What do you mean not that good? If that's a 5 door DSG then that's a 12% discount!

I also forgot electric driver seat.

Its good, but i see others on here with like bi-xenon, dynaudio leather, sunroof etc for like 47 or better.
But yes i am happy with the price.

Aaah, well, with eletric drivers seat that brings the discount to 12.8%.

As for others with Bi-Xenon and Dynaudio for only $47k, with the rest of your options that would require a 21.5% discount - which is impossible. So I think you'd be mistaken. Either that or they were 3 door manuals

I ordered my Golf GTI at the end of Feb and was told that I could expect delivery at the end of May. Found out last week that the delivery date has been pushed back to end of July. Is anyone expecting delays as well? I'm pretty unhappy about it since its an additional two month wait it better be worth it!

Personally I don't think that there has been any delay. I just think that 3 months was dreaming. They should have told you end of July from the get go. Sorry that you're disappointed, but as you can see around the forums, NO ONE is getting their cars in 3 months unless it was already on a boat (because they've picked something already built). All custom orders are taking 5 to 6 months right now.

Don't worry, it'll be worth it

Hi there,

I ordered mine on the 8th March, was originally told Mid-September, I rang the dealership 2 weeks later and they told me I am looking at an early July delivery. Not believing them I asked for a schedule (you should as well). They emailed me the schedule including when the car was handed over to production and when it would arrive in Melbourne. At this point in time the car has been handed over to production and awaiting body shell development with the next stage being paint workshop. The schedule also has the dates in which it will be arriving at the departure ports and how long it will be in transit.

Hope this helps...

Actually to clarify - they already had a few GTIs on order since Dec 2009, and were kind enough to modify one of the orders with my specs. As such, if the 5 to 6 month wait was to apply, i should receive the car by the end of May/early June and thus making it possible receive it in 3 months after ordre. If they are now expecting an end of July delivery, it means it'll take 7 months to build =(
