Decent price for 77TSI DSG?

[cappuccino]

Hey all,

After spending the past few months wondering the site, picking up information where I can, I'm finally ready to make a decision on purchasing a new 77TSI DSG with the Sports Pack. I've been quoted $24,500 from Masaro Volkswagen (Morwell) for a MY13 model in red. Was looking for the comfort pack too, but unsure it's really worth the extra coin.

Anyone else been able to do better around Melbourne (with or without comfort pack)? Cheers

not a dollar more than $23,000 driveaway

you can easily get 77TSI DSG for $21,000

sports pack is 1,500 full price and comfort pack is 500 full price

im in NSW, but should be cheaper in VIC since your drive away costs are lower.

the recall is slamming them hard in terms of sales, so dont be soft, walk out if they dont do better price.
golf sales are down 50%, you might as well pick up a polo GTI or new golf.
when there is blood on the streets great time to buy

recall only affects 2011 built models and before.

2012 onwards have updated mechanronics

p.s. i got 77TSI 2012 during end of calendar year sale 2012 for 21,000 driveaway NSW, they had same offer during end of financial year, and given the recall, i bet you dealers will want to move some stock. all before the recall news

otherwise, wait until Nov for the next round of end of year sales...

dont worry. trust me, these cars are not moving anywhere with the recall fear, they will get desperate.

otherwise, you can even buy in NSW and get delivered in VIC for around $600 transport cost. still save money.

Cheers for all the advice guys, it's all been extremely helpful. This forum has definitely provided myself with a lot of information.

I'm looking at making the purchase this Friday, so I've still got a few days to negotiate. Barloworld have a grey comfort + sports for $25,888 but I'll see what room they have from there.

+ 1 for the comfort pack. Think never touching the rear view mirror again. I've never had glare driving at night. Its one of my favourite features of the car. I also love the climate control. I'm on auto 22 degrees all the time. Never touch it. The only things I dont like on the entire car is the phone adapter and the side bolsters on the seat punch me in the ribs on rough roads. But thats the price you pay for having support on winding roads.

oh and I would like 25mm lower on the rear.

Couldn't agree more. Pretty much sums-up my thoughts, too. I don't find the side-bolsters uncomfortable, but I can see what you mean about how they protrude a little bit. 25mm lower on the rear would make the car look so much better from a side profile.

I can vouch for the comfort pack, too. The auto-dimming rear-view mirror, rain sensing wipers and climate control are all worth the $500 extra. If you're willing to pay a little more, the Sports Pack also makes the car look much better. The fog lamps with static cornering function are also worth their weight in gold. And you'll never want to part with your Boavista's... Haha

Best of luck with your search! Be sure to post some pictures if you bite one!

Just walked out of Barloworld after signing onto a new 2013 Polo 77TSI in Pepper Grey with the Sports and Comfort Packs. $25,800 in the end with additional tinting on the car. Pretty happy with the service I received and the deal Ive gotten. I'm sure I could have waited around for longer but I'm pleased with the purchase.

Picking the new beast up on Wednesday!

Just signed the contract to a Candy White 77tsi manual with sports and comfort packs along with sunroof and custom European plates for 25,786. Plus an additional 12 month warranty on top of the 36 month offer from VW.

Only down side is I wont take the keys until September.

That's an awesome deal! Who did you see for that?

Got it from Camberwell VW

Check the conditions of the extra 1 year warrantee. I got the same thing to and its worth s**t all. For 1 extra year you can claim up to a total of 3000$ in warrantee. A single claim can only be 500$ though which means pretty much anything (throttle body, coilpack/leads, clutches, mechatronics, injectors, cv joints) are excluded because the claim is over 500$. They cover you for very little as well.

Also I hate to name and shame anybody but the camberwell service department I would have to say is the worst in the whole of Victoria (maybe even Australia)

Why you ask? Well on top of them giving me more problems than they fixed when they changed my clutches - and totally screwed up the rest of my DSG, at the 30k service they spilt oil all over the engine and alternator (and it was smoking like a Magna for a week), over filled the oil by an absolute ****load (and were not talking little here were talking 500ml past full!!!)

This meant I had to clean out my whole intake becuase it was flooded with oil from the PCV valve going into the turbo and to top it off in conjunction with the brake flush they decided not to bother using a bucket at all and left all the brake fluid all over the bottom of the engine bay pan which was all conveniently splashed on the underside of my damn car on the drive home...

Need I say more?
