I was thinking it looked like an ION. I like the styling of the current one but the performance did nothing for me.

not a big fan. the headlights look too big, they fuck up the proportions.

Totally went Japanese with the new design. If I wanted a Carolla, I would get one, but VW has had their distinctive styling, which I have liked.

Oh look, a Corolla... or is it a small Camry. thumbs_down.gif thumbs_down.gif

Please tell me that's a photoshop, that looks hideous sick.gif

Jetta/Golf is going down the shit hole.
clarkma5
The Golf looks great, IMO, but this Jetta is ruined by the rear end treatment, The Golf V front-end does not deserve to be grafted onto a three box sedan, it belongs on a two-box hatchback. The Jetta V needs its own unique front end like the current Jetta (but it ain't gonna get it)
RedLine
The golf looks alright... I've seened some tuned ones that make it look awesome. The lights fuck everything up.


This is a photoshop

Thank God. It doesn't look heavy enough to be a VW.


UH I MEAN it really does look like a Corolla.

Your proof of this declaration is...

With the exception of the front end, it has a remarkable resemblance to the 2003+ Corolla.

So .... is this new generation Jetta going to built in Mexico as well ?

I stand by my theory that VW has not been the same since they started building most of their cars outside of Germany.

I agree. Thats why I only buy vw's with WVW vin numbers.

Well it just seems it's the catchall declaration whenever people see something they find hard to believe. Just wondering if you have some proof.

Well, I can't tell photoshop from real, so I dunno. Its a photoshop says vwvortex.com
clarkma5
A lot of the stuff around the bottom of the car makes me think "photoshop", but hey, even VW uses photoshop to dress up their images, so it can be hard to tell, but it doesn't surprise me one bit that this is a photshop.
RedLine
All fake:

MKV Golf Cabriolet


clarkma5
that's funk-ay, but better. But still funk-ay. (the sedan)

But that cabrio chop looks damn fine.
NorthPoint
Here is a spypic from the vwvortex.com forum...



I don't know, I think it looks like it could be the real thing.

The bumpers arent the same. But hey, lots of vws have different bumper styles.
clarkma5
laugh.gif WTF's up with the camo? I guess it works, but still, that looks silly.

Kinda weird though...I saw that lower grill and immediately though "holden", but the mirrors and headlights are definitely A5 pieces.
RedLine
It seems like everyone is debating if its real or not, but as of now, we will declare them as fake. smile.gif Losts of users are 100% sure they are photoshoped, and a bit think its "the real deal"

clarkma5
Now, those three you posted look more genuine (and a lot nicer)

Wouldn't mind if the Jetta sedan looked like that middle pic...it's got a strong rear-end, reminiscent of the Audi 90 or, more recently, the Phaeton/Audi A8

wagon
NorthPoint
Those are Golf wagons. Not Jettas (or Bora)...
clarkma5
Yep, the Golf Variant (a model the US will never see and probably never will have to) unless it gets badged as the Jetta Wagon in the states, because the Golf V and Jetta V will not have seperate styling (or so the rumors go...)
RedLine
I have pictures of photoshoped MKV GTi's should I make a thread about them?
clarkma5
Ehhh only if they're good, I guess.

Besides, we already have the GTI concept to go on anyway...

I find that a little strange. Why would they merge two model lines in to one?
clarkma5
I dunno, but that's what everybody's been saying for the past year or so...

They're the same chassis.
fallon
that first picture is horrible, especially with that tacky bit of chrome on the front bumper, that middle picture with the green background like clark said though is cool

the lack of official press from VW about the new Jetta, perhaps?

You've never heard of spy photography have you?

I bet you just sit around waiting to see the official press release before considering there might be a new model coming.
