12 days with the Jederp. :disgust:
Speaking of which, I just noticed this morning that the thing doesn't even have a fold down rear center arm rest, and no rear seat vents at the back of the center console. At $21k sticker, It's the epidemy of poverty, only good, IMO, as a first car for a college kid or a poor family. Which, I guess it's good that cars like that are still being made. It's got :impressive: back seat and trunk space, and it also gets pretty epic EMMPEEGEES.
woooow 12 m'fking days. would be interesting to know how many hours they spent on the actual harness install that they billed back to VW.

Hope it is trouble free when you get back.

You'll probably won't like my french shitbox, mine doesn't have that either. I remember my friends mk5 jetta didn't have rear vents but the one I've been in Turkey (aka euro spec) did. Funny thing is my friends Polo doesn't have it either. Also the current Jetta is basically a recycled car, it uses a dash from the Polo and from other cars, so it's basically no different than a Dacia :hue: This is the main reason Jetta is done in Europe.

No rear vents, no care.
Round vents, no care.

Even a poverty spec S has an autodimming mirror with homelink? Since when is that an option?

There's gotta be a mirror that works with blue meanie.

I know, right!!?? I specifically asked the SA the same question and pointed out that this S has the mirror. He insisted it wouldn't work in my 2019. :notsure:

Hope it’s fixed for ya. Is it dusty after 12 days in the pen ?

Too bad they didn’t add the hours, they usually don’t for warranty claims.

Thanks! :metoo:
It was raining pretty hard when I picked it up so no dust visible on the outside.

BUT...

The interior was pristine and dust free and smelled good. I actually think they cleaned the interior, and did a nice job, too. :mindblown:

Yea, I'd love to know what this would have cost me without the warranty. Possibly 4 figures. :iono:

DSG has “no charge” now and they are all 4 doors now?

In 2015 and 2016, 2 doors did exist, they just didn't sell well. I remember searching for mk7's before I bought mine and they used to be a $1,000 as far as I recall. I know mk7.5 has changed with option choices, etc. My SE with non-PP (didn't came out at the time) nor DCC or adaptive cruise, got her $30,900 otd.

VW ditched the 2 doors for the US market for 2017 and up, because lack of sales.

What was the sticker :doe: not what you paid?

My 2 door mk6 TDI with NO options other than DSGAY was over 25k.

I don't think there was THAT much price creep in the GTIs, maybe 3k or so when you compare apples to apples. But yes obviously :plaid: seats 2 door manual with no buttons on the steering wheel doesn't exist today. OH THE HUMANITY
