German market Jetta.. built in Mexico....can you say Euro..
While in Germany recently the local VW showrrom had a MY10 Jetta kombi in black over gorgeous uprated black leather. This car was loaded with options not available in North America, but we know that. Could there be a work around such as a Mexico delivery of German market car? I'm suggesting you could always play games with 'any delivery" process. I've bought a few cars via European delivery arrangements, so I have a comfortable sense of how it could be cheated. You would have to have big gonads to execute this kind of nonsense though... and for a VW station wagon? Not bloody likely.
I've brought up the "special ordering" subject with the Sales & Marketing powers that be of Audi USA. Many of the marketing heads at Audi USA advocate such "special order" arrangements and believe it or not.... wait for it... the retail dealership's nix'd the program possiblity. Seem's the contract law's at the state level is a hurdle. There was a significant admin cost to such a "special order" program one Audi guy sighted. To which I replied, Yeah the kind of Admin cost Porsche AG has. Last I checked Porsche AG is far and away the most profitable production car manufacture on the planet.
My wife and I both own their sports cars... Ever glance at the 911 order sheet? The word NO is not in the Porsche lexicon.
Hello VW Canada, yeah it's me. I'd like to order a car..............
P.S., Our MY06.5 a late August 2006 production USA Jetta TDI has all the pre-decontent strategy options Chitty mention's. It's a nice under the radar TDI sedan. Leather, memory seats/mirrors, Navi, homelink, rear shade, etc. EDIT: no walnut trim or power passenger seat.
