Golf GTI Mark VI Specifications and Prices

^ What he said. IMHO when people come to sell their Mk6s in a few years time cars without RVC will be as rare as cars sold without A/C these days. The camera and screen technology is getting to that price point where most cars will come with it in the not too distant future.

It's cheap as chips really. I can imagine myself reverse parking all the time, just to use the rear camera. Hahahaha

And if you don't get it you definately won't be able to do this.

Here is a link to the official Volkswagen GTI page on their site
A direct link to the GTI Brochure PDF current as of Jan 2010
A direct link to the Golf Specifications PDF (including the GTI) current as of June 2010

Finally, I've created a Pricing Calculator Spreadsheet which is available here:
Golf GTI Price Calculator Spreadsheet (Updated on Aug 16 to account for rego changes in NSW on Aug
Please see this post for details on the calculator spreadsheet.

Given the ever-decreasing cost of technology and that the GTI has a more expensive RCD510 head unit as standard, by rights the RNS510 should not still be a $2,500 option on the Mark VI GTI (or R for that matter).

Would someone mind telling VGA (and mention the desirability of a tilt-adjustable driver's seat while their at it)?

Thanks in hopeful anticipation . . .

Dealers are generally not specifying cameras when ordering floor plan. One told me today that they only usually specify a camera when lots of other more costly options are specified, which makes no sense at all seeing the camera adds just $500 to a GTI or R but adds about $2,300 (or something like that) to the cost of a lesser Golf once mandatory RCD510 and Dynaudio have been added.

So it really should be a no-brainer for the person ordering dealer floor plan. But evidently hardly any GTIs coming into the country have cameras fitted. Big "derr" from me for that oversight.

If Mazda can differentiate by making SatNav standard on some of its Mazda3s perhaps VW would start including the camera on GTIs and Rs . . . the exchange rate has certainly moved in importers' favour in recent months to allow such a move.

sorry - posted this in the general MkVI prices thread...

with corporate discount $50,608.

Checked with work this morning - they wont give me the letter for the corporate discount which takes the price back up to about $55k which is an absolute rip.

They were completely uninterested in my trade (2009 VE Calais V V8 with 18,000km and loaded with 19s, sunroof, mem seats yak yak blah blah) suggesting strongly I sell it privately.

He did say I could leave a deposit of $500 and the final purchase would be subject to sale of my vehicle privately and that if it wasnt sold and I didnt want to go ahead with the sale I would get my deposit back.

Is 47k-48k drive away without corporate discount attainable or am I dreaming?

thanks.

$47k would require ~12.8% discount (~$6,892.50) and $48k would require ~10.9% discount (~$5892.50)
Whilst we've definitely seen those % discounts before, your car is relatively low priced anyway and doesn't go into the LCT area, so most of the discount is coming directly from the dealer and not via reduction in taxes. e.g. ~$5,967.73 ex-GST (12.8%) and ~5,097.73 ex-GST (10.9%) respectively.

If you were comparing this to a car which was $72k RRP drive away, and the dealer offered the same $ figure discounts, you'd still end up with a 12.44% and 10.63% discount respectively, yet the dealers figures would be 9.9% and 8.5% respectively.

Hope you get what I'm saying

When we purchased our Tiguan, we had the same issue with not being able to get corporate discount after speaking with the employer and we spoke to the dealer principal and he told us that the corporate discount is worth $900 to him. ( ie, they get $900 from VWA). what he implied was that if you just walk in with good negotiation skills, you should be able to drive the car away at very close to corporate discount price.
