Hello Richard, I watched your review over and over again and want to say thank you for the detailled feature tour. I ordererd a CC and can't wait to get my hands on it. Thanks to your video I know how to use the buttons without having to read the whole manual! Keep it up, it's been really helpful! Greetings from Germany.
Just received my 2013 VW CC and this video cleared up a couple questions and filled me in on a couple items I didn't know about. Great Job and Thank You on the details!
Dude this video was so good and you showed things that no other review out there showed me. I've been doing a lot of research about the CC and I'm sold after watching this review. So this particular model is the sport plus correct? The one after the entry model (sport)
Great review Richard. You covered a lot of things that other reviews skip over. I have a 2012 GTI and I didn't even know the armrest was adjustable in that way!
Very informative, Richard. Just bought a black on black CC VR6 4MOTION Executive yesterday here in Seattle. It's on it's way from the RoRo port facility in Houston - the wait is going to kill me!
Cristian, I am originally from Utah. I grew up in Sandy and lived in Salt Lake City for many, many years. I look forward to helping you with your new VW. I love these cars and love showing them off! Thank you for your comment.
one of the hardest step in car manufactures is making a car look amazing then making it look even more amazing then its previous generation and VW sure know how to deal with that cant wait till my father gets one. VW = Das Auto :)
Very helpful and informative! My new CC is on the car train from Houston. Your video gave me a head start on understanding all the tech before I take delivery. Thanks, J Koch, Seattle WA
Awesome review. I have owned a 2012 CC Lux plus with the back up camera for about 15 months now. I wish mine had the revised tail lights but not this new corporate front grille (although I won't mind the new LED headlights). I also prefer my rear bucket seats than the there seater which isn't really practical. Again, great detailed review.
Hi! Thanks for watching. I like an ecclectic mix of things. Boards of Canada, Sven van Hees, Air, Juno Reactor, Ladytron, Martin Denny, Orbital, Thievery Corporation, and many others. My taste is varied, from Electronic to 60's Lounge and even 70's Disco.
The Lux trim level includes everything found on the Sport Plus, plus 18" alloy wheels, interior ambient lighting, dark brushed aluminum trim on the dashboard, doors, and center console. The sunroof pops up but doesn't slide due to the extreme curve of the roof and size of the glass panel.
These video are awesome and very detailed if you could do the other vehicles in volkswagen line up that would be great, personally I would like to see the touareg.
Absolutely great video! You did an excellent job! I am completely sold. Is there a particular time of year that I should purchase a VW? (i.e. end of year, beginning of year)
They should make the CC with the GTI steering wheel...wuld look great in this car! I just a 2013 GTI in August and I love it! Just my windows tined too!
These video are awesome and very detailed if you could do the other vehicles in volkswagen line up that would be great, personally I would like to see the touareg. Quick question what is the fastest volkswagen produced that I can purchase when I walk in the dealership?
Detailed review. ! I also hear that 2013 CC has some bit of advanced safety features such as blind spot monitoring and lane departure warning. are those standard in all the models? Is it possible to add rear view camera in sport plus or lux as an option ?
It actually is proportional to the amount of additional features found in the base model now. They have nicer computers, alarms, xenon headlamps with LED daytime running lights and LED taillights standard now. The base price went up i relation to the additional features they added.
Mileage is variable according to your driving style and where you drive. However, I get reports of 32 mpg on the highways from my customers regularly. I also have heard averages (both city and highway driving) of 26 mpg. The levels are all varied. Mostly, every trim tier adds more luxury items. For example, the Sport Plus adds navigation. The Lux adds a panoramic moonroof and different wheels. The V6 Lux adds Wood and LED internal ambient lighting. The Executive adds cooled seats with massage.
I enjoyed the review thanks. Two questions regarding the 2015 CC 1. Are you able to control what plays on an iPod by voice control and, 2. how can an iPhone be charged. Thanks
Steve Miller You can say "Music" which starts playing music from the bluetooth connected device but you cannot choose specific tracks. The CC uses an MDI cable which will either be a 30 pin connector for iPhone 4 and earlier or a lightning connector for the current iPhone models. A USB cigarette lighter adapter can be purchased and used as well.
I will be doing more, definitely. The fastest VW right now 0 to 60 is the Golf R. That is 5.5 seconds. The second fastest, interestingly, is the Passat V6 at 5.7 seconds.
so $2505 for things you listed above. I wonder if you can make a video to show how much nicer the dark brushed aluminum trim can be. How the ambient light looks. In general I feel like Sport Plus offers better value.
Do you really have to put your foot on the brake before you turn it on? I have and '08 Passat with that key and I don't have to put my foot on the brake.
This is the best review of a CC on TH-cam! Thank you for going into detail on the not only the car, but the features as well.

thank you sir, just bought one today and very pleased I`ve watched your video :)
Very informative review! I appreciate someone who actually goes through everything and doesn't make it seem like a chore! Thanks for a great review!

This was the best overview I have seen on the CC. Thank you so much. You've made my decision to perhaps go with the CC that much easier. Cheers!

I do enjoy your overviews. I am looking for a Golf GTI or R and came to this video to see the sat nav demo and ended up watching the whole thing..
Great review Richard. You covered a lot of things that other reviews skip over. I have a 2012 GTI and I didn't even know the armrest was adjustable in that way!
Thank you. I'm happy you appreciate the effort that went into it. :)
I love the 3.6 CC. So intensely quick and the sound is amazing. I'll see what I can do.
You rock man, u covered just about everything about the CC! I found the TSI explanation interesting!
I drive a 12 R-line. Love my car. Yes, 0-60 in 6.4 seconds. I learned a couple of things I did not know about "Gretchen" from your video. Thank you.
Finally! A perfect review of the CC. Now I'm seriously thinking about getting one. Would buy from you Richard and I live on the Nevada border! LOL!
i really enjoyed watching 2013 VW CC Sport Plus Tour , thanx a lot , ibrahim from Saudi Arabia

thanks, i was just looking into having the ecu flashed to a stage 1 and changing the down pipe.

nice review
i love VW CC is one of the best.
These video are awesome and very detailed if you could do the other vehicles in volkswagen line up that would be great, personally I would like to see the touareg.
richard im going to come see you when i buy my next vw and i live in utah..
Your review is very detailed. Do some more. Maybe another brand that VW?

Absolutely great video! You did an excellent job! I am completely sold. Is there a particular time of year that I should purchase a VW? (i.e. end of year, beginning of year)
They should make the CC with the GTI steering wheel...wuld look great in this car! I just a 2013 GTI in August and I love it! Just my windows tined too!
very thorough!!!
The rear view camera does come on the V6 lux and executive trim levels.
These video are awesome and very detailed if you could do the other vehicles in volkswagen line up that would be great, personally I would like to see the touareg. Quick question what is the fastest volkswagen produced that I can purchase when I walk in the dealership?
Nice video
Detailed review. ! I also hear that 2013 CC has some bit of advanced safety features such as blind spot monitoring and lane departure warning. are those standard in all the models? Is it possible to add rear view camera in sport plus or lux as an option ?
Affirmative. Very much so, since I was about 7 or 8 years old, actually.
I'm sold...now that's how you sell a car!!!
Very nice!!!
I love This tecnhology. I love This car
Nice nano watch!
so nice

1:07 That's a beautiful car
Hi! I drive a 2011 Platinum Gray Metallic Jetta SEL. My lease is up in October and I'm considering a Turbo Beetle next.
Good morning, your videos are very good.
If possible could do a performance test of the VW CC 3.6
thank you.
A lot of things are the same like at the much older Passat 3C B6 . But ist a very cool car like the 3CB6.
great video.. just wondering if you can make a similar video for the 2013 GTI? please and thanks.
OK, thank you :)
9:59 TSI really means Turbo stratified Injection, the fuel is injected directly into the piston and is sprayed in a Stratified pattern.
It is very nice Jetta. I love This car. I want one for chritsmas.
Mileage is variable according to your driving style and where you drive. However, I get reports of 32 mpg on the highways from my customers regularly. I also have heard averages (both city and highway driving) of 26 mpg.

I enjoy VW's simplicity philosophy.
Agreed!
Can you show how the lux trim looks? I really want to know how much better the dark aluminum looks.
I enjoyed the review thanks. Two questions regarding the 2015
CC
1. Are you able to control what plays on an iPod by voice control and,
2. how can an iPhone be charged.
Thanks

The CC uses an MDI cable which will either be a 30 pin connector for iPhone 4 and earlier or a lightning connector for the current iPhone models. A USB cigarette lighter adapter can be purchased and used as well.
What average of milage should I look into getting with this car?
Also, what are the difference in each of the levels of models?
I love VW but the power symbol revolves as you turn the knob, that bothers me. Minor flaw.
Agreed.
Black leather saloon and panel = good
I've met this guy :)
I will be doing more, definitely.
The fastest VW right now 0 to 60 is the Golf R. That is 5.5 seconds. The second fastest, interestingly, is the Passat V6 at 5.7 seconds.

I've seen no issues after 40 to 50 k miles. In fact, I have seen nothing but reliability well through 150k and up.
it's all very nice because it shows some setails you don't know through regular tests. still, I think it lacks real road test
Loving the British setting :D
What's more on the lux trim? So the sunroof still doesn't open?
grocery bag hooks... hehe, rather cool!
are you sure, that is 5.7 seconds?
in what type of conditions...
sounds v e r y impressive
Thanks for watching!
I like my 2011 lux limited plus, just needs more hp
Is that cable permanent, because that won't fit the new iPhone/iPod ?!
Do you really have to put your foot on the brake before you turn it on? I have and '08 Passat with that key and I don't have to put my foot on the brake.
