Jetta Facelift – Side by Side Comparison

You can click on any of the photos on this page for a larger version…


Since the Jetta 6 facelift is a bit subtle, we decided to put some side by side comparison shots together to make it a little easier to spot the differences.


FRONT


A new front grill with a new front bumper are the two main areas of change. The LED headlamps were borrowed from the GLI and Hybrid Jetta models and Instead of the smiley looking front bumper on the old car, the ends now turn down and are slightly larger and more aggressive which makes the front end look a bit wider now. Also the headlamps are actually the same shape, however the front bumper doesn’t angle up to meet the grill under the front corner of the headlamp and it appears more squared off.

SIDE


The side view looks a little more squared off at the front and rear with slightly sharper creases. The wider lower front bumper looks more aggressive compared to the old car. The rear trunk lid has a subtle lip now and the rear bumper reflectors now curve up instead of down.

REAR


The new rear of the facelifted Jetta 6 looks a LOT like the rear of the Audi A4. The trunk lid is all new with a subtle lip edge at the top and a much larger cutout of the license plate area between the tail lights. The rear bumper is slightly more creased and the reflector areas now curve up instead of down. The tail lamps have some very minor internal reflector changes (larger rear white reverse light sections for example) and LED’s are available on more trim levels.

Review: Saying Goodbye to the CC V6

For all its size and its global reach, Volkswagen is still, in many ways, a deeply human company. There was, for instance, the Bugatti Veyron an ego project if ever there was one. Then the purchase of Ducati, a move most called folly. And then there was the Phaeton, the Volkswagen that most folks can’t afford. Not only were these moves all strange, I’m sure that they made VW’s accountants furious. None of them made good business sense, but they were all deeply interesting and they all are evidence of the heart that beats at the center of VW. Among these follies is the CC, a car that everyone agrees is rakishly handsome, but that no one really wanted to buy. The car couldn’t last, but the world is brighter for its having been in it. With the approach debut of the Arteon, it seems like a good time to look back on its sadly departing predecessor. The version I drove, because I live in Canada, is a V6 Wolfsburg Edition, which apparently isn’t available in the States. Nor is the V6, not as

Waterfest Moves to Atco Dragway

Waterfest 24 will be held at Atco Dragway, in Atco, New Jersey. The summer event will take place at its new venue on July 21 and 22. Long held in Englishtown, New Jersey, the festival has been such a large part of the VW scene that the latest iteration of the Golf even comes with optional “Englishtown” wheels . The new venue, however, is an NHRA drag track a scant 52 miles southwest of Englishtown. The ¼ mile drag track opened in 1960, which makes it the oldest drag strip in New Jersey. The announcement came today on a social media post that announced the new location. Waterfest is North America’s largest VW/Audi show. As many 20,000 people show up for the annual show, making the second largest show in the world—with Worthersee being number one. 2018 will be Waterfest’s 24 th year in existence.
