Golf GTI Mark VI Specifications and Prices

[markwid]

knew i missed something out! i have edited my previous post - its Manual and 3 door! - corporate plus - dont think so.
also if ordered in the next few weeks would it fall under MY11.5 instead of MY11?

At $45K drive away should be achievable - but without the LED tails.
For a factory order now, it would be MY11.5 specs. This started in week 45 of 2010.

Expect a long wait though - 4-6 months.

hmm i thought it would be possible (and yep i wasnt including the LED's in my budget haha). i did expect a wait.. didnt have to be that long though

hey all just joined the forums cause i'm looking to get a gti and looking for some advice.

I'm looking to get the following and just wondering how much you guys think i can get it down to, i'm hopefully looking at getting around low 40Ks drive away price if possible. Anybody have any good experiences with dealerships in victoria?

- CW GTI 3 door
- Manual
- Sunroof
- Leather seats
- MDI

Sorry... but low $40k's is dreaming

That configuration in VIC (Melbourne) and standard plates would have a drive away RRP of $48,784.69
So even a 10% discount would be $43,906.22.
15% would be $41,466.99
But I don't believe that there is 15% to be had in a car which is spec'd that lightly and doesn't have the "added discounting benefit" of being in the LCT threshold and the VIC Stampduty thresholds etc.

Thanks Corey.

I knew it was probably too farfetched to get it at that price but i was still hoping maybe someone on this board got a similar spec'd car down to around 41 or 42k.

I guess i'll just shop around and hope i get it at least around 42K if possible. I'll let you guys know how i go cause I'm going to a few dealerships on the weekend.

if you could give some feedback on which dealers you come across that are good and willing to talk (not act like they are the only ones out there) as i will be going to a few over the next couple of w/e's also

i've only been to the dealer at weribee so far and as soon as i started talking about some of the good deals that friends had done or that ive seen on here they went on about how thats unheard of and the like..

i've heard good things about the essendon dealership:
a friend of mine bought from essendon a new 3 door manual GTI with:
- Candy White
- RNS510
- MDI
- Bluetooth
- Towbar
- Detroit 18's
for $39K driveaway! - considering they start at $38,990... he got all extras and on roads for free :|

3 door GTI
Manual
18 detroit wheels
ACC
MDI
Bluetooth
White
2 month wait

$44.5 driveaway. Only about 3k discount

Only the first round. I think I can do better

Hey Ideo how much did you manage to get the car for in the end? If you don't mind me asking.

[siefer]

yeah no worries miilos i'll post up some feedback on the weekend.

wow that deal sounds awesome. i'll definetely go check out essendon dealership now.

[MiiLos]

great
im planning to go there this satruday too, if not - then the following saturday!
ill update once i have a chat to them also!

on another note - does anyone know if the gti's with optional xenons come equipped with the LED strip in the MY11.5 builds? (i saw on the my-gti website that it is an update on the MY11.5 model for AU - the guys at werribee looked a bit dumbfounded when i asked them this question and said they never heard of it).

Sounds too good to be true...I have my doubts.
Maybe your friend is not telling you the whole story. Demo car? Trade-in involved? Financing deal?
