so, my sweet 16 is coming up, and I get to spend up to about $7,000 on a used car for me, so i was wondering if a Volkswagen Jetta is a good car? I really think their so cute, for my age, and not to expensive, also, any links to dealers that seel them for cheap would be great! i live in the seattle WA area. lastly, how many miles should i look at when i buy a used car? like whats too many?
 
Anytime I am in question for anything, I do a google search for consumer/owner reviews. This way I feel more at ease since the reviews are from people like me and you. I don't go to the 'brand site', say for example Volkswagen. Of course the information there is most likely to be bias. Good luck! BTW, check carmax or for sale by owner.
 
I have a Jetta TDI (diesel) and really like it. I drive a lot of miles though so I wanted something that would get great fuel mileage. I get about 43 driving to college, it is about 30 miles one way though. I think it is a good car but I haven't had it that long. I found mine at autotrader.com, the usually have a good selection. Carmax.com is also good. One concern is driving them in the snow. I don't know if you get a lot of snow or not but I don't think they are great in the snow, not horrible but you could probably do better there. But overall I like mine. Hope this helps.
