I like these a lot actually. I just wish they didn't decontent this generation so much.

The GLI was never decontented. It was always the full package.

and priced appropriately.

The new ones should be much in par with what people "expect" from a Volkswagen. My sister has a 2011 Auto, and yes, its plasticky, but I found nice touches like all four windows down, and the feel of the buttons, and the trunk opening automatically nice and different.

28k isn't that bad for what you get.

The full package is 30k. I suppose you are right. Not so bad.

Power needs to go to the right wheels.

More realistically, a wagon form should be in order: GLI SportWagen.

They made one for a year. No one bought them

Future classic?

I guess it kind of makes sense, why spend more for a SportWagen when you can just buy a GTI.?

I would be more inclined to red, as they don't sell non-GLI Jettas in red here.

I love these too. a lot. after the juke, it's a toss up between a new GLI and a challenger as my next car down the road.

If I were getting one, i'd get the base model, and give the money saved to the good folks at APR

They're nearly impossible to find. And they're undercover because they're not a GTI/GLI. They look normal and were called the JSW SEL but carried the changes from the other two.

It depends on which version. A regular one, yes. But with the additional red accents of the 30th Anniversary Edition, a neutral color would make them pop more.

We do. We've got 13 currently spread out across Autobahn, 30th Edition, and 30th/Nav trim levels.

I'd get an Autobahn or 30th Edition for the addition of a sunroof and better wheels. Just skip the Nav and use that to pay for stage 1.

Oh that anniversary edition is so nice. I like how every Volkswagen wheel looks good in every Volkswagen.

Yeah man. And I like how they changed up the Laguna by doing it lighter for the 30th. Give it a different personality.
