I was more asking about how did people find out about build dates etc. Is it just a matter of hassling the dealer/getting on good terms with them? Or is it via another method?

Ih sorry... yes, the first post of the How to track the car you've ordered thread! I thought it was this thread the posts people are making

That first post has all the info, and yes, people just ask their sales peeps.

OK, this is my last post in this thread, Promise Corey!
but even though i have had car for a whole 5 days, I still havent gotten over the initial "Wow, I LOVE THIS CAR"

Anyway took car for first mountain drive on Sunday.
In 35 deg heat.
Went perfectly, no probs with the heat.
Also as someone asked before mine was built November and is MY11.5.
Still has new car smell, hmmmmmmm

Guys, hang in there, this is the best car i have ever owned.
I have driven alot of Audi's and also some older ferrari's (dino, 456) and I find this more fun.
I have racked up 800 klm already. lol

IT IS WORTH THE WAIT

Ask your dealer for a NADCON printout on your car. This gives all the current data they have about what has been ordered in Germany. My dealer is excellent as she checks it at least once a week and sends me a copy if anything changes.

So go get a good relationship with your dealer or just continually hassle them.

Original delivery was for April now pushed to November
I called VW h/o and the confirmed nov as delivery and apologized
I either settle for a 5dr without all the options or wait
So I wait!!

Yeah its a hard wait and I didn't even wait half the time alot of people have for their R. I have clocked up over 2000k since I got it late Jan and I still can't wipe the smile off my face. Have surprised a few dunnydore v8's and given a wrx a good run. Love sticking it up the SS ute owners too all within the speed limits of course

The R is a great blend of performance and comfort and its def well worth the wait! Hang in there!

I received mine in the first week of Jan and have only clocked up 800kms! Haven't been driving it much to be honest!

Mate thats sacrilege! I order you to go clock up some decent K's in the R right away hahaha

Lol I have to go for a drive almost every day. Love it. For instance the other night around 11pm I went for a cruise with some classic 80s metal on just because I felt like it at the time lol! First night out where the ambient temp was relatively cool and the R just felt even more alive then!
