For sure, go for the tune! Even at stage 1, it makes a significant difference. It should have been like that when it left the factory.Certainly v happy with my GTI....just amazed at $$ drop after 6 months.

And with no negotiation really available.Starting at $49,500 driveaway, I see better value in an R. I was keen for a 35 but I would lose big depreciation $$$ if I traded my 6month old GTI for the sake of a 35.
I paid that for my R driveaway. I know which is better value.

you have to take the onroads off the price.. that is the premium for buying a new car.

I didn't pay any on-roads as such. It was the RRP price only....$42K is RRP for 5dr manual + Detroits. Must be my good negotiation skills!

20% depreciation the moment you drive off the lot is normal for any car - even with the best resale value.

I just paid $42,000 with onroads for a my12 candy white manual 5 door.. it arrives in 2 weeks..so that comes with bluetooth etc..
Probably should have got a 35GTI.. but you cant get the price down on that at all..
