Golf GTI Mark VI Specifications and Prices

[dave_r]

And you reckon $3200 is a good discount?? Mate ur dropping $50K on a hatchback and ur happy with $3200??? **** me people like this make it ***** hard for people like me to get a car at a decent price

I agree with you on the prices people accepting are really not much of a discount but with supply and demand that is how it is. I'm finding it had to justify ~$50k on a 3dr DSG with leather/sunroof but if you want it, what can you do?

But I wouldn't be taking aim at others because they're willing to settle for a lower discount than yourself!

The level of front grip is NOT this issue, its the change in the balance of grip levels from front to rear

Yeah I definitely woudn't be playing with wheel sizes like has been suggested without expecting a negative change in handling. To say it won't effect anything is insane.

Deposit down - Will be delivered in early March... I got the following

3 door white
manual
Chassis Control
Rear camera
18inch wheels
MDI
Leather

Drive away $46,897. Was a little more than I budgeted but given the demand issues was prob the best I can do at this stage.

If anyone in Brisbane is serious about buying a GTI, PM me and i can let you know where to go and where not to bother. I have pretty much been to every dealer in QLD obtaining quotes - so I may be assistance for you.

5DR CANDY WHITE GTI

I could have have ordered and waited till next year (feb or march) for delivery of my vehicle and the dealer would have knocked off another $2000, but nah... I get into my new GTI on MON!!!! WOO HOO!!! Can't wait!

I've been offered an extended further 3 years warranty for $1600, that means total of 6 years of new car warranty. Any one took this option?

Congrats! but that is full retail! you couldn't negotiate anything off?

According to vic pricing, I got $1200 off plus the MDI had to be dealer fitted as it came without.

There weren't any more white manuals left for drive away now. I got 3 statewide brokers calling around for me and I visited a couple of dealers in Melbourne and they've all said I can order one in and get a much better discount, I've had quotes of $42500 drive away but I had to wait till next year most likely march.

My current vehicle is just about due for a $2500 fix up so I guess that balances things out a little.

Anyway I get to drive it on Mon instead of 5-6 mths later. Works for me!

Congrats, euge!! Can definitely understand if you're willing to pay the extra $2000 to get one tomorrow... the expected 3-5 month wait that they've estimated for me will be excruciating.

Post some pics up when you get it! I think you'll be the 2nd one of the forum to (publicly) receive delivery of their mk6 GTI.

[DonkeyKong]

Congratulation with your GTI. I envy you. I thought VW has already fixed up the production line and they claim to guarantee it winthin 3 months from the time of order.

Please understand pricing before making comments like that. The car would be ~$46,883.64 on the roads, so he's obviously got a nice little discount on the car.

You don't want to end up looking like lawsy82 who goes around insulting people for a $3200 discount, then only presents a $3400 discount as defense (although he did end up with a $3900 discount eventually - still nowhere near the best we've seen though).

FYI I got $4,205 off retail price.... The drive away price for my vehicle was $51,102. And I also negotiated an awesome trade in for my MK5 - $30K...

Ive yet to hear of anyone getting this amount off

with these specs
5DR CANDY WHITE GTI 40490
MDI 270
MANUAL 0
MATS 90

$44500

i calculated it to be 40490 +270 + 0 + 90 = 40850
plus 1020ish (SD) 2995 (deliv) 615ish (Rego) = 45480ish. So yes a small discount, and no i was not insulting, as I said, congrats, and euge answered my post stating he got $1200 off. Whats it to you. Its a forum of free speech. All this info will assist me with my purchase so I thank euge for his input and ask coreying to back off. lawsy nor i have said nothing wrong.

Look at the end of the day this thread is used for people to mention what they have been quoted or what they bought for. As I have said before if someone is excited over a $1,000 discount thats good - But that doesnt excite me.

I drove hard to get the car what I got it for, and although some people have told me to buy a Hyundai, and whatever else I continue to post as a guide for people too see what you can get a new golf for, if you try.

Im not a rich person and I just want the best possible price.

So you didn't really get $4205 off the retail price as a trade was involved.

The prices that others have quoted are pure discount with no trade, your figure is useless as a comparison due to the trade in being of unknown value to the dealer. It's entirely possible they're picking up $32,000 for your car wholesale so your real discount is in fact $2205 or even $34,000 for it which drops your discount to a measly $205!

Doesn't look so crash hot now does it and nowhere near the 13-14% you were demanding!

Your discount was far from what you were claiming and you had a go at everyone for being losers for not achieving your claimed 13-14% discount. If people are happy with their deal you don't need to have a go at them for not achieving more and try and ruin the new car experience.

HAHAHA yeah Im sure you will get a reduction - The dealer is licking ur balls.....

Thats not a great deal... Marginal discount there

Why arnt we getting the reduction in import duty passed on in our quotes??? Volkswagon are just an absoulete joke.... droppin $50k on a car you expect atleast 8-9% discount plus the reduction in duty equates to a minimum $6k discount per car IMO
