Meet Volkswagen’s amazing U.S. enthusiast fleet
2016 Volkswagen Jetta GLI
The Jetta GLI has been a staple of the Volkswagen tuning scene for decades. An earlier model famously appeared in The Fast and the Furious movie, cementing the Jetta in custom culture.
For 2016, Volkswagen subtly modified the Jetta GLI with H&R Street Performance coilover suspension. This dropped the GLI closer to the floor, and ensured the 18-inch Neuspeed RSe52 wheels fitted perfectly.
To demonstrate that the Jetta GLI could easily swap from the street to the race track, a jack, wrenches, and spare wheels could be found in the trunk.
