Got the 2005 1/2 New Jetta!! (pics tommrow)

[AC_A340-500]

The main problem is, that it is over priced at $23,000 you can even get a V6 Honda Accord.

Overpriced?? That's about 1/3 less than the same car will cost here in Germany once it's introduced. 23K USD is a smokin' deal. No doubt about it!

Newsflash!!!! In this country we're free to do what we want (within the realm of being legal)....and as such I'll drive my 355 cubic inch (that's ~5.7 liters for you Euro folks) all day long sucking down the gas at a rate of about 8 miles per gallon.

Newsflash II!!!!!! Because toodling up to the speed limit in a 85hp econo-box is not my idea of fun nor enjoyable. 46 cyliners? Wow....that would be something, but 8 is enough for me now. You'll be happy to know my other 5.7L engine gets just about 30mpg on the highways and about 18 around town.......and it'll still drop the hammer on most everything out there. lol

Just having a little fun. Let's remember some people enjoy having fast cars.

Couldn't have said it any better myself!...

whats the deal with big engines? Newsflash!!!!!!!! Fuel is not an infinite resource.

Newsflash II!!!!!!! I'm not sure if my common sense is absurd but; why would you want a 46 cylinder engine when small engines easily reach the speed limit?

Congrats and make sure the Climatronic will work very fine (black body + black upholstery + moonroof) especially on high heat and vertical sunny days.

Because everybody goes above the speed limit anyway (well they do around here)

The Avalon is a big car....it NEEDS a bigger engine. And why is a 3.5L V-6 "crazy?"

Nice car by the way.

Nice car. For $3k more you could have gotten an 05 Avalon and that thing is just plan sick now. 3.5L V-6 in any car is crazy!!!

Its the same, the only difference is the color of the upper dash and the white gauge faces on the 05.

Look again. The whole center panel is different (from the radio on top down to the airconditioner controls.

The picture of the Corolla interior you've shown there is not of the 2005 Corolla.

This is what the '05 Corolla interior looks like:

do you really need a display to show you that the door is open? Are we really that lazy that we can't turn our neck 90 degrees?
