The official I have ordered/received my new MKVI thread

[Corey_R]

It's only been two weeks, so yes, that is normal.
You may have a chance to be included in the week ~37 to 40 builds (Sep) which will give you a late Nov to Christmas delivery....

Hey that sounds awesome.. have you considered the bluetooth? Its now going to be factory installed and flush. Functionality for the $550 option is similar to the currently available "premium" bluetooth. Worth it IMO and if your waiting anyway..

I ordered my GTI 21/6/10, so nearly 6 weeks and still have no confirmation of build date from dealer....

I will be placing an order but the waiting period of 4-5 months is way too long. Anyway, this is what I got:
5 door
Red
DSG
RCV
Sunroof
MDI
Premium Blue tooth
Umbrella
GTI jacket
boot liner
Standard 17 inc
mats
fuel
Novated leasing
Sydney
Corporate discount applied
$46,800 inc GST

Is that a good price?

I would question the "Premium Bluetooth". That was a ~$2200 dealer fitted accessory. It has now been replaced by a $550 factory fitted option (9ZB) for the MY11 models, which your car would definitely be if you have to wait for 4 to 5 months.
Mats are a standard feature, so not really sure what you've got listed. So putting int he $550 bluetooth, and removing the jacket, umbrella, boot liner and fuel - and taking out the lease from the equation, that car would be $51,564 with regular black on white plates (for a driver with a good history and of age 40). The discount given is therefore 9.24% plus whatever those freebies are. Which is a good deal.

REXman, B/T not interested.....dont use the mobile much and when i do i just pull over.
Did i mention full euro plates, just waiting for someone to post a picture with the LAKIN plates without the standard plate holder...

[mr fox]

No, not just yet. The mob up the highway from you took 6 weeks to give me a build date, and 4 months to actually deliver my car.
