Looking to buy a 2005 Jetta or Golf. My question is, is the ridebetter in a Jetta or basically the same.
TheGolf is a little cheaper in price and more affordable and if it's basically the same car then I would go for a Golf but I'd rather get a Jetta.

Thanx

 

i have test drive them both and i think the rides the same but that just me

 

I am selling my 2005 GLS Volkswagon Golf 2.0. It has a little under 24,000 miles on it. The GLS comes with just about everything eccept leather. It is an automatic. It is in pretty good condition. We bought the sevice plan with the car so it has had the 5,10,15,20K mile mantinence done, and I think that stays with the car as long as you can take it to the South Bay VW dealership. I do need to replace the windsheild though. A rock chipped it. This just happened last week. And there is a little scufff on the real bumper. Hit a light pole at idle speed. Other than that the car is in great shape. The pay off is 16,900 on this, agian, I am willing to be VERY FLEXIBLE on this.

 

They are pretty much the same in all aspects, though VW Golf parts are much more cheaper than the Jetta... Just in case your thinking of a lesser cost when it comes to maintenance...

 

true, even the back seat is kind of the same, you'd think the 4 door would have a lot more room but it really doesn't.
the ride felt the same though as far as i could tell between my GTI and a GLI we test drove.
