The official I have ordered/received my new MKVI thread

[runningmanz]

Well its good to see something positive has arisen from the issue I faced. I didn't mean to open a can of worms, but it looks like since my post everyone seems to be checking their cars which is great. I'm really happy now with the outcome. After looking through a few photos I now love the Carbon Grey, and I now get a free sunroof. I am a huge believer in things happen for a reason. Biggest issue for me is the extra month wait. Oh well, I've waited this long, what's an extra month.

Yep good colour choice The grey variants look awesome on the Golf's hence the reason I ordered United Grey for my R! A sunroof was a must have for me after test driving a GTI with one. So much nicer with that extra ambience the natural light gives into the cabin through the roof.

Hey that is a good outcome.. as for not getting black.. I wouldnt worry about it too much.

The Black is available on all GOLFs, even the base 77TSI. The CSG colour is a GTI only colour. So no-one that knows what they are talking about will ever confuse your car with a base model!

Unless you were chasing a sleeper look, nothing lost here I reckon.

At least you got an insanely fantastic price!
One of my mate was at South Yarra VW a couple of months ago and took a pic of a CW R with specs highly similar to yours!
Recaros, RNS510, black 19"....etc

Definitely man,

Thats the only saving grace here, I know I got an amazing price so the trade off is the wait!!

PS yeah that CW R was in there when I bought mine. It's the whole reason why I specced my car the way I did, I was inspired by that one in the showroom! Brett Tells me it has sold now, such a hot looking car. Actually, I took pics of it as well, It's the one that you see in my avatar

Hi guys,
After almost 8 months of "should I or should't I" I got some balls and decided to get a new GTI.
Decided on
Black, Dsg, 18" Detroit, leather, sunroof.

Hearing the long waits I took a stab at finding out if any Sydney metro dealers had any on the floor.
Was in luck! A car had just arrived in the dealers holding yard, but had no home to go to after the original orderer couldn't get finance sorted.

But this car had park assist too. Thinking it was Christmas and I did t want to wait till June, I snapped her up. Pick her up on the first week of January! Can't wait!

Well done, now you will just kick yourself you put it off for 8 months .. sometimes you have to go with the impulse

Congratulations Spydar!

Reckon it was meant to be with such great timing.
Not many sleeps to go for you
Hope you enjoy the ride as much as I still do with mine.
Look forward to hearing what you think and a great late Chrissy present, gotta love that!

I just wanted to point out that my Golf R landed in Brissy on the 21st of December and I'm off to pick it up 1st week of Jan!

I didn't hear of anyone else on here that had their pride and joy on the Topeka?
