With the stick, 0-60 is like 8.1 seconds.  Not bad at all.  Probably not that much slower with the automatic.  It's a six speed AT, right?

CR thought it dependable enough to recommend it. I know you have a hard on for slamming VW... and much of it is warranted... but I'm hoping + thinking this is the exception
