A VW will certainly keep you on your toes. It’s like a whirlwind romance complete with check engine lights, broken parts and big bills. A TDI will not make any difference, because usually the drivetrain will hold together, but the rest of the car just falls apart like wet cardboard. I’ve owned two late model VW’s and while I loved the styling the fell very short in the quality department. I got to know the parts guys very well with both of them.
Neither is sitting in the mechanic's 'lobby" with its well worned sofa and year-old Sports Illustrated magazines.
How about the Acura TSX or TL?
Infiniti G35?M35?
'09 or newer Nissan Maxima?
I'm not finding any CPO Acuras or Infinitis at $20K or below...
But I appreciate the suggestions.
