what year?
what are you looking for in a car?
speed? style? MPG?

The people that dissed the jetta I'm going to stereo type as liking RICE type cars(civic, Usually either old people or 17 year olds that got a hard on from watching Fast and the Furious ) or big American gas Hogs( big useless trucks or SUVs)

Depending on the year some Jettas have little electrical problems,mainly the power windows(did tons of research b4 I bought mine).I always liked Jettas and ended up getting a 98 TDI recently(always loved the MK3 body style),which gets 50MPG(better than a hybrid) and will Poo on a civic wile blowing black Diesel smoke all over it(with some MODs of course,stock they are pretty weak)The TDIs are retardedly expensive right now due to gas prices.Usually $2,000 or more than its gas counter part.Diesels hold their value due to superior gas mileage,you can run them of waste veggy oil(free fuel anyone?) and much Long engine life,running 300,000-400,000 Miles is very common for a diesel engine,O yea and the Low end Torque

Do a carfax on any car before you buy anything.. research,research,research, know what your buying and driving
