    I was debating between anniversary edition or autobahn. Ended up with the autobahn. Great car! With that being said. Great video!

      I like the no moonroof and more stripped down style of the 40th. Makes it feel more like the sports cars I grew up on. Can’t go wrong either way

    I bought a white 40th anniversary manual yesterday. Great value, great looks and fun to drive. Cloth seats comfortable, supportive. Manual shifting is very smooth. Ride is very good also. Best value out there, less expensive than civic si and faster, more comfortable seats for me.

    • @LegendInThaMakin
      @LegendInThaMakin 6 месяцев назад +2

      The best part of the Jetta is the fact that it isn’t a Honda civic. The civic is a bit too common, it’s makes the Jetta feel a bit more special to drive.

    i love the GLI! i think it's going to be my next move from my MK5 GTI. if i'm not mistaken, though, the current gen GLIs are built on the MK7 GTI MQB platform, so it's getting the MK7 GTI drivetrain. the MK8 GTI makes more power in its newest generation, but honestly you can just get a Stage 1 unitronics on your 3rd generation EA888 motor, and push oover 300hp/ 300lb-ft torque.

    • @Reallseb
      @Reallseb  7 месяцев назад +1

      Yes it’s on the mqb platform! Tons of aftermarket support, endless opportunities. I don’t keep things stock though so the stock power was never my concern. I’m filming a video going over the Mqb platform, that will drop in about a week:)

    I’ve got a 6MT in white and it is my favorite car ever. What value for the price. It’s a shame that the stock tires are as bad as they are, I had to replace those immediately.

    Thinking about trading in my 22 Civic SI for this.. thoughts? Only downside I see is the lack of premium audio (Bose with Honda). What do you guys think of the GLI audio?

    • @Reallseb
      @Reallseb  8 месяцев назад +1

      The audio is great for what it is. If you want premium audio, go with the Autobahn trim. The Autobahn’s have the Fender audio system which comes stock with a built in subwoofer & great door speaker

      The GLI beat the SI in every aspect, the question is what do you like the most, Honda or VW.

      @joeschepis Месяц назад

      I was not sure about the red accents in front initially but I have received many favorable comments. The car in white is a "looker". The manual is fun.

      The 40th anniversary does not unfortunately, you can always install it. If you’re looking for creature comforts, you should definitely pick up the Autobahn!

    I preferred the boxier look of VW's in the late 80's/Early 90's personally. After that era, all cars ended up looking like different versions of a Saturn. Still kind of do in my opinion.

    It does not have navigation and remote engine start.. which you may opt out for autobahn, but still does not have navigation

    • @Reallseb
      @Reallseb  7 месяцев назад

      It has Apple car play & android play, which is arguably better than your basic navigation system. Remote start is only necessary in cooler climates. If you want R/s anyway, you can add it on for an extra $500

    do the capacitive buttons bother you while driving. any accidental touches.

    • @Reallseb
      @Reallseb  5 месяцев назад

      I read your question wrong lol. No they don’t bother me, you have to intentionally push them, they’re haptic (kind like an iPhone when you re-arrange your apps). When you push them, there’s an obvious feedback that you can feel. I’ll make a Yt shirt video on it tomorrow lol

    @mmaldonadojr 7 месяцев назад +1

    What I didn't get about this anniversary edition is that it lost the openable roof and the electric adjustment of the driver's seat. I liked the black wheels, but the black trim of the mirrors and door handles are ugly IMO.

    • @Reallseb
      @Reallseb  7 месяцев назад

      The reason the 40th doesn’t have those things is because it’s paying homage to the first Gli. Back in 1984 when the Jetta Gli was announced, it didn’t have power seats, a sunroof, a crazy audio system, or leather seats

    • @mmaldonadojr
      @mmaldonadojr 7 месяцев назад +1

      ​@Reallseb So it would make much more sense if this edition came with stick shift also, since stick shift is already available for the GLI. Cheers!

    • @Reallseb
      @Reallseb  7 месяцев назад

      @mmaldonadojr Yes! The 40th comes in either a 6spd manual or a 7spd dsg/dct!

    • @mmaldonadojr
      @mmaldonadojr 7 месяцев назад +1

      @Reallseb Thanks! By chance all the reviews I saw about the GLI 40 were on the DSG version. BTW, I have the 2023 GLI DSG and love it. For my taste, DSG > Stick > Automatic w/ torque converter. Cheers!
