Re: VW Golf R - An Update from C&D

We had better be getting ours tomorrow! The launch was supposed to be timed so that everybody got their cars at the same time.

The colour is MUCH better in person than in pictures. After seeing it up close I don't even have a shadow of a regret about choosing the RB over the CSG.

I'm giddy for Friday now.

Grats man!

Bonus points for you for choosing the fastest color!

SOOO EXCITING!!!!! I suspect the spring spacers were still installed and thus the front end would have been about 1.5" too high. As for KESSY.. There is no limit to distance. You can start the car, leave you're keys on the counter at home.. drive 700kms.. and simply not be able to start the car again. It's not the cleverest of systems.. but, it is what it is.

Old boss of mine had an Infiniti FX45. Got his car serviced in Calgary when he was there for business, drove to back up to Edmonton, no keys. The service rep had left the keys on the roof, when he pulled it around.

Re: VW Golf R - An Update from C&D

I have noticed that over the years, certain VW's come with what looks like primer under the hood and others come with the same colour as the car.. Most notably with the Tiguans.. I had thought it had to do with which factory produced the car... but who knows?

10:30AM pickup tomorrow for me. I am blown away how ****ing awesome this car looks CSG for me was the right choice.

Side note, my wheels came today as well and the Wolfy should be home Monday. Pretty good week in the hood!

Congrats man! So excited for you. My CSG should show up at the dealer tomorrow and I'm hoping to pick up on Monday. Can't wait to see it!

I was dreading this day, I'm jealous. But at least I don't have a car payment I guess. I may still have to see if there are any still available just in case I can be pushed into buying one.

Re: VW Golf R - An Update from C&D

There were a few available out there a couple of weeks ago. However, the only problem is the price... Most of the ones I have found have been available from dealers that are charging well over msrp. I can have another look if you are interested.

Re: VW Golf R - An Update from C&D

Must not look..... If I want one bad enough I'll let you know. It would be perfect for my needs. Haha. Maybe I'll talk the wife again. I don't think they are allowed to sell over msrp, I could be wrong though. Whats the out the door cost for one $42?

just did a quick build and price on vw.ca

MSRP: $39,675 + $1365 (freight and PDI) + $5448.20 = $46488.20 out the door

maybe the guys working at vw can give you a better price?
