2010 GTI 2-door, Candy White. 2.0 TSI w/ 6-speed manual gear box, 18-inch "detroit" wheels w/ summer performance tires, and GTI Protection Package (fancy floor mats & shit..)

Picking it up monday. Pics to come.

Tom,
Sorry I didn't even call you... I got a little carried away, but feel like I got a good deal... considering the cash they offered me for my shitty Plymouth Neon was WAY more than I anticipated, and well above what i was getting offered at other places. Got a great interest rate, and a good out the door price, pretty much in line with the averages from Edmunds. Looks like before Tax, Title & License, I was either right at, or just above invoice... Not bad on a brand new car i think ;D It's affordable for me, and I love it, that's what matters.

The folks at the dealership are awesome too, strictly a VW shop and they've been in biz since 79...

Can't wait to pick it up! PICS TO COME!

Summer performance tires are a great move and you can't go wrong with white.  Congrats!

Congrats on the purchase!!  I have loved my GTI (2000 with VR6) and it has been a great car!!  I was seriously looking at replacing it with one of the new ones, but have decided that I need something that can tow...

Might didn't come with the NAV, but does have the touchscreen integrated Bluetooth, I-Pod connector in center console, and a cool media card input slot.

However, effing I-Pod cable already has a short in it. I chalked up this to a design flaw. The cable it too long for the spot to place your Ipod, so you had to "coil it so it would fit in the assembly. Called up the dealer, no worries, new one is already in

and guess what?


It is shorter this time..........



Congrats on your purchase  [thumbsup]

I am super pumped. Today is taking forever, can't wait to pick that thing up.
No navigation or touch screen, has the standard stereo in it which i prefer. I'm not a big fan of touch screens in cars, just personal preference. DOES have the integrated bluetooth and ipod connection though.

Turns out its a 2011 too, salesman was mistaken... so awesome for me! hah.

It's pretty much a bare bones deal, not much in the way of options aside from the wheels and GTI protection kit. But it has everything i WANT, and nothing more, which is why i was able to afford it.

He had 4-door that was TRICKED out... but it was like 30k with all the shit that was on it...

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.
