Eagle-eyed Twitter followers may have noticed that Malcolm in the Middle star Frankie Muniz decided to take out a specially-modified Jetta for a spin, and the actor’s buying activities could spur interest in used Volkswagen Jettas in New Jersey.
Muniz bought a pre-owned Jetta that played a supporting role in the initial Fast and the Furious movie, where a side character used it in a drag race against one of the bad guys. He has more than one used car, however, also owning a Porsche made popular by James Dean that appeared in an episode of the MTV show Punk’d.
Buyers who share the actor’s willingness to consider pre-owned vehicles and like the look of a Volkswagen may want to take a look at used Jettas in New Jersey that generally come with a more sedate paint scheme than the Fast and the Furious customized version.
The 2005 model is larger than earlier models so occupants have more space, and product strategist Paul Spaveltz told Cars.com at the car’s launch that a new front fascia was designed to provide an “intense and predatory look.”
