2006 VW Jetta 2.5 and 2000 Pontiac Grand Am GT1

My dad's new DD and my pride and joy. He got it last summer...traded in a Dodge Durango for it.

The interior of the VW looks really 'blah' to me.

I dont care for VW's but they are nice, and run smooth for the ones I have driven.

nice GA man. makes an excelent 1st car (i would no). keep taken care of it. i agree with Bryan on the VW.
my dad has a yellow vw bug. its manual so i ocasionally drive it just to sharpen my skills with a stick shift. other then the trany i find no reason it could be any nicer then my GA. the interior on it is kinda boring too. just not my cup of tea really. anyays keep up the good work on the GA

actually if you pay close attention to the commercial...one of the cars they smash is a ford focus...which happens to be what i had before i got the GA!

GA looks great, trading in the Durango for the VW was a smart idea. (Gas wise)

well it has a few different configurations: 6 Speed Auto, 6 Speed Auto Stick, and 5 Speed Sport mode (raises the shift points)

he hardly uses sport cuz he knows how to drive a manual.

Specs:
2.5L Inline 5: 150 hp, 170 tq...but i doubt that based on the butt dyno....

i wish he would have got the 2.0L with the turbo...it would have more power than the GA
