Which one out of the two would u prefer....? both fall in the 25k category!!!

The Jetta comes with much more equipment for 25K - they share the same engine (2.0T) and many components. The Audi includes free scheduled maintenance but I'd take the GLI. They have very similar quality (quality comes from how the car is designed, not the country it's made in!). Either way, they're both nice. The GLI recently won a comparion test in Car and Driver Magazine. Once you add features to the Audi it becomes far more expensive.
