So.... if I want a Golf TDI in a specific configuration (4dr, DSG, Xenon, Airbags, Bluetooth) by June, when do I need to order? In the past I have always placed a factory order and waited for my car, but I don;t think VW operates that way. Here's what my dealer rep has to suggest:
"Currently, in Maryland, there are no 4dr TDI Golfs in MD, D.C, VA, PA, or DE. Thats automatic and manual transmissions. I know because I searched yesterday for a customer. The only ones that are in the pipeline, are those that are pre-sold orders. I can assure you it will only get worse until the US shows a significant increase in interest in TDIs. VW allocates most of the diesel allocation for overseas. One year later, we (the US) are struggling to get TDI 'Wagens. We can put an order in for the Golf, and it would take about 4 months for it to touchdown here."
True that? What recommend ye?
