How did you find out about the Eos?
I have never seen a TV commercial or any other ad for the Eos, except for the newspaper ads where the dealers list the cars they have. (I'm in the Boston area.)
How did you learn about the Eos?
My discovery was pure chance-- in June of 2008, my daughter was looking for a used car, and we ended up finding a good deal on a used Nissan Sentra at the local VW dealer. While we were hanging out completing the deal and waiting for the paperwork to get processed, we had some time to kill in the showroom. A salesman just happened to be demonstrating the car (roof operation) to a customer-- that was the first I'd ever heard of the car!
Because of that day, the car was on my list when I went shopping for a convertible in May of 2009......

When I discovered the Eos, I wasn't even shopping for a convertible. I was looking for a nice coupe that wasn't a bargain-basement subcompact car and also not a sports car wannabe "pony" car. I pretty much went to each manufacturer's website looking for their 2-door offerings. When I got to VW and saw the Eos, I realized that I could have all the advantages of a coupe with the added bonus of a retractable hardtop for sunnier days -- all for a price lower than the other cars I was considering.
Reading through this thread, it's a shame VW didn't promote the Eos more. It seems like many of us discovered the car by chance. Had it been advertised more, it may have been more successful.
