      This... plus here in Brisbane, it'd be like turning your car in to a green house.. I didnt get the sunroof either. As for the R Line, I chose that because otherwise I think they look a little pedestrian...Grandma-ish!

        I think the $4k is well placed in the R-Line package. The interior/exterior upgrades plus ACC and 20" inch wheels makes it kinda look like the old BMW X5's.

          Couldn't agree more... I see you went with the diesel and will be driving yours 3 months ahead of me.... so jealous!!

            The dealers will only have the 132TSI to test drive, and you can place an order for a 162TSI Highline. However the dealership won't be able to put it into the NADCON system to order the car from VW and to get it built just yet.

              Same for the 140TDI Highline. You can place an order but my dealer said they cant order it yet.

                Aaagghhhh, got to agree! The R-Line does really complete the Tiguan particularly in white......so I've gone ahead and changed my order, which will actually match yours (with the addition of white Euro plates), for a smidge under $57k. Dealer will search for a matching vehicle and hopefully I can get one of the first batch 😊 Thanks for your advice.

                • Ordered a 162TSI last week for my wife. Replacing a 2009 147 Tiguan. Went with the bold choice Habenero Orange plus the sunroof - otherwise a standard Highline car.

                  Not sure when we will see it- dealer said Jan/Feb but in no rush.

                  That was the easy changeover. It 's what my wife wanted and have delayed swapping over the existing car to get the new model rather than going for a Q3, Evoque or MLA. But what do I replace the Scirocco with in April 17?
                  Scirocco: Indium Grey, DSG, pana roof, Sat/Nav, Dynaudio, VWR springs and APR stage 1. Now sold
                  Arriving April 17 Audi S3 sedan, Panther black, S-tronic, PP2, pano, matrix lights, assistance pack, 40:20:40 seats, mirror pack, light inlays

                  Tiguan: Tiguan 162TSI, DAP and pano in Habanero

                  • The good thing about Habenero Orange is that it will be easy to find in the car park

                    I'll be interested to see one of these in the flesh - colour looks very striking at car shows. I think the Passat Alltrack was featured in this colour.

                    If you didn't want to get the run-out Scirocco (and I can understand not wanting trade on essentially the same car) and you wanted a 2-door sports then I'd be looking at a low km Cayman.

                      • Very true about the car park.

                        saw the colour on an Alltrack. I think it works really well.

                        unfortunately it won't be a Cayman, which was my preferred choice but I need something that can carry a bit of gear these days. At this stage thinking, Jag XES, BMW440 or Audi S5. I also really like the Audi S3 RS3 but might not have the people carrying capacity I need.

                        the good thing is I can start amusing myself with test drives soon(ish). Might add a Macan and F pace to the list.

                            So any first impressions from a test drive yet? I won't get a chance until possibly Friday

                            • Whilst some of us are eagerly awaiting the official launch date, I have a question on likely accessories, specifically the roof bar.
                              Anyone have any idea what the ballpark price is likely to be, and also whether it will be compatible with roof pods by Thule, Yakima, etc?
