With teen drivers and first-time buyers in mind, KBB created the list based on affordability and the all-important "cool factor".
Deemed as fun to drive and fun to own, the 2011 VW Jetta is number eight on this year's list. Kelly Blue Book gives a nod to the VW Jetta's excellent engineering, new roomier backseat, and high performance control and handling. And the coolest part? German engineering at an affordable price.

Drivers will also be pleasantly surprised by the innovative technologies integrated into the car including hands-free Bluetooth technology and AUX inputs for iPod and media players, and a user friendly touchscreen navigation system. All included for around a cool $20,000.
