Yahoo Autos 2020 Volkswagen Golf GTI / Jetta GLI: Car and Driver's 10Best
An emerging body of research suggests that social media is driving people to have an unhealthy obsession with attaining perfection. Call it “compare and despair” for short. It’s based on the sneaking suspicion that we never have it quite as good as someone else, especially as good as that one friend on Instagram who always seems to have the time and money for something better.
But an undeniable perfection has been available for some time and for a surprisingly low sum through your local Volkswagen dealer. Spend as much as you want—or can be talked into. Either way, it has been nearly impossible to beat the all-around brilliance of the VW Golf GTI. Except now by its sibling, the Jetta GLI.
These Vee-Dubs check every box and do everything well. They are affordable; they are efficient; they are spacious, fast, and fun. And they look great with the evening sun shining through your blond locks as you load in your perfectly sleepy toddlers after a family picnic in the paddock. Which is to say, they are social-media co-stars in the making.
