Should VGA bring the Jetta GLI think Golf GTI with a boot to Australia ?

[MrGTIandRfan]

If they do, it shouldn't be called the GLI. 'GLI' in Australia refers to low rent transport - think Lancer and Civic GLI of the 90s.

Either way, I hope that the rumoured Jetta R with a VR6 engine becomes a reality. Could very possibly become my next car if they release one in coupe form!

I hate the new Jetta and the GLI would make the 147TSI utterly redundant, but I say bring it in ASAP. VW needs to make the new Jetta [at least look] appealing and the GLI does.

But to VW Aus I ask this: WHERE IS THE MANUAL!?

Considering the GLI is the 147TSI with a different face, it wouldn't make it completely redundant. They should offer a GLI "package" for the 147 that would include the skirts, grill, headlights and the wheels. Some cherry red tail lights wouldn't kill either!

^^ I know that I would want mine in manual if I was getting one, and I know a few others who are the same

The Jetta Sportwagon is what we know as the Golf wagon...

I think a sportier Jetta would help differentiate the new car from the MKV shape and lend it some glam... But I'm not really sold on MK6. It's (pretty much) the same engine, box, brakes etc as a MKV and, for me, not worth the changeover.

For what it's worth, I'm a 25yo male, (MKV 2.0T Jetta, had a GTI 1.8T prior) and plenty of my friends in their 20s love the car and would consider one if they can afford it. I don't think it's too fuddy-duddy)

The MK5 and MK6 Jettas are completely diffirent cars,unlike the Golf 5 and 6,which are very similar...

Depending which grill I use on my Mk5, it goes from being a GLI to a Wolfsburg in 10 minutes
