IMO, the wheels and tires don't fit the proportions of the rest of the car. Too small or something. Otherwise, nice.

While the back end is nice...the front just doesn't look 'Jetta' to me, needs a more square look to it...

Basically, VW went GM and decided to save money by making the Jetta a Golf sedan

However, besides the looks, the MkV is one heck of a car...(plus imo the new GTI is gonna dominate the sub-compact market...)

ack, the shape of the body looks like some bastardization of an Infiniti G35 Sedan and a chevy coblat...which is bad.

Yeah, the S40 is what the MkV Jetta should have been...

In fact, I think alot of guys over at VWVortex said the same thing...

I agree with you about the GTI. I love that car.

The Jetta has always been a Golf sedan here........... the size ip (which I beleive was a jetta in the states) was called a Passat??
