For the best video experience, we recommend wearing a good set of headphones for the POV Test Drive at 2:50. The audio in this video was recorded with binaural microphones that, when played back through headphones, give the feel of 3D sound. Trick stuff.

This video is a piece of art! No stupid vicious talking people describing things and possibly influence into our minds. You FEEL the car and drving experience, you can make your own criteria by just looking at this video. My conclusion, this year's car suspension is stiff, not as hell, but stiff. Super Videos! Too good I found a treasure, keep them like that, no voice.

I was doing a bit of research into getting a 2012 jetta se and ended up here. Dude this video was practically therapeutic. You've reassured my decision into this car, I want that kind of relaxing drive! Edit got a silver 2012 2.5se with 70k from carvana delivered on new years eve that morning and I been loving it!

@Randomson91 2 жыл бұрын

@@PerfectGamer100 I couldn't make any complaints about it, motor and transmission held up good. I was just starting to get some slight chain rattle right when I traded it in about a month ago, headliners also started coming down tho that seems to be common among vw after a while. Beyond that it was a champ on road trips. I suggest finding one with 4 disc brakes instead of rear drums like mine had. I believe 13 and above started having them standard across the board.

I was really surprised how it handled that entrance ramp at 3:55. And I love the 5 cylinder sound, too. This Jetta reminds me a lot of my first car - a base 1995 Volvo 850 Sedan with a 5-speed manual and non-turbo inline 5.

But from driving my old car a 99 Acura CL that had 155k when I got it and went bad on transmission 20k miles later it's gonna take some getting used to. But the overall handling of it is impressive in my book:) and the base model is enough for me.

Keeping in mind it's a 4 door people carrier, it is indeed fun to drive. Maybe not as much as the gli or a wrx, but plenty good for its' price point. It can feel sporty or economical, however you feel like driving it. Prefer the manual, but the auto in sport mode also does well.
