I traded in my VW Jetta GLI to get this car for my wife when we had our first child. A very solid and dependable car for the money. It came loaded with tons of options that many other cars in its class simply don't offer. The touch screen radio with iPod dock is really nice to have for daily drives as well road trips. Surprisingly large trunk space. The full size spare tire is also a nice addtion.

Overall a great car - very fun, good fuel economy, sporty yet sophisticated. Has similar feel of luxury higher end 3 series BMW or c-class Benz without the added cost and gets better fuel economy. Lower cost of maintenance vs. luxury options as well. Highly recommend this car.

Very good car. A car for everyday use... can withstand alot of bad roads... can be pretty sporty and has a VERY BIG FUN FACTOR... Looks pretty cool too. Awsome car for beginners that want 170 Horespower^^ It never lets you down... good breaks good acceleration very good stearing and it will never break down

This car was the perfect pick for my daughter, she learned to drive with my Volvo SUV, then my Passat. These were a little big for her and harder to navigate parking situations. I surprised her with a Jetta. She loves it. It is just the right size and handles great for a new driver. This car has been reliable and safe for her.
