2007 2dr Hardtop conv. 250-horsepower 3.2L V6
6-speed automated manual FWD
Sedan feeling with 10-way power/heated seats blended with sports-car suspension and handling. A real glove box that is cooled by the A/C. Pockets on side doors are handy for storage. see full Volkswagen Eos review
2007 2dr Hardtop conv. 250-horsepower 3.2L V6

That it exists! Gets used as more of a parcel shelf than rear seat but can fit two passengers comfortably when needed. see full Volkswagen Eos review
