 I shopped for a small car that was comfortable and has good visibility in all directions, VW won.  This car looks small from the outside, not so when you get in.  With tilt and telescopic steering wheel and three way adjustable seats, comfort comes easily, making entry and exit a breeze.  Tiptronic is fun, the heated seats are hot, 6-disc CD changer/Sirius is cool, 17" low profile tires give it a great look.  Lots of head room too.  I got triple-white  and love it.  I threw out the flower holder.
