If we're debating GLX vs. GLI, this is likely to be a MK4 Jetta in which
case most of the above is correct. However the 16V part is not. The Mk4
GLI was initially a VR6 and was pretty much just a "sport" version of the
GLX. However later in the Mk4 GLI's model run it was changed to the 20V
1.8T engine.

Most years, GLX means VR6. Otherwise, GLX is the top of the line and
may have all the GLI trimmings plus a few extra of its own. GLI is
the Jetta version of the GTI Golf (Rabbit), which usually (but
definitely not always) means a 16V motor and sport suspension, plus
body trimmings and interior extras.

Okay so i'm looking into the Jettas and I see that there are two
differnet models im interested in. I know the GLX is the luxury model
with all the bells and whistles, and I know the GLI is the sport
model. But mechanically, what is the difference?
