Maybe I just got jipped, but jetta's are a waste of money. I once loved volkswagons, but untill you've gotton a 96 jetta GL, you have no idea. First off the transmission went on mine, after just putting a new one in, just because they don't agree.. Simple things cost dramatically more than a normal car, and for a 96, if you're looking for cheap, deffinatly a VW JEtta is not for you. Also, maybe it's just the GL, but it only costs $13 - $14 to fill up depending really on how cheap your gas is; but however it EATS gas. Not because something is wrong; it plain EATS your gas. I go through a tank a day, usually only lasting me about 200 miles.. and my old car, a sebring last up to 350. This car is rediculous.
