Interesting...
It sounds like you (and your friend) originally requested reversing camera on your orders, but they stuffed up multiple times?
Don't they have an order tracking system with part numbers that match color-codes and options, or are they doing things manually?

Thanx so much everybody for the great tips etc .
The dealer rang me today, they found one interstate that is now being shipped to VIC. No RVC still, but they indicated that VW is considering bringing out a retro-fit camera kit. Not sure if this is true or small talk, but after pushing them they agreed to put it in writing to fit one FOC (as well as refunding the option cost now) if they do come out. So I might be driving my new car soon afterall . Need it for work and cannot afford to cancel/re-order and wait another 4-5 Months. I did get the VIN early on and don't think they deliberately sold my car as it is costing them more now to have the car shipped interstate etc.

My car was part of the first batch of R36's delivered to Australia back in June last year and was supposed to come with a reversing camera but didn't because of a Volkswagen Australia screw up. I was told that a retrofit was looked at but was scrapped because it wasn't viable. I don't need the camera but it would be pretty cool to have the car as I originally wanted it.
I'll be interested to hear how your story unfolds. If there's a retrofit I know I'd be interested in hearing about it and I dare say a few other people here who had the same thing happen to them would be interested too.

Great to hear Finalcut, now you can take me for a drive.

There was a blue R36 wagon sitting on the floor at Central Coast Volkswagen on Monday. Not sure if its sold.

Could have just taken the white and demanded vast reparations?
I'm with you on that all the way Steve, so I also can do without the camera but wasn't willing to compomise on the colour (although I like white, still think the blue is better). They might be considering retrofit because of all the camera stuffups?
Either way, I will post to this forum if I hear anything!
