I visited Capilano last Tuesday (while wifey's Subaru was having a warranty item fixed) and lo and behold, there were some 2011's on the lot. Shaun Openshaw came to greet me and after checking out a 2010, took me for a test drive in the 5dr 2011 DSG. I was impressed. Lots of scoot and handles superbly when driven quickly. He was very knowledgable and sincere.
Needed to consult wife on whether jackie or leather, so didn't get into any direct negotiations but he did indicate that $500 would be the best discount I could expect, based on the popularity of the GTI. We'll be away for all of September so might not have a chance to visit other dealers' salesmen to negotiate and order before we leave. Guess I'll take my chances on seeing what's in stock when we return in October.
Just wanted those of you in the GVRD to know the 2011's are about and eager to be test driven:happyanim:
