Must get together for a drive sometime as I'm in vic too.

Just got feedback from my Dealer - no change in status on mine however he did mention that in his experience they typically add in all the production based dates when the car comes off the line. He's going to send me another update at the end of the week. He's a really nice guy and does his job well.

My GTI hits my dealer in Newcastle today, gets the $1000 car wash over the next two days and then will be dropped off for transport back down to Melbourne on Friday.
I should get it next Thurs/Friday.

Looking forward to getting together for a cruise with fellow Mexicans soon!

Sorry to bring bad news, but I was speaking to a collegue whos' son is working over in Germany with VW. Apparently they shut down a plant (or section of a plant) due to a shortage of engine parts, so some delays may be stretched even further, unless we've already felt them........

Well, I guess all will be revealed in the next couple of weeks. Fingers crossed

Ordered my Polo GTI with metalic paint (reflex silver) as the only option on Jan 29th. Was told it would be a Nov/Dec delivery. Is this still true?

Has anyone been on the VW site in New Zealand? Just noticed that one of the options available for the Polo GTI are the Detroit 17" wheels. On top of that, they can buy a Scirroco R.

Thinking of our NZ brothers over there at this time...all the best guys.
