I have seen the new Golf/GTi in a few magainzes, but not the new Jetta. The new Golf looks nice, but they always show it with modest, ugly 15" wheels. I guess the GTi will get the "sport treatment".

tom i saw the pix of the jetta V and i dislike em, the back looks like a toyota corrola, the reason why i jumped on getting the 05 is because i didn't want the 06's. 1.8T motor is really nice, after putting the CAI you can hear the turbo sucking in the air amazing sound!
06' GLI
i like the interior but the exterior is poop! heh

You know one thing that sucks about Jettas? The rear legroom is so bad. When a passenger sits behind me, it was okay because I'm only 5'7" and I sit close, but even any "average-sized" guy (like 5'9"-5'11") driving the vehicle just can't really have anybody sitting behind him, and that's just odd since the car IS a Sedan afterall.

Yours is the first GLI I've seen. Looks really cool! I really like the added ground-effects and the wheels. I've always liked the current Jetta bodystyle.

Did they do away with the VR6 Jetta? I didn't see it on the website.

Yeah, VW has been playing around with their models a lot lately. The Jetta GLI originally had the 200hp VR6 motor, 6-speed manual, 17" sport wheels, no ground effects or anything, a twin-pipe exhaust, regular sport seats and pretty much regular interior. As you can see, phobiaz's GLI is a VERY different GLI.
