I feel like everytime I watch a jetta GLI video I am reminding how much better the Golf GTI and the other sedan competition is

Are there non-black rims available? I hate black rims. lol

Amazing Mexican Engineering! I love it

I enjoyed the video and thankful he mentioned ride height. I’m comparing compact cars and I liked and subscribed.

I don't want manuals ect to go away they are building transmissions that fail at least a manual you treat it right 1 x every 100k miles clutch change but the cvts are garbage and don't last and can't be fixed only replaced I wish manufactures would get in trouble when they build stuff that breaks cause they keep getting away with it

Well all cars have Lane-keeping assist, Blind Spot monitoring etc; including manuals.

This guy is giving incorrect info. The Elantra N is a couple grand more (36-38k fully loaded). Plus the Elantra N has very mixed engine reliability (Hyundai across the board has major issues with engine reliability). The GLI is a fantastic car and for the money you cant beat it. This is the worst car review (and reviewer) I have ever watched. The reviewer must be from Silverlake and buys $20 smoothies from the Erewhon. Jalopnik you can do better.

No the Elantra Sport 1.6 L doesn't come with a manual.

just realised, I dont want to watch jalopnik anymore, unsubscribed

How can the Hyundai Elantra N be on enthusiast shopping lists? I’m pretty sure that none of the States allow the legally blind to drive.
