Well, I finally got it. Its beautiful, smart, has a great personality, and likes to be driven. Picked the car up Wednesday evening, and have been in the car more than any other place since.
Georgetown VW did an awesome job prepping it. Absolutely perfect! I've never seen a car shine so much as when I went to pick it up. Both the president and the sales person went over everything for almost an hour. Mind you, this was at 7:30pm, one hour later than when I was supposed to pick it up. But, they stayed back!!
Thank you Georgetown VW, for the great service and car! These guys really went beyond their duty to help me out. Needless to say, I'll be going there for all my car needs.
I am going to go back to Queensway and show them how they lost a customer who needed a car without any hassles of bargaining for a price and what not, and who wanted to pay cash.
Since Wed night, I've driven it almost 350km. I can't believe how fast this thing is. I have to consciously try to keep the revs under 3000 on the hwy. The damn thing is so quiet, its hard to tell how fast you are going.

Nope, its a 2002 Jetta GLS VR6 with every possible option and package, in galactic blue with black leather.
This reminds me. I am at work, and I have been away from the car for about 20 minutes. Must go back and oogle it again.

I haven't really kept up with when the 24v VR6 is hitting our shores. Is that the VR6 you have or the 12v? Either way you have a great car with a sweet engine. Have fun!

I'm dreading the winter thing as well. I am taking as many pictures as I can of the car before winter sets in and I have to change the rims. Also, how many of you use a car bra in the winter? Is it worth it?

Re: I'm in love. (nerio)

DO NOT use the bra in the winter,the salt will migrate under the bra and with the movement of the bra on the highway it will leave scratch marks underneath.Just give your beauty a two coat wax and hope for the best.

well. lucky you that you have luxury of buying a car from a such a good neighborhood. Ofcourse the dealership is high quality. Not like the one that I had to deal with in Allston MA, called Boston VW.
anyway congrats!

Re: I'm in love. (nerio)

My opinion, even if I don't use a bra, don't get one they diminish the looks of the car (I think they're ugly...sorry...like someone driving a grand am would put one and that would be ok but not a VW). I've been driving my car through 2 winters in Montreal (harsher winters than Toronto) and I have very few paint chips from sand/salt/gravel spread on the highways/streets. Also, I would be afraid that the paint exposed to daylight vs. the unexposed part underneath the bra would make a notifiable demarcation.

squeaks... they do come, more $$$ on the car... well... its inevitable.
I like my car more now than when I first bought it. Give it about 10k and then chip it. Youll feel like you just bought a BRAND new car! This ones on me

Queensway blows!

So I dropped by Queensway on a Saturday to pick up some VW leather cleaner, you know the stuff you can buy at the dealer. So it's sitting in this little glass display case along with some other VW junk (pens, Mugs etc).
And I'm like, "Hey I'd like to buy the leather cleaner."
And she says, "Oh I'm sorry our service department is closed today."
And I'm like, "Yeah but it's a display case, just open it up."
And she says, "I'm sorry sir, the diplay case is part of our service department and it's closed on the weekend."
So I'm like, "You're [email protected]$&in kidding me right?"
But she refused to open the case.
Retarded!

Re: Queensway blows! (hawc)

That was funny hawc. Somethings just don't make sense at all and that is one of them. If the product is right there probably like two feet away, how much time/energy does it take to remove a bottle from a glass case??
