Picked up my 77TSI Pepper Grey Polo today. I'm in love! I'm coming from a 1994 Daihatsu Charade and the Polo is just class. So many little features and no doubt more I will find in time. Very happy one day in!
BTW the car was built early March but the aircon display is the black text on blue background so not the MY11.5 black on white. No problems for me though. Qualität!

Nice colour choice
Yes the greatest little feature I discovered last week was coming down a mountain, foot gently braking, the DSG seamlessly goes from D7 to D3 to assist in the braking - v.nice

today i signed a deal for my first polo tsi (my first vw actually)... I am going to pick up the car in about 2 weeks and I made a few decisions but would like to know from your point of views?
1) is it worth to get 3 years extended warranty for around $850-$900? (i am not really going to as I got an extra free year anyways if i service in the dealership)
2) i got the naked polo tsi DSG, i.e. no sports/comfort/audio pack. reasons are: I am fine with the 15in wheel, and I do not need auto dimm reverse mirror. (I got sunglasses), and I listen to the FM/AM the most in the car (i.e. ABC news/Fox FM)
3) I picked blue colour... the dealer dont have blue in stock, all they have are white, silver, black... but I had all those cars previously so i want to try something new... but after viewing the threads on this forum and cant find people with blue polo...i am wondering whether I should stick with the blue or...?
4) I got free bonnet protector + boot net + mat ... I am wondering if anyone here got/asked any free accessories and why?
Welcome bluepolotsi and congrats on your purchase. Like you, my Polo will be my first VW as well. With regards to your queries.
1) This is something I'm thinking of getting and don't have an answer for you. I'd be interested to hear what others think of it too.
2) I got the sportspack because I personally preferred the look of it. With the audio pack, I mainly listen to the radio as well and couldn't justify the cost of the audio pack and the comfort pack didn't appeal to me. As for the sunglasses, well....the auto dimming feature comes in handy at nighttime, so I wouldn't go around wearing sunnies at night tiime!
3) Don't worry about what colour other people have. If you like the blue, stick with it.
4) The driveaway price of the stock standard Polo I bought was about $23k. I ordered sunroof, sportspack, front tints, mats ($4k rrp) so the price of the car would have been $27k. I got it all for $25k. You could look at it and say everything was reduced or that I got the sunroof and mats for free.
Enjoy your Polo when you get it....2 weeks is great. I have to wait until August and I know some others here have to wait until the new year.

In regards to car warranties offered by dealerships, there are always loopholes that they can get out of so if you are talking about the VW genuine factory extended warranty, then I'd say go for it but you should have tried to negotiate that into the deal instead of free plastic add-ons and a net!
I will double check with the finiancial department whehter it is the vw geniune warranty..
btw, i got the above for just below $25k...was I getting a rip off?
Well it looks like I'm about to join the Polo Club
Just signed today for a Savanna Yellow 77TSI, Manual, Sports Pack, Panoramic Sunroof, Bluetooth (and rubber mats front rear and boot ).
Delivery was pegged for July, but is still to be confirmed in the coming days...
And now I start dancing from one foot to another while waiting...
Congratulations on your purchase. I wonder if yours will be the only Savanna Yellow with a sunroof in Australia.
The wait may seem like ages but it'll be here before you know it

I didn't notice a PM, but can answer your question anyway... I don't know anything about VCDS in relation to the Polo yet but it's something I plan on finding out about and will update the details as I go into the VCDS section.
If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.
