We just got my sister a fairly loaded 2012 Jetta SE with V tex (hey, better than cloth) and bluetooth and SAT radio for 299 a month (tax, tag, everything) and NO money down.
It’s a great car that has a german feel. It even has heated seats...

I would get the 330i. a bit more power and looks. These cars are good cars and reliable if you don't drive them like your a nascar driver everyday. Best bet would be to look for one that has decent mileage under 70 and isn't beat up. and as long as he maintains the vehicle (do oil changes on time, service brakes, check-ups, etc) on a proper basis it'll be fine. Hopefully this gave you some insight for your brother. Good luck.

If that is the brother's budget range, then an appropriate Honda or Toyota might be a better first car value. Tom |

Well you're right depending on what state your in. In florida thats what those cars are worth retail. 01-04 with 70-80k are priced between 7-10k. wholesalers buy them for like 4-6k and if it needs to be fixed, cleaned, etc they do it and bump the price up an extra 5k.

Agreed. It's about learning to prioritize at that age.......have him get a cheaper car that will get him from point A to B reliably and safely and use whatever money he saves to help pay for college and minimize any college induced debt. |
