Golf GTI Mark VI Specifications and Prices

[markwid]

also the rrp for my11.5 bixenons are slightly dearer as they now have led drls. not a problem if you ordered them with the old price

Yep, when I ordered in Nov, the option for Xenon w/LED was still the old (lower) price.

So what's the new price for the Xenon w/LED DRL?

[MiiLos]

not 100% sure but i think i read somewhere that its $100 extra now.
dealers ive been to still dont have this update.

[Big Yellow]

$2200 new
$2000 old

i think?

[MiiLos]

$200 for a set of LED's.. considering the change actually cost VW about $10-$20 on each car if that lol.

how do they justify these costs (not just VW but manufacturers in general).

When I ordered my car last week, it was $2,100 for the new Bi-Xenon's with DRL on the price list...

... however, the dealer charged $2,000 (old price) on the paperwork, which was automatically generated by the computer system.

They are probably not too worried about the price rises, as it doesn't count for much when you start negotiating a driveaway price.

I ordered mine last week also and they were $2000

Lastly, the GTI interior looks beautiful in the standard trim. The leather sort of blacks out the details a bit much so it looks like every other car with leather.. (no offense leatheree's).

I would definitely just get a 5dr DSG, RVC, XENONS, 18s, ACC, BLUETOOTH and DYNAUDIO.. In that order!

Thanks, thats helped clear up my leather conundrum. If available I'll grab most of the options you list, but I don't know if acc or dynauido will make the cut to get it under 50k. I hope my bargaining skills are in order, any tips for getting a sound price on the outset?

Thanks too AdamD for your reply. Between yourself and rex I'm sold on the rvc and bt.

Quick question, my10/my11 - Are these the build year of the car? And am I going to notice a drastic price difference?

Is the 2011 model going to come with a wait? When I spoke to a Sydney dealer he said he had 30 GTIs in stock, half in cloth. Are these likely to be 2010 built?

Thanks for your help

Hey Bertie,

The price should be negotiated for a MY11.

Think of the MYXX numbers as identifiers that refer to what the car has on it in terms of options.. More so than a build date.

Example: MY11 GTI models have a xenon option. Costs $2000 and it gets you xenon lights with a washer system. These are built after July 2010.

Further,
MY11.5 cars from the GTI range that are optioned with Xenons will have DRL strip in the headlight cluster. This is specific to the model MY11.5. MY11.5s are made post Oct 2010 (thereabouts someone else will no exact month).

MY12s will be built in 2011.

So the MYXX refers to the model and specification.. The build date refers to when that particular car was actually built.

So my car I think is SEPT/Oct build MY11 model.

If you got a 2010 MY10 you couldn't get the Bluetooth fitted from factory.

Anyways,

You should try and get the list for close/under by a smudge than $50k. (for a MY11 brand new)

And yes it depends on who will look after you best.

Just purchased...

MY11.5 TR 5DR GTI DSG
Sunroof
18" Detroits
MDI
Premium B/T
RVC
Tinted windows

$47k drive away - no Corporate Plus discount, just a straight out retail negotiation and purchase. I think its a good deal for a car in stock which I can have at the end of the week. According to the calculator thats a saving of 12.21% over retail. Very happy and appreciate the valuable intelligence gleaned from this site and the other members.

I rang a few dealers in Sydney and surrounds yesterday - most simply didn't get back to me, a couple quoted me straight full retail and weren't prepared to do any negotiation on the phone, some wanted me to come into their showrooms before they would even discuss what was in stock and only three actually engaged in price discussions with me - I got the car from the one who called me back and was prepared to talk turkey over the phone.

Thanks.

Which dealer ended up doing the deal?
