Volkswagen is celebrating the 40th birthday of its enthusiast-focused compact sedan, the Jetta GLI, with a run of special editions. The 2024 model year marks 40 years since the GLI's inception in 1984, and the anniversary cars will be limited to a fitting production run of 1984 examples for the North American market.
The front end of the special edition features the classic GLI red along with a blacked-out grille and mirrors.
The 40th Anniversary Edition is limited to three paint options: Pure Gray, Pure White, and Rising Blue.
Each paint option comes with black-painted 10-spoke 18-inch wheels as well as black mirror caps, door handles, grille, and spoiler.
The inside of the special edition is littered with 40th anniversary badging.
The steering-wheel badge reads 40 in lieu of the standard GLI logo.
The door sills each declare the significance of the model with GLI 40 badging.
The molecular cloth seats also feature tags that ensure people will remember the GLI's birthday.
Even the cupholders join the fun, with GLI written in one and 1984 written in the other.
Our favorite special detail comes in the seats, which VW says are unique to each of the 1984 models being produced.
The anniversary car starts at $29,235, with VW expecting it to arrive at dealerships later this summer.
