Equipped with the same zippy 200-horsepower 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that graces the GTI, Jetta and Passat, the front-wheel-drive Eos wastes no time spooling up. Its 207 pound-feet of peak torque is delivered in a nonstop flow that starts at 1800 rpm and continues all the way to 5000 rpm. Put your foot on the gas and enjoy its agreeably meaty sound. Our tester had a six-speed manual transmission, which had the usual VW rubberiness to it, but a six-speed DSG automatic transmission is available for $1,000. A 3.2-liter version available with the DSG automatic transmission only goes on sale November 15.

  • I just bought a used (08) Eos 2.0T manual yesterday ♥ Can't wait to pick it up in 2 weeks!! 

  • the 2006-present Volkswagen Eos is assembled in

    Palmela, Portugal

  • the EOS needs a resign...badly

  • I did some reading up on this car and there's a company that will sell a kit that you can install fairly easily, that allows you let the top up and down while driving up to 30 mph!! I'll try to find that link again

  • have to be parked.

    also, theres hacks/mods so you can control the roof through the remote

  • can you let the top up and down while driving or do you hav eto be in park

    also does it come it a remote control that can let the top up and down or just the button on the inside

  • dammit! cant work out what colour i want! they all look s ogood lol - black, blue and red.

    I know i want a cream interior, but what colour? gah probably black is sexiest.

  • No kidding I drove a 1988 Lincoln towncar before with 500,000+ miles on it and I was still able to run away from a Civic hahaha and that bitch weighs a ton!

  • yeah i really dont like mustangs much, but i have to respect the Cobra's, they are nothing to play with. Muscle cars are cheaper to maintain, cheaper to upgrade and get more power, and just all around more exciting in my opinion. Yeah imports are light and high revving, but u just dont get the satisfation that u do from a big torqy V8 with RWD and enough weight to plant the power into the earth's core lol

  • Yeah I didn't mean to sound like an asshole bud there really is no reason to compare cars like these. I actually like the earlier Camaro SS. I use to only love Supras and Evos and such but after doing some research on the SVT Cobra Mustang it opened my eyes to a different view of 'muscle cars'.
