Zoom zoom.

One year left on the lease. I drive this. ($19K) I've been considering this, (low $20K's) but we'll see how it looks in real life come October. The other day, Her Worshipfulness saw a commercial which offered a low price, and thought we should get this ($17 K). My boss seems to think he pays me enough to suggest I look at this ($30K), but he clearly hasn't looked at a budget report recently. So, anyone got any recommendations?

I do love my Jetta (almost beyond reason...), but I'm not sure I'd recommend it. I haven't had too many problems in the 2 years I've had it - but weird stuff seems to happen with them. Like, getting in the car one morning and the stereo doesn't work. When I took it in, I was told - oh, that happens at least once to every Jetta owner; it's a simple fix, no problem. My response - well, if you know it happens on EVERY Jetta, why hasn't anybody thought to fix that obvious problem? Then there was the day I put the passenger side window down and heard a loud thunk and the window wouldn't come up anymore. Another quirtk that seems to happen to every VW owner at one time or another - again, because the window parts are made of plastic. It's built to break - just hope it breaks while it's still under warranty or you're screwed. Cause the warranty isn't all that great. In fact, it's downright crappy...I'm actually thinking, as much as I love my Jetta, that I'll trade mine in when the warranty goes away.
