Okay, so I am new here, but I figured that some would like an Oppo Review of my 2011 Jetta Sportwagen.... who would like to see that? Just wanting to know if it would be worth your time and mine.

You could review anything, and someone here would probably find interest in it. I know that I read it.

Review ALLL da things!! No car too uncool for an oppo review. I reviewed a 1992 Ford Tempo on here.

You could just review the steering wheel and we'd find it fascinating.

And also pick apart why your number scale makes no sense! (This is a joke about the Jalopnik 0-100 review scale, which originally seemed to be completely arbitrary. It's better now.)

A completely biased one since it's my car?

I'd read it. Any opportunity to learn more about a car is good in my eyes.

The general feedback is good... so it is a yes!

Absolutely!

Doooo it...do a good job and I can share over to Car Buying....whatever format you choose us fine. But here is what would be helpful for my readers....why did you buy it? What else did you consider? How do you use it? What do you like? What do you not like? Would you recommend?

Keep in mind these questions are just things to think about how you deliver the answers is totally up to you.

As a fellow jetta driver, but one who drives the sedan, i'd love to hear a take on the wagon!
Also, I like what you did with your name there! :D

Thanks! TBH I love it, but that may be because it is my first car haha

wait it is? Awesome!!! such a jalop first car!!! My "first" car is the jetta you see in my avatar pic! I love it and it's 2.5 to death! what engine/trans do you have in your car?

Sportwagen, Is Sad > PetarVN, GLI Guy, now with stupid power
07/26/2014 at 16:35

Neat! It has the 2.0L TDI with a 6 speed manual which I love because it feels fast, even though it has somewhere around a 9 second 0-60.

07/26/2014 at 16:40

Oh dude! manual diesel wagon! nice pick! full jalop mode!
Mine's actually my mom's. It's a 2.5 5-pot (DAT engine sound!!!) and a 5-speed stick. if I push it, I can get to "60" (59mph) in 2nd gear. It's a quick car, and drives like a champ! I love it a lot.

I can do it in third (barely lol). Second tops out at 50, but I try to not go over 4k rpm because no torque and the engine sounds like it has several wrenches thrown in. I have actually put almost 75k miles on this particular car and it has had NO problems whatsoever :) Probably just my luck LOL

We have only 18K on our 2011.5 SE. since both my mom and I drive lively, it has seen it's top speed limiter in a couple of occasions. we drive our cars hard, and then wash them afterwards (hard as well!) ours is trouble free as well! and mine grows a soul ONLY after you get it over 3500rpms!

07/26/2014 at 17:15

Mine only revs to 5k haha :) It loves between 1750 rpm and 4000 rpm... the diesel does its job well even if it wasn't designed to do it like this ;)

PetarVN, GLI Guy, now with stupid power > Sportwagen, Is Sad
07/26/2014 at 17:19

mine redlines at 65oo I think, but can go to 7k if need be!

Sportwagen, Is Sad > PetarVN, GLI Guy, now with stupid power
07/26/2014 at 17:21

Well I feel bad if I accidentally bounce it off the rev limiter at all, so I usually try to keep it so if I miss a gear it won't redline and destroy itself.

07/26/2014 at 17:22

That, and I am only 17, so if I destroy it, I don't get another one LOL

So... Should I review my dad's Prius? What about the family Sienna?

well, i'm only 16, but i'm getting a juke nismo in 12 days as my actual first car :D

07/26/2014 at 18:00

Wow, what color will it be?

PetarVN, GLI Guy, now with stupid power > Sportwagen, Is Sad
07/26/2014 at 18:05

Black, with red striping! of course, a 6-speed will be attached to that sweet 1.6Turbo, 215hp engine!

I wrote a really detailed review on my S60R and it got like 1,400 views.

I wrote a shitty review on my 2015 Corolla LE Rental Car, and it got like 3,000 views.

You'll definitely get views, it just may surprise you!

If I'm bored enough tomorrow, I may review an '09 Audi A5. Stay tuned!

BTW - if you're a member VW Vortex or whatever VW People look at, prepare to possibly get shit on by them. I got destroyed on Swedespeed because I said the R's Handling wasn't that good.
