Golf GTI Mark VI Specifications and Prices

[Corey_R]

Sounds like a good deal, you're getting about $4700 discount based on the assumption that 'Rear Parking Sensors' are valued at $700 like they used to be on the MK5. Which brings me to a question. Are the Rear Parking Sensors dealer fit? Because the GTI doesn't have that as a factory option. You either have Park Assist (with park sensors front and rear) for $1400 or Rear View Camera for $500.

Not sure about what the parking sensors actually meant, I asked for them and he added them so no 100% sure if its just the sensors or the whole hog??

But the car is in the system and as is, no dealer fitting required, so must be factory (i think)...

O and the $44.5k price was with metallic paint, forgot, so it was just under $44 drive away price in the red.

O and I think the wife has been sufficiently worn down so that the purchase is my decision..... hopefully!!!!!

[Corey_R]

Well, if you have the full park assist, and your drive away price is only $44k, then you've got like a $5k discount there! That's awesome. Snap it up man!

Went to Chatswood Classic Cars today to test drive and ask about GTI. Got to say love the car! Didn't really talk price, just went to ask on delivery times and he said approx May for the specs i want which are:

Candy White
5 Door
Xenons
18" Wheels
MDI

Or i could get a fully stock which i can get in 2-3 weeks. So atm still deciding what to do!

[dave_r]

and any car above that attracts 5% stamp duty on the entire amount!. Keep in mind that stamp duty is calculated on the cost of the car + options + GST + LCT.

Yeh they sting us good!! How many times can they double dip? The stamp duty/LCT will really add too the cost of a Golf R when they get here!
Using your updated formula gives a good enough idea of pricing with the options I'm after. Will see how it compares to the dealers! Just sussing out if I'm eligible for corporate discount first.

But looking at an RRP of just over $52k for Candy White 3dr, DSG, Leather, Sunroof and MDI. If I find a dealer willing to talk a figure under ~$47k for delivery next year then I'm in! Like the sound of ACC but doubt I'd notice it and Xenon starts to push the price up a bit, need to save the pennies for some nice aftermarket wheels

Yes. I was also told the Xenons will be started to install for Australia market in January.

So I did it, bit the bullet and took the leap, wife is angry because she wanted me to wait but I caught the bug and it burrowed in deep.

So just purchased a GTI with:
5 doors
DSG
Red
MDI
Parking sensors (just the sensors)

All up price of just under $44k on road. Happy with that according to the salesman that's around a $5200 discount which is about right on the spreadsheet.

Now to take delivery!! And wait for the wife to calm down...

[Corey_R]

Hehehe! Congrats Nath! Hopefully the wife will forget about being angry when she gets to drive the car!

I'm told by dealer that rear parking sensors are no longer available as a separate factory option and, indeed, for $200 less the rear view camera would probably be a better, certainly niftier, option.

And mirror down reverse function can only be enabled when Park Assist is specified, not merely dealer-fitted sensors. Why, I do not know.

[Nath]

You're right, the rear sensors are a dealer fit, ~$600...

Wanted the car now and the only way to secure a rear camera is to order it for delivery in Jan at the earliest the dealer said, so not too fussed really..

Pickup Thursday or Friday by the look of it, so long to wait...

But heading off on the GTG drive on Saturday to get famil with the car, should be a good day, can't wait......

That's really good price.

[Corey_R]

If that's the "premium bluetooth" from VW, then that's an awesome price! ~$6000 in discount is what I calculate, which is insane! I would assume you've used the corporate discount on that?

[mattyf83]

I have been quoted 49315 for

5dr DSG Carbon Steel with, Leather, MDI, Sunroof, Metallic Paint.

Seems like a decent price?
