Fun to drive, economical, practical, reliable.

Impressed with the value. For what I spent I got a lot. In addition to great engine and drive train the sound system is excellent.

First time owner

So I havenโ€™t had this car that long but from what I have experienced it is a great car. The 5 speed manual is very smooth. There is no jerking when shifting, the clutch is tight, just an all around fun car to drive.

WORST car I have ever owned.

Long time ago I asked a dealer friend of mine if VW was a good idea and he told me, absolutely not you will hate me if I sell it you and you'll bring it right back. Now I understand what he meant. The Jetta is a terrible car, problem after problem. In 9 months the vehicle purchased CPO has needed endless repairs. Could be the VW service dept.. but what a nightmare of a car. Stay away. Go with Toyota or Nissan...

Loving it

Since college Iโ€™ve always wanted a jetta or GLI but I went with Honda because they were suppose to be more reliable. Finally own a 15 Jetta and I love it, the seats are very comfy, great gitty up and mpg. I have the SE with turbo. I bought my sons 12 and 14 Accord v6s but they are as comfy as this car on long trips. Get you one!!

This car drives very easy

It barely feels like the engine is running. It barely feels like any gas is being used up when I'm driving this car. When I'm driving, this car allows me to think about the journey as much as the destination (in a good way, of course!).

Sexy sports car

Far from boring I loved it . The sterio sounded great and it drove so smooth not to mention it was a quick little thang.

Never a Fan of German Cars UNTIL NOW

The Jetta is usually comparable to a Honda Civic and Elantra and interior itโ€™s virtually identical. But whatโ€™s u see the HOOD!!!! Itโ€™s a beast of a machine and amazing performance. Iโ€™m highly satisfied.

Great for the Misses

Perfect car for the Misses. Classic German design and ride, very adequate power. Nice cruiser car and back seat is very large. Trunk also large. I would recommend.

Very reliable and safe.

We leased this car for 4 years. We decided to buy it because we thought it the best thing since we are in our 70โ€™s now. We knew this car was a good one, unlike buying something we know nothing about. I love this car, but I have loved all of my volkswagens. We had leased two EOS convertibles previous to this.
