That's incorrect. The Rear view camera is available with either the RCD-510 (not sat nav) or RNS-510 (sat nav).
Both of those are options in the regular Golfs, but it just so happens that the RCD-510 is standard in the GTI and (presumably) R.
I actually wasn't sure, but assumed it would work with the new touchscreen (RCD-510) as well which would be standard in both cars. Bluetooth & MDI should also function the same way it would on the RNS510.
Good knowing you can retrofit the RNS later as it would save on LCT in the case of the R.
I'm looking to buy a GTI in a few months time and have been browsing the forums in anticipation / research. I have inquired for some quotes to get an idea of how much its going to cost me.
Quote 1
3 door GTI DSG
Candy White
Corporate Discount
Quoted: Just under $43k driveaway
Quote 2
3 door GTI DSG
Candy White
18" Detriots
MDI + cable
Corporate Discount
Quoted: $42,500 drive away
Obviously the second quote is much better, so at the moment that is my benchmark. Keeping in mind the above quotes are just enquiries, i should be able to haggle the price down a bit further yeah?
Thoughts?
I just ordered my MK6 Gti: 3dr, white, dsg, 18s, dynaudio, acc, jacky trim, rear and front tint drive away $44950 ETA June.
On order : MKVI Gti - White - DSG - 3dr - ACC - Dynaudio - Detroit 18s - Tint.
I'm new to this forums so I hope I've placed this post in the right place.
I went over to a dealership yesterday here in vic and long story short the car I wanted would take a couple of month but they have one car on the floor with the configuration below:
Golf GTI 5 Door 6 speed DSG 5K19V3/10
Metallic / Pearl Effect paint MP/PE
Vienna leather upholstery
Detroit 18“ alloy wheels (4)
SatNav (without dynaudio)
MDI
I figure that the onroad price of that car in VIC is ~$55,900, which gives a ~$4,900 discount or ~8.2% discount.
To be honest, the discount is not the best - many people have received around 10 to 12%. BUT, this car is on the floor and ready to drive away now, not in 6 months time (lol, there is no way you'd get an ordered car in 'a couple of months' at this point in time). You would expect them to be less flexible with floor stock because there's the immediate demand there.
If you're happy with that specification and the colour, and as long as it has not been a 'test driver' etc, then I would be tempted to take it.
Your right about the discount, this was the price just after corp discount before any hard negotiation. I honestly am not interested in the sat nav but its exactly as what you said its hard to turn down the offer of driving away with the car in a couple of days.
What is the best way to identify if the car has not been "test" driven?
Yep, as Christopher said, that'd be what I'd be looking at first. Almost no new cars have 0km, but if it's got only say 30km on it, it's probably fine. As for the Sat Nav - it really is a great system - and offers much more than just 'Sat Nav' - so I'm sure you'll be happy that you have it when all is said and done
I have looked at all the deals done, and finding it really difficult to find someone who wants to deal , and match some of the better pricing received.
I want :-
3 Door GTI DSG
Red or White
RNS510 + Dyna + MDI & Cable
Sunroof
Xenon
ACC + 18" Detroits
Park Assist and RVC
I'm eligible for corporate plus. Best price I have secured is $52,980 drive away. I also used private fleet, which was a total waste of time, as they were more expensive !
Is this as good as I'm going to get .... I had a $52,500 budget !
Cheers

I figure the price for those options on the road in VIC is ~$58,000. So you're getting about a $5020 discount, or around 8.6%.
You're correct that it's not the best discount out there, although it isn't bad.
Which dealers have you been dealing with? Maybe it's time to try another area....
Yes I was certain I could get 10%, but no Vic dealers seem interested. When I come out and say what I want to pay they say good luck and hang up ! I have a promising lead from a forum member who is confident I can get below $52,500 delivered !
Cheers
