i bought this car for the gas mileage and man does it have so many other good qualities. it gets roughly about 32 mpg highway. It's such a fun car to drive as well, great handeling, great braking, and somewhat quick, and there are a lot of upgrades that are available

Pros — gas mileage, performance, well built
Cons — none so far

Reviewing: 2001 Used Volkswagen Jetta GLS TDi

I can't say anything bad, after all my cars 7 years old and it looks new, and still runs great. It drives just as I though, which was pretty damn good. I really wish I had gotten Manuel though but for living in a small town I think I would have hated it. I got my car for 7K and that's pretty good. My Jetta is Silver with black interior. It has black leather which is really cool, and all the extra options Jetta's came with that year. But one thing it didn't come with was a CD player. It had a Compact player "which had to go". So now my car has a pioneer radio in it. The engine is a 2.0L and runs great. I Although the newer VW's look ok, I like the older 2000-2004 models better, like mine. The only thing I could not figure out is while cleaning the car for the first time, I had found the word Jazz in the manuel and one the back of my trunk. I later replaced Jazz with 2.0 on the trunk lid. I called up the last owner and got in to a conversation about the car and some things I might want know. After talking he told me that he called his car Jazz (Named after his favorite TV shows character) Fresh Prince of Bellair's Jazz. So that was the story, and I kept the name. Overall my car is the best car I owned, although I'm not gonna go into my 1976 Corvette Stingray, that's another story.

Pros — Everything is great
Cons — It has  about 80000 miles but I'm not afraid of high miles, after all it's reliability rating is very good till 200k Miles.

This is my first VW, gotta love the 1.8 20V Turbo, pretty fast little car and also sporty, I've hit 134MPH in it.  You can still feel the turbo at those high speeds too.  Gets about 30MPG, my only complaint is that the check engine light comes on quite often.   

Pros — Turbo
Cons — CEL

My car has been highly customizable so far and I had taken advantage of that. With the turbo upgrade coming soon it will compliment the addons already present. Without throwing it up on a dyno I would guess that I am producing 265hp at the crank and maybe more than that in torque. The car handles well and feels very solid.

Pros — Upgradable and smart design
Cons — a couple electrical quirks

Reviewing: 2001 Used Volkswagen Jetta GL TDi

I upgraded from a regular to a diesel for my 2nd car.  This car runs well.  As my friend put it, "Oooh, diesel power".  She has a few nicks and is missing a mirror, but my dad and I are working on her.

Pros — Awesome running car.  Good mileage.  About 50mpg town.
Cons — Needs a/c, passenger mirror, paint touch up, fix hood, get sheetrock screws out of rear of car.
