2002 Volkswagen Jetta GLi review from North America
"Terrific car, more than meets the eye"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Absolutely nothing has gone wrong with this car.
General comments?
Terrific engine and power-train, quick!
Good looks, sounds and a lot of fun to drive.
This car will save your tail if you do something stupid like going into a blind unmarked 15 MPH corner at 50 MPH in the rain (it started gradually and then hooked right suddenly so you couldn't see it was a bad corner). The ABS worked great and I made it around the corner in my own lane, more or less.
I can hardly wait for the R-32 4-motion model, umm, 240 HP and all wheel drive.
