Thanks for the video! I loved my MK6 GLI that I sold three years ago. Very happy with my truck, but now I need a car I can put some miles on in addition. This helped convince me lol. I was on the fence with the 1.4T because I’ve heard nothing about it; nothing negative or positive. Appreciate the upload!
I paid msrp for mine with the tech package exactly as yours. Great car for the price especially in a manual. 45+ mpg on the highwayt? Sign me up. no rebates on mine except the lifetime warranty the dealership offered and the extended bumper to bumper I paid for was a great deal especially after reading the fine print on the electronics covered and physical stuff like alternators. Great car that will last me a lifetime. Excited since putting 500 miles into it. Oh to edit the warranty for also for life and easily transferable.
Well- I’ve had 2 other VW’s… a Golf back in the late 80’s early 90’s and a Jetta in the late 90’s and now a 2019 Jetta S. I traded a Dodge Charger 6 cyl for the Jetta - and honestly I absolutely love the Jetta. Yeah it’s maybe not as aggressive looking as the Charger - I feel it is more agile and more fun ti drive then the Charger was. The gas mileage is amazing - can’t get any better without being a hybrid. It has plenty of room and more power than I will ever need. I’ve never had major issues with prior VW’s . It’s an awesome car!! For the price point it was a no brainer. The only regret is I wish it was manual but otherwise no complaints
I got a brand new for 18k same base model with driver assistance it's such an amazing deal for the price the sound system is great Apple and Android car play and its super quick not fast but it will get up to speed if you need it to.
Just bought one, 2021 with 6k on it. Very nice riding car and it's easy to get in and out of as I'm a big guy. The only disappointment I have is that it doesn't have satellite radio. I'm trying to explore my options and see if it can be added.
I'm considering a 2021 Jetta S right after Christmas. Last June I bought a Subaru Legacy Touring XT (top trim for that model). It was $38,000 and I paid cash. Then my life took a u-turn and I decided to buy a lot out of state and build a home on it. I need all the money I can get for that project. I can still get $37,000 for the Legacy and the VW dealer will sell me their last 2021 Jetta S for MSRP. With a $500 rebate it'll be a bit over $23,000 with California tax and license (rip off state). I'll get 14K out of the deal to apply towards the house. I think I'll be OK with the Jetta. While its not going to have nearly the bells and whistles the Legacy does its should still be comfortable enough for driving on the highway long distances. Plus the extra 10 MPG will be nice.
I traded a 2020 jeep Cherokee I hated for this Jetta I love the car be glad when I get it back guy slammed into back of my car and only did 3300 in damage
@@mariettadashcam6857 idk if all the dealers near me are ripping me off but the 21 Jetta S was the only new car I could find that was OTD under $25k. Total OTD they gave me was like 24.5 on this which I though was good cuz Civic, Corolla, Impreza, Elantra were all OTD >$26k. Fuck this market
I’m thinking of going from 2021 Tiguan to the Passat or Jetta……I know this is the last year for the Passat & I prefer smaller screen inside & smaller sunroof:) I’m sure a family or someone would love the Tiguan - since not many on lot with chip shortage.
I've never owned a "new" car and I remember back when I was buying my very first car and looking at all those cheap jettas. Never owned one though, 5 cars later Im going to get a new one. lol. Im only going to do the basic warranty though, an extra $3000 for 2 years more doesn't seem like the best value. Plus I may get bored of it after 4 years anyway.
@@Iraqveteran-ke6qu tax and title included? If so, not a bad deal, go for it. If not, try to negotiate any added fees. Clay Cooley tried to dupe me for the dealer add ons, Connected and Protected, and some other b.s. Told them if you don't knock those charges off (an additional 3990) I'm not buying. They changed their mind when they saw me in my car about to leave. Manual, so prolly harder to get rid of
@@djkenny1202 I hope so too but can’t make any promises. The infotainment is a non issue. You get used to it in 30 seconds. I’ve had the car on track, put 12k miles on it in 3 months and haven’t had a single complaint about the infotainment. Even with big hands I’ve never accidentally pressed any of the buttons. Have a couple videos up of my driving impressions as well.
whew 3 and 10 extra HP dont become a speed demon with all that extra speed! My last car was a ford mustang but power just isn't that exciting. Honestly it got annoying pulling up to every stoplight and the car next to you always trys to gun it like we're racing. Although a new jetta would cost me more, I was always paranoid about dinging the mustang because it looked so nice, and parked way in the back of parking lots. Those days are over!
If you want more power get a Apr tune keeps your car stock just adds more pep to it not that this gen needs it honestly I nodded mine my only complaint is the top speed is only 127mph

Glad to help

I have the Sirius XM app on my phone. Maybe you could try that and connect to the radio?
Hey guys how is the oil burning issue on newer jettas? My old jetta burn oil like crazy.

All good reasons. I’d say you can’t go wrong.
That’s not bad price that’s what I paid out door for my 2021 Jetta s in Georgia

Good luck finding a Passat our store hasn’t had them for 2 months. I can only imagine elsewhere.

@alelx jines that 3k going to the finance managers pocket and a part of it going to the salesman lol
Driver assistance package is neither free or 995. It’s $500 and so is the cold weather package.
i got this car, for 21k, manual trans, loving it! i just wish i could add some body mods, anyone got any ideas?
ECSTuning has some options for the Mk7 Jetta. 7 piece kit is nice. $1500
$21k! Where?
@@Iraqveteran-ke6qu I bought mine new in Dallas at Clay Cooley VW Park Cities in October. Manual as well but all they got now are mostly SUVs

The only bad thing is the quality of the speakers. I have one and i love it but the quality of the speakers sucks
Facts.
How does it compare to awd in snow
It doesn't
Why sell it? If they give more on trade in, you still have payments on the new truck. Best is paid off.
Sorry dad

This model Jetta has an anemic engine just 147 HP really crappy. 😐 Prior version was 150 HP and the 2022 has 157 HP.

Who cares? I love my ‘21 Jetta S 6-speed. Goes plenty fast for me. Very content with it.

10:04 SAME
185 hp
The 2021 Jetta S has 147 hp and 185 lb ft of torque.
