More likely Joe Public gets shafted paying massive mark ups on metallic paints which a 3/5 SFA extra to manufacture than non-metallics. I suggest the sunroof is worth a shed load more than the difference in paint, so paying extra for this paint is silly, and more silly than paying extra for a sunroof.
You appear to have been brainwashed by popular opinion on the internet, but guess what, sometimes you can want it to be right, but it just aint. If others think this they have been sold by a crafty salesperson perhaps?
No I cant but appears the overseas markets also have sunroof with white only option too It maybe just down to a Volkswagen thing. Anyway In aus if you want to order a white R36 you must also have a sunroof. I think the original thread is now getting us off topic. I have to say the forum is feeling a little heated and I just wanted to jump in and clear up the issue about the free sunroof with white.
can anybody shed any light on the extent of the discount offered as at 1/2/10 on the R36?
I can only guess it is related to reduction on import tariff in which case should my yet to be delivered (preordered 2009 and through customs in 2010) r36 now be reduced....? hmmm
It depends have you taken delivery of the vehicle? or when is the delivery of the vehicle to you? do you know what week your car was built????? I suggest having a friendly chat with your dealer thats what we are here for>>> The reduction and some minor inclusions is great news for both customer and dealer..
I take delivery next week...
I just wanted to see where I may stand before speaking to the dealer... I hate seeming like I am angling for something I am not entitled to, but on the other hand if the dealer has obtained a discount from VW then I feel there is some merit to asking for it to be passed on (in some fashion)
build was late 2009
edit not working!
build was late 2009 (is MY2010) and will have 2010 compliance
