Runs great and great on gas

Just bought the vehicle and so far it is absolutely fantastic. Though I gave it 4 stars for reliability, I only have had the car a week. However, it is 9 years old, had only 78,000 miles on it yet the drive and condition of the vehicle is like new. Great acceleration, gas mileage, and the condition of the vehicle plus a review of the carfax tells me this vehicle is very reliable. And the steering is nice and tight. If I had it longer I could have honestly have given it 5 stars.

Love this Jetta - Very Dependable - Quick good MPG

Love this car - sporty, fun and reliable. Got a used Wolfsburgh edition with 55k and has been great. I am really sold on the VW brand. A dependable fun car without the sticker of its cool cousin the Audi.

It's a German car, that's not easy to upkeep.

It has good pick up, decent gas mileage, looks good, and is comfortable enough with a good amount of room. It's German so nothing is easy to get fixed to maintained. Electronics on it suck.

Great little car/great mileage

First, the leather interior is a big plus! It really adds a little class to the vehicle. Not only that, but the mileage this car gets is awesome (41 mpg highway) Second, the space in the car is really great--trunk and seating. We really don't feel cramped. Air bags are located everywhere too! Heated seats are a plus. Last, for it being a small car, the car really handles well on the roads. The downsides; a driver's right side arm rest would have been nice. A place for your phone to rest would have been good too.

Blank

It's a wonderful machine that sucks on gas but is extremely sexy to look. It's a waste of German engineering but the drive tran is amazing. I would buy it again. Love at first sight and the design.
