Yeah...kind of boring. Kind of like a jelly-beaned TSX.

Actually I thought it was a TSX and then my friend said no that's the ugly thing volkswagen is making. And then everybody pointed and laughed. Well not really, but it made them ask what they did with a nice looking car...

I didn't think they were out yet, but this was by the dealer.

that car will take some getting used to. i guess over the next 8 years VW keeps the design, it'll grow on me. :chuckles:

is it just me, or did the Jetta keep the same style for the longest?

The plus is that, there's more room in the rear. My friend's MKIV rear is terrible for taller people (people taller than 5'5").

Kind of odd they went with a 5cyl 2.5li motor with 6pd auto

It could be the hottest car in the world, but it's still a VW and won't end up in my driveway
