You are right, the post was really silly.
 
Comparing a Jetta to a Civic makes sense--but be sure to compare equivalent trim levels.
 
Comparing a Jetta to an Accord makes little sense--you are comparing a compact to a much larger car, with a full-sized interior. Also you happened to compare a loaded Accord, with leather, to a lesser-trim Jetta. No wonder the Accord cost more. Try comparing a Passat to an Accord, with similar equipment, and see what you get.

That's so funny!
A base Passat has most of the features of a loaded Accord.
Same with a Jetta.
The Accord is a nice car, and has more room in the back seat than the Jetta, but the Jetta has a larger trunk and can handle more weight safely (better handling).
 
The Passat doesn't compete with the Accord ... it competes with the Benz C-class and BMW 3-series.
 
Still, I'd take an Accord over a Camry any day

A base Jetta has a leather interior? I don't think so. A base Jetta has power seats? No. A base Jetta has 17" alloys? No. A base Jetta has a moonroof? Nope. A base Jetta has auto climate control? Nein.
 
Seems a base Jetta is missing many features of a loaded Accord.

How about an engine with 6-cylinder smoothness and more than 270+ horsies?

Yah, well, I figured it was the I-engine comparison, since the Jetta can't be had with anything close to the Accord's V6.

Why not change it yourself? It's not that hard. Just get the filters from the dealer, and get good synthetic from your favorite auto shop. Mobil 1 is rated to work with the Jetta's engines and what goes in the 2.0T with 6spd my daughter drives.
