what do ya'll think about it

 

great......another POll.

 

option 3 - like them both

option 4 - hate them both

I like both

 

So many changes have been made to the 2005 Type S that it drives like a different car.

If you are thinking about it, go drive it. I think you'll like it.

I may do this the next time I go to the dealer.

 

right now im still fighting the good fight and you know what, im still stuck between the new 2005 Jetta GLi and the RSX type-S. Let me tell you, both cars are really nice, and both cars come with some great options, they both are lookers, but im just still stuck between the 2. I know i cant get the RSX type-S for as low as 21,700 and that is there, right now i am working on the pricing for a Jetta GLi. So depending on the price now i might make my decision, i will be financing so its gonna be interesting.

 

so has anyone test-driven the new type-s? im looking to sell my RS for this car and i just need some feedback if this is really worth it. ?

 

you'll regret getting a jetta....sooo many quality issues, it's not funny. plus, the handling just isn't the same.

 

10 hp? 1 lb-ft of tourqe? blander lights? hopefuly the suspension is a big upgrade, otherwise it seems like the just made the rsx look more like a camry.

 

its alright, i need to push its limits.

 

I think it looks smoother. The lights look clean cut and sleek. I wouldn't mind one old or new.

i sat and considered the thousands of people who told me this same thing and i eventually went with a MAzda 6, although in the past the 6 series cars have had quality control issues, that was over motors that were supplied by Ford in the mid nineties and as far as can tell, this car so far has less issues than our newest generation of Honda Accords, so thats the deal, so far so good. The VW's just were too problematic, repeat offenders with no remedy in sight, they had window malfunctions, they have coil pack problems, not to mention customer service issues, re-occuring issues are what kills their name, i like their cars and they are obviously over-engineered, and through research ive come to the conclusion that all of the parts sourced locally in the place of manufacture are the majority of parts that suffer from quality control issues, believe it or not, but thats the truth.

You forgot about the gearing...

 

Glad I got an '04.

 

The 2005 is a good car for performance. Styling's kinda weird but the new rims as well as the guage cluster look pretty nice.
