The old Jetta was probably the most handsome car on the road for under $20,000, with a stately stance and the graceful balance of a ballet dancer.
The new Jetta has been squished and flattened, with a stubby hood reminiscent of the podlike Prius and a side cut that's more modern, but less distinctive.
The old Jetta could be soft on curves, with the nose diving into the pavement on tighter turns.

More impressive was the Jetta's handling dynamics and superb braking, due to an updated four-wheel independent suspension and larger disc brakes than the previous model.

 2005 Volkswagen Jetta - Forbes.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
Volkswagen's sales are down nearly 25% through the first half of 2005.
Some of this decline can be attributed to Volkswagen's model shift; the Jetta accounts for nearly half of all of the German carmaker's U.S. sales, and it's in the midst of a model changeover, which always means slower sales until the new edition gains momentum.
The 2005 model (about to be replaced by an even-more refined car) has as much room inside as this VW, the car is as capable in corners (if not as engaging) and, although it's not fast, neither is the new Jetta (more on that in a moment).

 Short Take Review: 2006 Volkswagen Jetta TDI - Short Take Road Tests - Car and Driver - June 2006
In September 2004, we pitted a Jetta TDI of the previous generation against its gas-sipping competition, and although the Jetta wasn’t the quickest or most fuel efficient of the bunch, it offered a nearly gas-like experience while delivering 42 mpg on our highway loop and 33 mpg around town.
The Jetta’s 177 pound-feet of torque and optional six-speed dual-clutch Direct Shift Gearbox keep the power available and give the impression that there are more than 100 horses underhood.
In park, the only telltale that you’re in a diesel Jetta is the 4500-rpm redline on the tachometer and the glow-plug light — it looks like a fusilli noodle — that briefly illuminates when you start the engine.

 2001 Volkswagen Jetta Wolfsburg Edition Review Update - European Car Magazine
Unfortunately, that shiny-red Jetta didn't stay in our long-term fleet for long--it was severely damaged after Sport Compact Car editor Larry Saavedra hit a center divider with it on the way home from the SEMA Show (see sidebar for the excruciating details).
Fortunately, the people at Volkswagen PR are of a generous and benevolent nature and decided to give us another chance--and another car.

 2005 Volkswagen Jetta - Review & Road Test - Automobile Magazine
With its rounded shape, high beltline, and blobular head- and taillights, the Jetta is a dead ringer for the stodgy Corolla.
Whereas the old Jetta was as soft as a marshmallow, seeming to pitch into early understeer at every turn of the wheel, the new car retains a comfortable ride but has higher limits and less protestation from the front end.
A fix for the Jetta's lethargy should arrive in May, which is when the European GTI's turbocharged, 2.0-liter, direct-injection (FSI) four, making 197 hp and 207 lb-ft of torque, arrives as an option.

Like all Jettas recently launched in calendar year 2005, the new GLI is the product of a complete redesign and is thus bigger than previous Jetta GLI models in nearly every dimension, including occupant space, legroom and trunk volume.
The heart of the 2006 GLI is Volkswagen’s new and highly regarded 2.0 T turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing 200 horsepower at 5,500 to 6,000 revolutions per minute and 207 ft.-lbs.
