Jetta SportWagen R
"Over the weekend, I spent some time getting our daily driver MK5 Jetta back to stock as our lease will be up early next year. I’ts a fun car but we’re looking into what car to replace it with… maybe the MK6 Jetta? I dunno."
The Volkswagen Golf Variant we commonly known here in the states as the Jetta SportWagen is now on its 4th body version. The release of the latest MK6 Jetta SportWagen features a completely redesigned front end.
Quick comparison between the MK5 and the MK6 SportWagen
The updated MK6 front end certainly looks fresh consistent with the front end of of MK6 Golf. But what if you already have the MK5 SportWagen and just wanted to update your look to the MK6 without having to trade in your ride?
Well a guy in Japan had the same thought and what he did was pretty remarkable.
He started with a 2009 MK5 Jetta SportWagen known there as Golf Variant.
He then started personalizing it with your basic mods like wheels suspension, front lip and rear valance. But just like many of us, it didn’t really stop there as he further enhanced it with big brake kits, custom dual exhausts, cold-air intake, fender extensions and a different sets of wheels to name a few.
In the midst of him tricking out his ride, Volkswagen released info on the MK6 Golf R. This model features a real aggressive front bumper.
He got a hold of the brochure and more ideas started rolling. I’ll build my own MK6 Jetta Sportwagen R!!
To start the conversion, he got the necessary MK6 parts like the front fenders, hood, headlights, grill and the ever so important Golf R front bumper.
Surprisingly enough, it actually looked goood.
He even took it up a notch by extending the hood a few inches longer just enough to cover the top portion of the oversized VW badge while giving the car a mean and angry look.
And after all said and done, this is the finished look.
He later replaced the front grill with the badgeless version which looked even better.
There you have it, an MK6 Jetta SportWagen R stylings based on a MK5 Jetta SportWagen.

CFC Styling Station VW Golf VI
The task of turning a VW Golf VI GTI into a driving sound machine and making it look excessively great at the same time is probably not for everyone. The company CFC StylingStation, Neuss has gladly taken up this challenge. The result is worth a few words of admiration.
It takes a good portion of courage as well as confidence to opt for the kind of presentation seen on the newest generation Golf GTI – it is a matte, metallic silver coloured coating (1.500 Euro). The result, however, only reaffirms what experts from CFC knew all along.
With the right clothing, the rest of the car’s sporty yet robust appearance is now on the agenda. An ap-X (749 Euro) screw thread that can be adjusted according to height and hardness has been incorporated into the car especially for this purpose. There is an exhaust system by Eisenmann (1.238 Euro), complete with stainless steel finish and two 100er tail pipes (1.000 Euro) and a down pipe by MR CarDesign. The 265 HP performance and the maximum torque of 390 Nm (799 Euro) can be attributed to XBM Tuning. The GTI now stands on ASA GT2 wheels, which are 8x19 inches in size and soled with rubber tyres in 225/35 R19 (1.999 Euro).
MK-SoundStyle – a company, which also calls Neuss home – is responsible for the Car HiFi Entertainment System. The radio DEX-P99RS (999 Euro) comes from Pioneer. Four output stages from Pioneer (PRS-D2000SPL) power the Pioneer Subwoofer (TS-W8102SPL) in Master/Slave Mode.
The fully active front system was assembled with speakers from Rainbow: High speakers CAL 27 SILK VOF, Midrange Speakers 100 Vanadium, Woofer 165 Vanadium Phase Plug. These are powered by two output stages (iPaul 4 300).
All high end cables are from the AIV’s product line and the spare batteries bear the name Stinger.
