From what I've heard, they're as reliable as Japanese automakers.
Yup, same maker; IMO a VW is a much better value than an Audi and the stuff that comes stock on them is nice. Like I believe the stock stereo is make by Blaupunkt, anyway, I've owned 2 Jettas. And once you find a mechanic who is one of those weird VW fanatic/wizard/obsessive guys, upkeep is really reasonable. Just the dealerships DO charge a lot in my experience.
