No confirmation on car pricing though, he has reiterated that the R will only be a 5 door.

It looks as though coreying was spot on!

He did leave something that has left me wanting to know more though...
coreying was spot on.
"I cannot see why Volkswagen would deny that opportunity, unless…

…the Scirocco is on the radar as an officially imported vehicle!"

Now the Scirocco is something I would LOVE to come to Australia and would buy without a 2nd thought.

Do you guys think the best way to get the point across about the 3-door situation is to just let the dealer that you intend to buy through know that if there is no 3-door, then there is no sale?

Yes, that's the only way.

If enough people hold this line, they'll bring the 3 door.

And that's why you get singled out , because I already posted that exact list at 11:53pm last night in this very thread.

No matter though, there has been a few pages since then so having it repeated is cool

Some people don't read or listen to anything..

Mate you could buy a new M3 in the states for what we will pay for a Golf R.

It's ridiculous over here.

(Yes I know its because of the significantly larger market in the US and our taxes)

And what taxes would that be?
Balance what you want... free(ish) health care, affordabile, or cheap cars

[G-rig]

Aren't wages & incomes in the US crap??

And I have said in that same
post "coreying is spot on" after all this is all 2nd information, VWA have said nothing, so it good to hear the same thing fro
multiple sources!

Just need the drive away price on the car now.

Just_quietly has ordered a 3dr :p

I'll bite.... I gather he knows something we don't?

I meant our import / sales taxes.

And yes, you make a good point. Our healthcare is one example of a significant benefit we enjoy in Australia.

Sounds like you need to send an email to AVICCO...
