2007 Volkswagen Jetta

Pros: Great Gas Mileage
Cons: Space

I love this car! Great gas mileage. I feel so safe in driving my family around, the only thing that I have a complaint about is the back seat isn't large enough to quite fit a carseat sitting backwards for two fair sized adults in the front. My husband and I had to squeeze the carseat in and sit closer to the dash to make sure that the car seat was safe.

Pros: Engine, engine, engine, gearbox Build quality and all materials used are high end
Cons: None, for the price.

VW GLI an AMAZING machine. Drive it, it's really that simple. Style is subjective, but the performance is not, the GTI won Automobile Magazine car of the year for 2007 and the GLI takes it to another level.

UPDATE *September 2007 18K miles later*
Still feeling that loving feeling here ladies and gents.
GLI continues to perform and to date, only a software update for any sort of recalls. I have noticed a few quirks at times meaning, a service light came on and left by itself. We have snow on it's way here in a couple of months, I'll be fitting the ride with good snow tires and report my findings in cold weather handling, performance and reliability.

*end*

If you really enjoy driving, this engine will bring a grin to your face everyday. What I was left with after my first drive, was how solid the car felt, 28MPG...if I'm easy on the pedal, I can hit 32MPG. Overall, with a heavy foot you will see 25MPG, still outstanding when you factor that this car has 200HP.

VWGLI has street cred and can still pull off being a mature ride.

Pros: Tiny player with plenty of volume
Cons: Lacks SRS stereo expander

I bought a blue one for me and a pink one for my dear wife. The Sansa Clip 2 fits within the palm of my hand. The player has more than enough song memory for my needs. Last week I listened to the player for nearly 8 hours straight on a long airplane trip and the player still had plenty of battery power left when I landed. To load the player with MP3 files you can ignore the SanDisk instructions and just follow the Windows Media Player (latest edition) prompts. The unit has sufficient audio power but lacks an SRS stereo expander function that is contained on my even smaller IRiver MP3 player. I do wonder how random the shuffle play pick list is because the shuffle tends to favor a few songs by the same artist in a row. This is a nice player to take with you to the health club.

Pros: Performance, Look
Cons: Safety, mileage on the low side

I purchased this car a month ago. I have one MAJOR item I want to touch upon here. Three weeks into owning this car there was a MALFUNCTION WITH THE AIR-BAG SYSTEM. Basically, there was a faulty switch in the seat-belt buckle that shut down the entire system! But what made this problem worse, the warning light turned off even though the switch was broken.

For a company that prides itself on safety, what more can I say?

Pros: Power and sporty looks
Cons: Noise at high speeds, bad design.

I drove about 600 miles on this car the 2.5 model, it has too much noise, too much vibration at high speeds. Has no stereo controls on the wheel, the oil meter is too small, so I at a point didn't realize that my gas was empty, until I heard the low fuel noise.
Otherwise, it had good power, acceleration is not bad.
The doors are too stiff, one need to be a body builder to open the doors and the back trunk hood(or you'll have great biceps after constant usage of this car)
For a tall person like me, not enough leg space, even very little room between the brake and the gas pedal, my leg was touching either.Gas mileage was about 29 in the Hwy and 20 in the city.
Looks sporty.
I would recommend a 06/07 Hyundai Sonata as miles ahead from this car.
