    Yeah, I just sent VWA an email pointing out this anomaly. Here's hoping they come to the party, I'm pretty sure there will be cars from the same shipment as mine that will have the discount applied simply because no one has bought them yet!

    Perhaps if they dealer can't pass on the cash discount, they may give some free accessories to maintain the relationship.

    Thanks.
    Not official, but this article from GoAuto may help convince any salesperson.

    Surely there must be something that states you should receive the discount, or rebate even if you took delivery of the car within 30 days of the announcement.

    I was down looking through my local VW dealers car yard and I noticed the price on a new MK6 Golf 118TSI comfortline manual was $32917 drive away which is a saving of $1043 from what they where last week. The metallic paint was $519. So its good to see it has come through.

    It seems strange to me there is no official statement released to the general public. Especially one detailing the reduction for current orders.

    Yet to hear back from my dealer, hopefully they've made the choice to pass it on...

    Thanks.

    Its the import tariff that has come down, but the " dealer margin " in the car still stays the same. Can anyone back that theory up?

    Ive been told by 2 dealers that the margin on 2010 complied GTIs have a lower margin. Maybe this is why I can not get near the 10% off that everyone is seeming to get

    Dont have any evidence but logically why would the dealer margin change because less tax is now paid on it? it shouldnt.
