Bottomline is most of us have had or know someone whose had some seriously bad experiences with VW in general. Despite these shortcomings and manufacturing quirks, VW does have a STRONG following and some of the most loyal customers in existence. (This sort of explains why Saab is still in business.)
I think a big part of VW's allure is the fact that it's not some generically styled, personality lacking Japanese/Korean model and is considered by some folks to be a BMW/MB primer. (The latter especially applies to 'just out of college kids' who plan to model their car buying after their career growth: Jetta/Golf > 3 series BMW/C Class > E class/5 Series > 7 series/S Class)

Nice car. They look great and are (now with the 200 HP engine) quick, too. High quality details. Although the reliability won't be like a Nissan product, they are still decent.
Screw the guys who say they are for ghey guys. They're concern about a car being ghey indicates they have issues with their own sexuality. Any man who is truly comfortable with himself can do whatever the hell they want. Just look at Poison. Dude, those femms pulled so much hootie it ain't even funny. Makeup and all.

Until you drive the newer model Jettas don't say a word please.
I almost bought one but they could never get the one I wanted after waiting a month. The car is defintely more refined than the Maxima 2001 model I had. The seats are better (2002 they put better seats in the Jettas), and many other updates.

Wink, wink..... Uh, yeah you're right the Jetta has a much more luxurious interior than the Maxima!! Wink, wink.
In all seriousness, the Jetta VR6 has a great looking exterior and it is a solid, reliable ride. But from a luxury standpoint, you cannot even begin to compare it to the Maxima.

From AutoWeek...VW is one of the best for interior.
AutoWeek:
The Z's interior has a way to go to meet the quality of Honda or Toyota, let alone industry leader VW/Audi. A plastic panel covering a storage bin, really a vacuous spot where a navigation system screen would sit, is one of the more ill-fitting pieces we’ve seen. It not only looks bad, it doesn’t work right, wiggling side to side and binding in its operation. We’d complain less about such a small matter if Nissan didn’t boast of best-in-class interior quality on this car or others. Still, the interior is not so much “bad,” as that it under-delivers on Nissan’s promise that no one will get in this car and feel let down by the interior quality in this price category.

True the interior of Jettas and Passats do look pretty nice. I've been in it, and I liked it. They're still gay though...

The BUG with its flower holder of course is, the Cabrio is as well. But the Jetta is just another 4 door car.
So don't say its gay when it isn't. I see alot of guys driving them as well as women. ****, I see more women driving Maximas than men where I live, so should the Maxima be classified as a gay car?

I actually like the look of the car a lot. I always thought a slammed Jetta VR6 with a spoiler and some 18"s would look awesome! And it was in my top 5 choices of cars. The cheesy interior and horrible body sway ruled that car out. And good luck putting 3 passengers in the backseat.
And I have seen the 2002. I just realized my mormon buddy's is a 2K2. I honestly did not see that much difference between the 2k and the 2k2.

The best car by far was a Mitsubishi Eclipse. That one was sweet. But I passed on it because of Mitsubishi's reliability and outrageous insurance (not to mention a VERY cheesy interior- The Jetta is a Benz compared to the Eclipse interior....)

I see more black people driving Maximas than white people where I live, so should the Maxima be classified as a black person's car?

This has nothing to do with race.
Generally speaking, women prefer "cute" cars that are effiminately styled, but don't give you much in terms of performance. Cars like the Cabriolet, Civic, and Jetta fit this description. It just seems a little odd that a guy would sell a Maxima to get into one of these cars. Either he's trying to attract more poontang with a "cuter" car, or well... you know.

Does a manly man actually drive a plain jane four door sedan of any type? Come on people. I dont think the Civic, Jetta, or Eclipse are girls cars, plus I'm really curious of how you got the info that only gay people drive Jettas. Do the gay Jetta drivers get along with the macho Maxima drivers that beat S4 drivers easily??? Oh, I digress...

On the upside to the Jetta, i think they created a beautiful looking car and you all have to admit that they don't have one thing that ****es most of us off so much about the Max, WHEEL GAP! Also, the 1.8T is very cheap to mod for some amazing HP gains, (even tho he did get the VR6, i would've taken this sucker)... Congrats
#72
Actually if I was in the market all over again for a new four door, I'd take the GLI VR6 over a new Maxima. Thats just me though.
You call a Jetta vs Maxima comparison unfair.....oh really? It seems that any car the Maxima can (allegedly) beat is fair game, but any car it cant is not. What sort of comparison logic are we using here?

I've been given rides in and racing a Jetta all last week... it's the little things that make me like this car. The interior is so solid and nice compared to Maxima interiors. With frankencar, I think I've worked on just about every year Maxima available ... and I think I have a valid point. Jetta vs. Maxima in handling, german handling is definately really good. Not the best (some body roll) but better than the Max.
In the Maxima's defense, the VQ still owns me. But that's obvious because I know much more about Maxima's than VW's . The interior room is also pleasing after a while. The Jetta still felt small coming home from racing... made my muscles a bit sore. .
I like the Maxima, but the Jetta definately should be given credit, who cares whether or not its gay, as long as you're happy...

All I will say is that:
God's Chariot = Maxima
You guys have once again proved how biased this site is.
And once again many of you have proved in words how childish you are.
Adults don't call cars Gay, or words like that. So grow up.
My .02 cents.

As for the Jetta vs Maxima comparison, we ARE comparing apples and oranges: The Maxima's competition in the VW arena is the Passat NOT the Jetta. When I was shopping around for a replacement for my Accord, I considered the Passat (as well as the Accord EXV6 and Acura 3.2TL). The Jetta was never a consideration as it's a kiddie car (i.e.: Civic Si). (Though most of the folks in my job's parking deck with Jettas ARE women, I don't think its fair to call them 'Gay')
As for us singling out the Jetta because the Maxima can outperform it and not aiming at others that may be better is very untrue!! A simple search of this forum will reveal loads of 'Maxima vs TL-S', 'Maxima vs GSXXX' and 'Maxima vs BMW' threads. In each of these instances, the Maxima is being compared to cars (IN THIS CLASS) that are at a minimum equivalent to if not better than the Max.
For most of us, going from a Maxima to a Jetta IS a step down by virtue of the fact that you'd be going from a midsize sedan to a compact sedan. (My Maxima's replacement will be a 540i, which I would deem as its a lot more car than the Max.)
Again, I won't don't want to disrespect ScreamingVQ because ITS HIS MONEY TO SPEND. ScreamingVQ, enjoy your new toy bro.
Peace.
