how reliable are the cars made in Brazil? I am getting an 04 gti 1.8t and i learned that this was assembled in brazil, i've heard that brazilians are more reliable than the ones made in mexico. can somebody enlighten me more on this subject??
thanx!

I just bought a 05 gti 1.8t also made in brazil, running fine for me.
except when the old lady ran into the back of it grrr.
just sitting at a light and pow 10 days old, needed a new bumper cover and bumper shock and some foam. also I think from that a vacuum hose came off for the divertor valve. good luck with yours.
love my little GTI

Im glad you're getting a GTI, they're awesome little cars! I've read their reliabillity is "average" compared to the everyday car. Great choice!
