Anyone driven either of these ? Would the CC be a better buy than a Jetta (not pricewise, but i.t.o. performance, etc)

Thanks
 
What's the Tiguan got to do with things? :/
 
The Tiguan is a very nice car IMO and offers more versatility than a CC.
 
Haven't driven the CC before but I do own a Tiguan and I can honestly say that it is an absolutely amazing car. Everything and more that you need, luxury, safe, reliable and economical. It's awesome to drive (not to big - not to small = just right)

Go testdrive them and then decide, but I honestly could not wish for a better car.

That sounds good.
 
Oh - sorry ... maybe I read the question wrong ;)

Subject it's CC vs Tiguan - but body is CC vs Jetta ...
 
bluuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu - I R resident VW peddler... PM me if you need any specific info on any of them.

Personal opinion - disregard the Jetta. It's being replaced next year to bring it in line with the new Golf6. The CC is fantastic - it's an incredible amount of car for the money and frankly I think VW did the Merc CLS-look better than what Mercedes themselves managed. My pick would however be the Tiguan - as has been mentioned it offers versatility that the CC can't match. It is a very nice drive & really does have more features than what you'd ever need.

EDITH to add:

The most important factor is that you get the car you want to drive & be seen driving. The CC and Tiguan can't be directly compared - are you looking for a luxo-barge to waft along in. or a surprisingly capable part-time off-roader for those trips into the sticks?

the CC is a fantastic car, the V6 engine is very very powerful and with the right alloys, looks better than the cls 350
 
The 2.0TFSI CC and Jetta have the current Golf 6 Gti engine.
The CC is the better car imo from the 3... many reasons not in the mood to type it all out hehehehe.
I rate the CC higher than a C200 Mercedes!!!!
 
As enigma said, however, you cannot directly compare these two cars. They are both great for entirely different reasons. It all depends what you are looking for.
 
drove the tiguan 1.4 TSI at launch ... lovely car, lots of power ... the CC is pretty IMO, but they different vehicles ... so what do you want from a vehicle?

It is for my better half, who reguarly drives long distances and on very bad roads ... potholes, etc.

I guess that would probably mean that the Tiguan would be a slightly better choice.

It would be the much better choice then.

That's what my husband did for me ... :D

Had the Golf 4 (automatic) before, but I llloooooovvvveee my Tiguan 2.0 TDI - it's a 4x4 but it's not bulky, you feel extremely safe in the car because you're sitting a bit higher than the average traffic. Getting in and out is also not a problem (I'm 1.70 and I get in/out very easily). It's got heated seats, numerous safety compartments (drawer at the bottom of the passenger seat for those little extra's, 3 places next to the mirror to tuck away your sunglasses.) It handles like a dream! and did I mention the heated seats ;)

She'll love it - I can not wish for a better car!
