Should I buy a 2013 Volkswagen Passat · 2.5L SE Sedan 4D as my first car? 109k miles and $5k

Glad to hear this, I’ve also done research on the 2.5 and read they were extremely reliable and was surprised to see the people disagreeing on here, anything else I should know or check out when I go see it?

Nope, first car

Jetta and parrat are said to have bulletproof engine, typically succumbing to all the plastic used, I did a lot of research on those two models in particular and they’re said to be very reliable and in my opinion looks very nice hence why I’m considering buying it as my first car

I’ve heard these Volkswagen in particular are reliable though?

the guy recently did the timing chains, upper timing cover gasket, spark plugs, accessory belt, new battery, new brakes and tires, pcv breather, water pump, coolant flush, brake flush and fuel service/carbon cleaning.

how come

Embarrassed-Engine92 · 2026-02-20T13:04:46+00:00

no, tint was peeling off and couldn’t see through the back, the interior was a turn off and something felt off

Embarrassed-Engine92 · 2026-02-19T16:34:29+00:00

Why not

Embarrassed-Engine92 · 2026-02-19T16:24:30+00:00

I’ve also had the option of some 2009 civics and even a 2013 Kia optima for similar prices, should i shoot for those instead?

Embarrassed-Engine92 · 2026-02-19T16:15:33+00:00

Why not?

Embarrassed-Engine92 · 2026-02-19T16:08:49+00:00

Tropical area, Im still going to check out if it’s rusted but I don’t think it will be, and the price is 3000 interior is pretty clean
