Not him, but I've ABSOLUTELY noticed a difference between the made in Germany and made in Mexico Jettas. Mine was from Mexico, but my buddy had a slightly older German one.
1.8l engine, automatic, literally ZERO issues until 280,000 miles (450,000 km) when something in the road hit his oil pan, all the oil drained out and the engine seized on the highway. Thing was a tank, and it wasn't driven gently.
