"I just want to do vroom vroom things with my friends" this spoke to me on a spiritual level
STOP !!! As i read this he said this line in the video, lmfaooo that was so weird
@@charliemcquillan4010 same dude it's scary and funny AF lmao
This shit had me weak💀😂😂😂
Every friend group had a VW Jetta involved, don’t lie
I’m that friend with the base model :/
WickedSlow_wrx I’m that friend with a MKV GLI , bc racing coilovers, a ko4 turbo conversion, Black Forest industries everything, a cold air intake and of course a Forge BOV
WickedSlow_wrx lol I’m that friend and I have the nicest and newest car of all of us, picked up a 2014 gli 2 months ago
Those mk4 kids

After 7 minutes of talking about the history of the car: "but we’re not here to talk about the history of the Volkswagen Jetta"😂
I’m meen if you have one it’s good knowledge to have
Jessie you can't bet your dad's car !!!
That's the only thing I could think of
Too soon Jr. Too soon.
Brian I gotta go find Jesse. I’m all the kids got
"so you want a Prius" now that would be a video full of sarcasm; and, I would love to see it hahaha
jamdc2000 the video would be like 5 seconds
“So you want a Prius? Yea leave”
When I was in Tokyo I saw a modded and slammed prius, we might laugh at them but they still mod them out there
Look up Regular Car Reviews. Those guys are something else.
Only two mentions of the diesel. Dammit! Show us TDI guys some love!
Facts
I have one ☝️
Yes
Yes pls
just bought one

I can vouch for this being one of the better beginner cars to start modding. I had a 2011 SE and up grade the spark plugs, coil packs and air filter. It was so much fun to drive. You could actually feel the acceleration in a fun but not "I cant lean forward in my seat" way. You could cruise at a 130 down the highway and STILL get 30+ mpg. The one thing to note is that the 2008-2011 are unibody so if you get in an accident the repairs could cost you 15K plus. 2012 and later would be the better option. The Jetta is also an extremely safe car to drive as well. You will 99.99999999% of the time walk away completely unscathed if involved in an accident.
I have a 2012 jetta comfort line, with most of the bells and whistles except a touch screen. Its peppy and gets good gas, 145000 kms so far, what are the things i should like out for in terms of maintenance?
@@nezamdeham7838 mine doesn’t run too bad at 185k
Yesss he listened😂😂
Right😅
Going from a mk6 tdi to a mk3 tdi was a very good decision. Although it was forced because someone threw a lancer into my mk6, the mk3 is much more fun, and turns heads everywhere I go
That’s why you put a hoodstack on you’re mk6 bypassing the EGR as well as an egr block off plate and a tune
@@ziadajam5433 the mk6 was hoodstacked, tuned and deleted
Im running my mk5 (2007) jetta on stien coilovers, 2.0tfsi and fully modded making 260kw at the wheels. I love it and gave never had any doubts about this car. Not once has it died on me ever
I've never "OOOH!" so fast on the first clip of cars in these videos. Omg some clean banging Jettas
Love my 4th gen 1.8. I use to work for VW have had it for over 10 years now and it will always have a place in the corner of the garage for when summer rolls around
ive been watching VW videos for 4+ hours on a whim, and this is by FAR the most entertaining and overall quality. gg dude
Big ups to y'all at FI for putting out these awesome and highly informative videos though. I can't imagine how much work it takes to create content like this. ❤️ In the meantime, holla notification squad. 😂✌🏾
I now got a mk7 golf but i had a mk6 jetta 2.5 manual. It was a great car. Reliable, fun, big trunk and pretty comfy
I had it lowered on h&r springs and it had alzor 628 with 225/40/18 firestone indy 500 tires. It handles great for a base sedan and the 5 cylinders was awesomen to lisen to it. For the price, it’s a great all around car.
Fun fact: In argentina the four generation it´s called bora because "jetta" means jinx in spanish and the 5th generation was sold as another trim level called "Vento", both at one moment were sold in dealerships as different cars even if in other countries were the same generation.
Edit: spell
How about the borra,polo and scirocco
All are just the same car with different mods
It's called bora in europe but only for the mk4
@@laserworkstv they are not, un fact the Sirocco is a mk5 or mk6 golf underneath, the bora is the mk4 jetta so mk4 golf and the polo is the polo
Day:69
So you want a honda odyssey
Honestly I'd watch tho
Yeah i wanna manual one so bad.
Check out vankulture on Instagram
The more people typing 69 in the chat, the less cool it becomes. Its too overused. Its like calling weed 420, it doesn't even sound cool anymore. Its a middle school thing now.
Im in 1 deadass
Your league references kill me every time. When I'm putting off working on my car (like the cam I have sitting on the table for my camaro) that's usually what I'm doing. We gotta play sometime!
My 2006 VW Jetta is/was my first car. I still own it, I keep it maintained, I adore it so much. It's one of the best cars I have driven. It's fun, it's smooth, it's quiet but it can rev if you want it to, it can be a little racer or a family car! I haven't tuned or modded it any but it's super fun as is to drive.
The intros are just so spicy
Alex The memelord true
Every VW video I love, I went from an 00’ VR6 Golf and now a MK4 r32 and I’ve loved them ever since
I went from a 2008 Kia sephia to a mk5 2.5 GLI, my quality of life has improved dramatically
Got a manual mk6 8 valve 2.slow jetta and even though it's slow as hell I love it. It reasonably cheap to fix and cosmetically it has potential
Mk5 was my first car, I fell in love with it. I also had an e60 530i BMW after I totaled it and now I’m living in Costa Rica many years later trying to hunt down another mk5 because I love it THAT much. In my opinion a truly underrated and well aged vehicle.
What version did you have side, you have the 5 cylinder version?
Got a mk5 with 178k on it and still running strong
I'm glad you guys did the jetta. I've got a mk 3 2.0. Currently restoring it
Finally a Jetta vid gotta say mk6 sport wagon is where it’s at tons of space and tons of fun no complaints well engineered machines extremely easy to modify
Awe man!!! This brought memories of 18 year old me back in 2005 trying to convince my parents why it was better to buy a used Jetta over 20 grand than a new Scion for 17 Gs!!
I loved my MK3 even though it had the 2.0. that car just wouldn't die. I replaced it with an 01 Golf 1.8t. that was a blast. Next up was the 02 Jetta GLX VR6. Still have it as a project car. Next up is the VW family car 13 Passat which is a great daily.
I’m getting my first ever car and it is a mk6 jetta. I was using my mom’s car before. I can’t wait man finally I can drive with my friends 😊
Perfect timing I’ve been able to get a lot of serious work done to my project mk3 Jetta in the past like month
Love your content. You always give excellent info. I would like to see you guys do a segment on the Volkswagen CC.
I love how you guys intro starts..
I’ve owned my 91 Mk2 8V GTi for 17 years now, only because I couldn’t find a clean Mk2 Jetta CLi at the time. She rips and farts every time I kick the loud pedal! A Mk3 Jetta CLi with a G60 engine is definitely my ultimate “if I win the lottery” project car. Keep up the good content dude!
You finally did it, I've been waiting for this video for everrrrrrrr
Mk7 GLI owner: just shut up and buy it. you won’t be disappointed.
In developing markets like Mexico, Jettas are super popular and reliable af. It seems that in the US, they can't stand to have a simpler car that gets the job done.
People here just complain that they’re unreliable. Which is complete BS. Most reliable car I’ve had.
MK6 Jettas are very popular in the States for the same reason.
This is crazy cause I literally went to go look at a 96 Jetta yesterday. Now I’m deeeeef buying it
Had a nice 2001 VW Jetta GLS VR6 back in the days... now after watching this, I miss it. Thanks alot Fitment!!! really... GOSH!!! :P
"Holy shit you get what for gas mileage?"
With a stage 3 tune I still get 45mpg. Or about 8mpg if I floor it............
Best i have got is 50 diesel of course
I've owned 3 jettas
2009 city Jetta
2011 2.0 slow jetta
2019 GLI 35 edition
Ur review pls
Mk4 vr6 Jetta, mk4 vr6 golf, mk3 vr6 golf, mk4 2.0 Jetta, mk4 1.8t Jetta 😁😎👍 the mk3 vr6 got a big turbo and turned into a weekend track beast, 1.8t is currently the daily 👍 absolutely love the cars, endless possibilities.
The GLI is the best I love mine especially as a first car 🤘
I've had a 2008 GTI, 2004 Rabbit but now own a 2006 Jetta 2.5! 🙏🏻
@@daltonroberts7312 haha mk4 for life
I'm not missing out on that vr6 sound..I hear it every day in my corrado.
Finally I have a mk6 Jetta and I’ve been wanting them to make a vid in this for so long
I just copped a 2003 Jetta TDI with 120k miles for $1000.00 and you wouldn’t guess why the crazy price tag... the owner didn’t know how to drive stick and it was a gift. Everything is in awesome condition, interior as well.
Pro tip: check the wealthy areas for sales, a lot of rich people just want to get rid of cars for whatever.
I’ve been waiting for this😂I love my mk5 😂😂
I just picked up my 06 wagon! I'm loving it
I had on '04 1.8T, with headwork and a tune, + GLI trim. To this day i miss that little car.
I will wait until the end of time for the “So You Want A Del Sol” video I swear (‘:
Yessssss del sols are so smooth and look great when they're clean
Lmao! Keep the faith brother, in due time that which thou asketh shall be granted. 🙏🏾
Also titled: "So you want [to find] a CRX".
It's a fwd miata 😂😂
First car at 16 was an 06 2.5L Jetta , I definitely had fun with the sports mode😂
I've got an 03 MK4 2.8L VR6 6 speed manual and I freakin love it!
I've owned 2 mk2 Jetta GLIs and a mk3 GL. Always thought of my mk2s as a poor mans E30. Also the 2.0l 16v in the mk2 is an awesome motor that responds well to tuning. And one on throttle bodies... whoa mama!!! So sweet!
Mk2s have some cool trim levels that should have been mentioned! The gli and gtx had a 2.0 16v (which has a low end rumble similar to the vr6) and factory recaro seats. I currently have 2 mk2 jettas (1 being a gtx) so I might be a little biased tho.
I’m 18 and I really wanted a gti but my parents said no to the hatch and said if I really wanted one that I could get a Jetta instead because it’s got a trunk. Back in February I picked up a 2014 mk6 gli and have loved it ever since. Planning on ordering some wheels and tires soon but I’m gonna do it right and build it slowly to exactly what I want it to be
nice bro i got a 2016 gli 2 months ago and Ive only put in the intake so far. Enjoying the process of building it is what its about. Also getting some wheels pretty soon from these guys
why are parents against hatchbacks i dont get it lol
Ignacio Villasenor haha same, I really like the f1r f29 wheels. I want them in +35 but they only come in +45 so I’m gonna go with a 245 on an 8.5 wide. Follow my Instagram @justagli for some updates and stuff I post most my mods/updates on there when I do them. I’d like to see your car as well and how far it’s coming if u do that kinda stuff
Jonah I have no idea. The car is the same if I get it in a hatch or with a trunk
If you plan on modding it at all, find out if yours is the gen 3 or not. if it is GET RID OF IT NOW trust me.
Got myself one a few days ago, spent 2 days tinkering around with it, lifted it and got myself a bush bar with nice large tires Making all Baja like.
It's both my first car and first mod!
Yesss finally a video for our forgotten cars!
now yall just need to do "so you want a Nissan Hardbody"
Jaydon E the less people know about all that the better. Keep the prices down 😬 cuz they are so sweet
@@mr.doctorprofessor9953 makes sense lol, the most expensive one I've seen was 4k and the worst thing about it was there was a small tear in one of the seats lmao
I would like to see an episode on that but at the same time prices are so low rn
@@mr.doctorprofessor9953 they're already expensive where I live because people love them as work trucks, you see guys lined up with them at home depot
There are a couple near me for sale with custom lay frames with air ride and they are sweeeeet
The Mk 3 Jetta was the first car I decided to go heavy into modifying with. I definitely agree that they all have their little quirks, but it's still one the most fun cars I had the joy and liberty of playing around with. They're a platform you can't really go wrong with on any level, from mild to wild :-D
Ive got a mk4 1.8t jetta with a spicy stage 2 tune with two step that absolutely slaps😩 and i love it
This is my favorite video to date. GOTTA LOVE THE JETTA
I had a tuned mk4 and besides a coolant leak that really should've been looked at before the leak it was a perfect car
That fucking 02 sensor engine light bro, it’s a permanent addition to my instrument cluster ❤️
I had an mk3, mk5 and currently loving my mk6 TDI. Jetta FTW.
Owned a jetta mk6.5 as a 1st. Had it for about 2 years until a prick smashed into it and totalled it to the point of beyond repair. While I still owned it, I was in love with it and everytime I stepped out, locked the car, walked away from it, and each time I turned back to have a look at it, I knew it was the best purchase I've ever made in my entire life. And nope. It was stock.
YESSSS FINALLY ITS OUT!!!!!!
Knew someone with a jetta pushing 340hp and a 2step tune, unfortunately it got wrecked but it was so cool
He's got 288 more than my mk2 coupe 🤣
I'm at 304 on my mk7 GLI with an ie stage 1 tune. She's a rocket
Cuz you used the standard engine😂
Yo... mostly standard egnine block are 3d printed not forged well.
@@MrTheHillfolk That sounds like a 1.6 non turbo Diesel to me. Good engines.
Eyyy another So you want video!
great video Alex :P
I love Jettas. I owned a 98' K2 and a 97' VR6. Might buy another as a winter car.
Very versatile car. Vr6 is amazing especially for $3k. I love the mk4
No love for the 2019+ MK7's?
Just got a 2016 Jetta GLI as an upgrade from my 2013 Elantra, my first "enthusiast" car, and my first manual. Can't even drive it because it had a chip in the wheel that was stopping the tires from sealing, but boy am I excited to actually be able to daily it when it's back
Love your videos man keep up the content.
I wanted you to make “so want a Audi S4” updated version but I realized this is kinda the same thing
Nah it's a different platform.
But it's a different platform. The engines are sideways.
After having one for almost a year, I’m ready for a video called “you don’t want an Audi S4”
fastboatster why? What year do you have? I have a 2011 and its a dream to ride
Every video is one video closer to "So You Want a VW Golf R/Audi S3"
i have an 05 2.0 tdi with no mods apart from tinted windows and 18" alloys, love it as it is
Went through 2 Gen's of Jettas back in the day.... Mk3 (4cyl) and then the MKV w/VR6 in just under 10 years...when VW dropped the VR6...I was in awe..but had seen the writing on the wall years earlier so I wasn't really all that surprised!
My car wasn’t getting done this year anyway but ima point fingers at the Rona for ruining it
I love how you repeated yourself about 50 times in order to stretch out this video past the 10 minute sweet spot
Look, all I’m saying is that I get the hate that the Jettas get but when I was looking for my first car I was intentionally looking for something different. Everyone around me already had STIs, Civics, etc. the usual stuff. I bought a GLI with the gen 3 TSI and I haven’t regretted it since. Modding is easy, with almost an entirely bolt on build you could easily be pushing around 500 wheel reliably on the factory block. Currently I’m pushing just under 400 and I’m having more than enough fun getting into trouble with it. It is a really good sleeper.
500hp? That s crazy
@@David_99778 the 2.0 TSI is a surprisingly well built motor. They even use it in the Audi RS3 DTM cars.
@@Snipedout209 Damn I didn t know. I ll drive my dad s jetta 2011 1.2 tho :))
@@David_99778 I don’t know too much about the 1.2s, I do know people weren’t too happy about the 2.5s although I heard it’s a really good sounding engine, being a 5-cylinder it should sound pretty good. The 1.8Ts I hear are pretty solid. But yeah, the 2.0 TSIs, all you need to run a 500 hp on the factory block are better rods, and clutch. Obviously, you’ll also want to get an intake, intercooler, and whatnot but it don’t take much to get it up to 500, mostly bolt on stuff.
Glad I came across this video. Been looking at picking up an ALH diesel Jetta.
I'm still waiting for "So you want an N54" or "So you want a e9x 3 series"
Zach Veldman yea they’ve done some whack cars an not a controversial borderline legendary engine
Yes, want that video too
Nahhh don't want one, I'm already on my 3rd 😂😂😂😂 that VW employee discount makes the difference
I laugh at the electrical and reliability jokes , but I haven't had one leave me on the roadside in almost 25yrs
@@MrTheHillfolk I'm on my 3rd and only change them because of the deals I can get, no problems except the ones I've caused
Glad yall did this video
BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO FOREVER , I have a Jetta Mk6🇧🇪
I had a jetta mk3 vr6 and sold it. I Regret that to this day. Love the sound of it with the stock exhaust. Jetta mk6 is my next buy but I dont want the 1.4Tsi unfortunately for us we dont get the GLI 2.0tsi.
parnellap 1.8 with a tune in the mk6.5 is faster then a 2.0
jothamzubia my 2.0 is slow asf it might be cause its base
I drive a 2016 Jetta TSi model . My first project car 🤞🏽
My homie drives a purple jetta, quite that car innit.
been waiting for this video for a longgg time😊
I like how I got a bounty paper towel ad the second he spilled the drink 😂😂
Where i live everyone went for the passat. Very few jettas around.
A Passat is just a fancy Jetta, no one can change my mind
I've attained the secret sauce of being on time 😌
Is the secret never leaving?
Same here
@@Macks1913 it is subscribe and turning on notifications
Boy have I been waiting for this one
The Jetta turns 40 in 2024. Great car. I had two in my lifetime. My first one was a MK5 1.9L TDI and now a MK6.5 Jetta Sport 1.8L.
I'm thinking the mk6 facelifts might be more collectable in the future considering they only ran for a few years and have a the non mqb 1.8t in them.
lemon thumb we can’t do shit with the non mqb 1.8
@@jothamzubia @lemonthumb As someone who until recently owned the Facelift '15 Sport trim with the 1.8 for just over 4 years, I'd like to add a little to this. I love the MK6 Facelift look, and honestly if they hadn't done the facelift, I probably wouldn't be here right now. However, a lot of the parts for the 1.8 in terms of exhaust and intakes are compatible with the more performance oriented 2.0. Having now just purchased a 2018 MK6 GLI, the pickings are still slim. EuroTuning has a few more exterior styling options for the GLI over the 1.8 given the different front and rear bumper designs. The 2.0 also opens the doors to more off-the-shelf tunes from companies like Unitronic, APR, and I think COBB just put one out too, BUT, its sad to see that even in the MK6 model year, aftermarket companies still favor the GTI by 10x. I do understand that from a business sense though - definitely more GTI's on the road than GLI's, but from my heavily biased POV, it'd be great to mod this car to my hearts content the same way an individual could with a standard GTI. With that being said, going back to the root of the conversation of VW's holding value, I don't think the Jetta's will hold much value, not even the GLI's. I think the Golf R's over the years will far exceed the collecting ability and desire than any modern Jetta on the road today.
Happy to see love for the Jetta! I love my MK IV VR6 xD (Regardless of the finicky check engine light).
I'm sitting eating A&W in my mk6.5 Jetta GLI. I've owned mk2, mk4, and this mk6.5 Love them all especially Mk4!❤
Duuude, ruedas is the combo of tyres and wheels, wheels alone are “llantas”, but you are improving pretty damn quick ;). Greetings from Spain, keep doing banging videos!
