Replying to: fob666 (Jun 07, 2006 3:54 pm)  2 DOORS OR 4? And what does it give you that you wouldn't even expect? Does it have cruise control across the range? A/C and CD? Keyless entry? Alloy wheels? Do tell....along with any driving impressions you have already formed...oh yeah: please!

I just put down a deposit on a rabbit today. It was the first one the dealership had, so I scooped it up quickly. The only color available was silver, which isn't my favorite color in general, but actually looks quite nice on this car. I will probably get it pinstriped to add a little individuality to the silver color (any color suggestions for the pinstripe?) It's a four door automatic, and the seats are the anthracite gray/black color, which is a nice cloth that doesn't make you feel like your clothes have velcroed to the seat. It was really nice to drive, felt very solid at high speeds yet the steering was nice and light at low speeds and pulling into parking spaces. The car was nicely loaded, with a sunroof, heated seats, 6-disc CD player, 16" wheels, advanced traction control system, defrosting mirrors, on top of the standard equipment. Unfortunately, the dealer hasn't received the paperwork for the car, so I have to wait for that to arrive before I can take it home. All in all, I'm very excited! P.S. It was sold as a 2006, by the way.

Replying to: clownfishfunk (Jun 13, 2006 12:06 pm)  Hope you don't have to wait long to take your car home. What part of the country are you in? Seems like they are more on the east coast. Are the rabbits going pretty much for MSRP...I understand there really is not a lot of mark up. Actually, I never thought of silver until I drove a GTI in silver. It is tops of my list in a 4 door Rabbit. Good idea about the pinstripes.

Replying to: clownfishfunk (Jun 13, 2006 3:16 pm) There is a silver 4 door coming into a dealer...I am in CA now and I am waiting to hear what the MSRP is. He said it had the sunroof and ESP and I bet it is loaded like yours. I don't care about a sunroof but do like those heated seats. Does any out there know a site that list the prices for the options?

My VW guy called to say they just got their first two 4 doors in today and he will call me as soon as it is ready to drive. He put my name on it. They got two 2 doors last week and they are already sold. I am pretty excited!!
