Volkswagen is celebrating three decades of its Jetta model with a special GLI Edition 30 model.

The GLI, which is powered by a 2.0-liter TSI engine with 210 hp, is made more exciting with the GLI Edition 30 model thanks to 18-inch “Laguna” wheels, red trim on the front grille, a trunklid-mounted spoiler and Edition 30 badging. The Edition 30 will also be available with navigation, that also adds red trim inside the Bi-Xenon headlights.

For the interior, the German automaker has outfitted the Edition 30 with contrasting color V-Tex leatherette seats with red accents, red contrast stitching on the steering wheel, shifter, brake lever and armrests. In addition, carbon-look trim inlays can be seen along with Edition 30 kickplates and floormats with red stitching.

The Jetta GLI Edition 30 will be available in four colors: Deep Black Metallic, Pure White, Tornado Red and Reflex Silver Metallic.

No pricing for the Jetta GLI Edition 30 was announced.
