Bought my '13 early last year just around the time mk7 features were being released.
Given a choice between the two, I would take the MK7 on mechanical upgrades alone. But my last two cars (from highly reliable mfg) were first model years and vowed never to buy another first model year vehicle again.
I have zero problems with a Mexico assembly plant. The problem is the hundreds of feeder part plants building totally new-to-them components/assemblies. There will be teething pains as they go through their manufacturing learning curve. This is especially true with a brand new assembly plant in Mexico that hasn't yet developed good working relationships with their brand new suppliers.
I will buy a MK7, just not the first or second year.
