up! Pricing Revealed !!!

[Tobes_WIR35]

As at Tuesday just gone there were no Up!'s in the country with either comfort packs or the sunroof. We even called VWA head office to try and find one. So we settled for a standard one with the maps and more. After having plenty of time now to use the maps and more, you'd be crazy not to get it. For $500 it's incredibly good value for the functionality it provides

anyone on this forum have an up with the comfort style i can have a look at . or take pics for me?
hows the feel of the leather.

It's not leather... it's artifical.

If you mean with the key, then yes it has it standard.

A bit disappointing with the price tag... First of all there is only manual...

And then the price (according to VW website and my local post code):

up! 5 door 5 Speed Manual - $17,751.75*
Polo Trendline 5 Door 5 Speed Manual - $19,834.32*

For 2 grand more wouldn't you rather get Polo? I know - I would...

If the price was 14,000 with all fees and charged then it's different...

That is a little bit disappointing. I will definitely go for a Polo given the choice. As people have been pointing out, there is not much room for discounts on the Up, does anyone know if there's more room to wiggle with the base Polo? The price diffrence may even be smaller than $2k.

I actually been checking price of polo too and it does end up being pretty close.
May get the polo instead. Not much difference with my12 and my12.5. So I'm sure you can buy a polo at very close to up prices.

Pricing has been slashed to $12,990 and $13,990 driveaway for the 3 and 5 door.

Should draw more people into the showroom but there's still a few things that count against it

That's pretty good, but according to the website it is a runout sale, not a real price reduction. Only applies to cars manufactured on or before August 2012 and must be delivered by March 2013.

Still, if I needed a cheap runaround second car I would consider one. $14k driveaway is not bad for a 5 door city car with 3 years of capped servicing.

At that price, wouldn't you rather buy a polo?

Thanks.Than hopefully they wont price at that to compete against the polo.Besides owning a year old polo is quite a handful plague with gremlins.So far touch wood.Though i must admit i do enjoy the tremedous power of the car for that price too. cheers tay
