GTI Edition 40 / Clubsport Thread

Hi all,

I was looking for a thread a while back to and thought, "Does anyone know about this GTi?"

I put down a deposit a few weeks back white with roof. I believe white and red is the only colours coming to Australia however did see a charcoal on the printed out brochure the dealer showed me. I two was worried coz I'm starting to second guess myself, should I have ordered a manual instead? Not much info out there which is really annoying. If it's manual with no roof or $2k more for DSG with roof that's a big jump consider the roof option is $1,850 in itself. Also as tempting as it sounds you can get a R for the same price....

I'm also looking at the new Tiguan R line which is a mean looking SUV....hmmm decisions.

I'm also curious about the Alcantara as well...

I believe its +2k for DSG over manual + another 1850 for the roof.
MRSP then is 47K - manual +ORC, 49K - DSG +ORC, +1850 extra for roof option, +500 for the metalic charcoal. All gestimate figures of course but get the exact figures from your friendly dealer. :grin::grin::grin:
BTW dealer rang today to say my car is in Brisbane now at the wharves. Should get it by end of next week. Now I'm excited!!

Yeah sorry forgot to mention the +.

Yes please send post pics. You'll be one of the first cos I think Sydney get here early July.

Just ordered some car care goodies in preparation for the alcantara interior. Also planning to buy some fresh wipes to keep in the glove box to wipe my hands on before touching the wheel. I don't think thats too obsessive is it?!? I want it to stay mint condition!!

Appears to be no LED ambient lighting on front doors plus no front sensors... :( Why not?

Hmmm interesting. Brian! Can you confirm when you get yours? I'm not so fussed about front sensors but wanted the ambient lighting!!

Some details of what we get and what we lose over the GTI P model. I would have liked the front parking sensors and the interior led lights but very happy to lose the tartan cloth!
