best car out on the market

[bg1379]

Have they ever given a bad review???

[morgangamer22]

Cool

[jojojealousy69]

this car look really big in this video but in real life... this car is tiny and definately not worth 36k.... for 36k.. you can get a brand new mercedes clk 350 convertible..

[jonnyfx]

Sorry, name shopping buffoon. VW is superior to Mercedes in every way.  VW, Porsche, and Audi are far superior to Mercedes.

[jnfr2424]

I have a Benz and the Eos and I prefer my EOS any day get a Benz and you will truly understand what I mean

[teasy7]

this car is too expensive, for what you get.

[ripsnorting13]

not really.

[tigercrap]

Damn, nice features,...but too expensive for $36K. The styling is above average, but nothing to get me excited about.

[sanfoori]

awesome car

[ragamatazza]

the worst car of VW: ugly,expensive,useless

[camarodue]

this is a pretty cool car

[EverythingPaintball5]

would u be able to get this in black??

[CigoXXL]

of corse it is i got it in black with beige leatherseats and it looks pretty cool with 19inch rims i love this car

[soejammm]

how many seats are in the back?

two or three?

[CigoXXL]

there are 2 seats in the back and its very confortable lg

[mo41ony]

eos are cool car but they are hard to fix

[Polizei112]

FWD is a turn off but its still quite a cool car.

[jadetraveler]

What's wrong with FWD?

[EllysaE]

Everything.

[jadetraveler]

Could you be more specific?

[EllysaE]

No.

[jake92195]

haha EOS!!!!

[therayman3]

i dont like the back headlight

style of it.

[morgienyc08]

i am looking to buy a new car and i went to the dealer and try thing car out i like it but its to high on the price here in ny they want 40.k from me for it what can u do

[annoyingdjkhaled]

use your brain,buy a more luxurios car but the same price

[NiceCar2008]

for 40 you can buy bmw hard top convertable.

[philletjo87]

the eos is simply amazing, put on some 19" wheels and u got a badass

[Rockmans1989]

The Eos is better than any BMW Cabrio.

[wideopen704]

are you high, EOS is a very good car but any new BMW cabrio will run rings around the EOS.

[doctorpingu]

We have the limited edition 'Individual' version of the Eos.

Shush a lush car :)

[anildalia]

Cool video. we are considering leasing the EOS. Hopefully the 'tester' isn't paid by VW! we have taken his opinion seriously.

Thanks. AD, New Jersey, USA.

[verbusen]

I owned 2 new beetles (a 98 auto and a 02 turbo stick) and while I enjoyed the driving experience, they broke a lot. I want a hardtop convertible and with 4 seats so I might get this , I'll be getting the extended warranty for sure if I do.

[cachoro91]

simon puto

[mobsterbillyjoe]

my mom bought this a week ago over the 1 series.... better price, hard top= quieter, sum roof, great mpg and still a very nice look to it

[1000Orgasms]

Pornrific.

[USDMotorworks]

My girl is looking at the EOS. The car looks good and I was surprised the MPG for a convertible that weighs 3,505lbs per VW webpage. 21/30mpg premium. The 08 Rabbit weighs 2,975 at 22/29 and the 3,230lbs Jetta yielding 21/29.

Too bad it looks like a girl car. Wish it had a GTI like trim level.

[sixyears]

I think bmw will compete with this with the 1 series though it rear wheel drive and the top is cloth i think.

[dougdangger]

A rear end collision of 5mph will fuck up that top I'm sure. Something that complex will be a bitch to repair and is guaranteed to malfunction in the not so distant future.

[cellulitelove]

gorgeous. i'd wait a couple years before buying though to see if people say it's reliable/practical or not.

[marjoo]

I just ordered mine... samoa-red/brown-ish with beige leather interior! Wooooop! cant wait till i get it x x x

[yocs007]

why does the american version have that yellow side repeater light located near the side of the headlights? it looks awful i must say.

[michaellaguerre]

haha my god what a project to get the roof down its like transformers O_o

[jnfr2424]

it does not take a rocket scientist to push a button so WTF are you talking about?

[christianadriana]

the best engine is the tfsi

[kexyele]

im gonna bye it , which colour is your favorit?

[yocs007]

mine is in black with beige leather interior...it looks cool inside and out!

[econoline15063]

cant go wrong with a VW

[andrewcuclici]

cool

[R4V3BROT]

i get it for a test drive next week ;)

[tvtechwonV]

I don't have a vw but i can see why vw is the biggest car company in europe... vw engineers definately know how to put together a car.. something that american brands have no clue on........

[mcromance1]

Not true; Licoln, Mercury, Cadillac, and Buick along with Chrysler(now) all know how to put a great car together. Actually, Ford has the best selling Hybrid vehicle in the world. Don't judge American cars based off of Ford and all of the baseline model cars. The EOS is a $30,000+ car, not the same price as a crappy Cavelier or Cobalt. Even the average cheap European hatch back Econ cars are shit. I'm sick of people comparing cars like this, to cars in America that are cheaper than $30,000.

[Red40Wings13]

Wake up romance. American cars like Ford, Dodge, GM, and all that other crap suck. If you owned a German or Jap car you will realize what your missing.

[mobsterbillyjoe]

the eos is a really good car my parents bought it 28,000 dollors, fully loaded and the worlds only sun roof/ convertible.

[thea167890]

$30,000+? what i didn't pay that much. full loaded was $22,000. i got it at the vw dealer first week. never driven right off the truck.

[Xtreme066]

how didi you purchase this vehicle so cheap? And.... do you love it?

[verbusen]

you're full of it.

[thea167890]

sorry my bad was driven before i got it.

[sspope]

1. American Fords (except trucks and mustangs) are based on Ford's European platforms or Volvo platforms and all turbocharged engines were designed by Germans. Even Mazda uses these European platforms.

2. Chryslers are based on Mercedes platforms.

3. GM also does a lot of research in Europe. Any more question?

[Turquoise66]

this doesn't explain why European sales are lower than others...

[sspope]

lolwut??? where did you get that from?

[Turquoise66]

well, Ford is the best selling car in America and some countries in Europe. Ford number one in UK.

Chevy and Ford are the top brand in Russia.

the top five brands are Toyota, Chevy, Ford, Chrysler, VW.

American cars were shit in the past, but recently they have become better. Ford beat out Honda and tied with Toyota as far as quality and consumer satisfaction. Gm is following suit by investing in their top brands.

Chrysler...uh..

my favorites are still VW and Audi!! both European.

[kittybirg]

Cheers to VW for continually making great cars. I normally don't like hardtopped 'verts, but that is an exceptionally nice one. :3

[sandrino]

Its a great car. We have one just like it, we love it.

[sethworld]

great review... I love my Eos
