Just came back from the test drive.
I test drove a 1999 Mustang V6 /w 5spd manual. Boy, was it hard to drive!!! The first impression it gave me is you have to be tall to handle this car well. I'm 5ft 4", the driving position is just not that comfortable, maybe I'm just not used to it.
There was no used 2000/2001 Jetta in town, so I'm gonna drive back to Seattle to test drive the Jetta, and do some more test drive on the Mustangs, and make a decision tomorrow.
I have a question, do you have to be tall to handle this car???
Well anyway, wish me luck.

My girlfriend is 5'3" and the few times she has driven my car she didn't have any problems once she moved the seat up. Granted she probably moved it up all the way.

look buddy...
whatever you decide... DONT GET A JETTA...
i drove a buddy's 02 1.8L stock 5psd Jetta... It had NO *****... the thing was soooo slow that it made timmy fromm south parks wheel chair seem like a ferrari...
Its pointless to buy one with intentions of makin it quick... it'll cost too much and still wont be THAT quick...
I'd rather rock roller skate than drive another jetta...
