**** the Jetta, if you want a VR6 get a Corrado. Mine handled so well, and was damn quick! Plus the Corrado has a nice body style, not like a jetta that you see 1 million of them on the road every day
I think they made it AWD now...

yeah EIP was just getting a name for itself when I started my corrado from hell. Those ******* told me that if I bought a turbo kit from them and they were not the one's to install it I would have no warranty on any of the parts. That was some fucke up ****, especially becouse back then, there were no turbovr6(hey, my name 
) cars running around and they wanted about $7500 for their kit.
So I sourced out my own ****, made 340 to the wheels, and snapped axles every week. hence I sold the car

Have you ever seen EIP Tuning's? I watched it run down a 996 Turbo... No joke.

Yeah, they make fast VDubs.. but only if you're rich enough to keep them interested.

I've owned two Jettas. Didn't like either.
FWD sucks. VW is the Ford of Germany.. so everything freaking breaks constantly. VW gouges for service (although coming from an Rx.. it may not be that bad). Don't bother suping it up. Unless you have drags on, a FWD car isn't going anywhere fast. Even if you have drags on Physics is working against you.
If I had to get another I'd probably get the VR6 with leather. But I'd rather castrate myself with a toothpick first.
The VW might be a less expensive car in the long run than the 7. But if you like having a sports car the VW is not for you.
If you have any more specific questions feel free to shoot 'em my way.
