Replying to: ladyofthelake (Oct 30, 2006 4:16 pm) Did I sound like I didnt kno what i was talking? i apologize..yeah i was pretty surprised at my negotiating power. Infact the surprising part is demontrond called me back and was ready to beat the $33500 deal by 500, but I told them i wont take the pain of going to houston for saving 500 bucks I took it from Hewlett VW in Georgetown, 15 miles from Austin. Havent taken delivery of the car yet..like i said earlier, the little dent will be fixed by thursday, and Friday is the day. thanks again for all the help

Replying to: vw_rider (Oct 30, 2006 7:35 pm) Was really just teasing you. FRIDAY!!! SOOO soon yet soo far!! Please post when you get your new ride!You found it close to home, even better. It's great if you can get your service from your dealer. We don't even have a VW dealer in our town, will have to drive 2 hours to get to the closest one if we need it. Needless to say we are praying it will be reliable.

Replying to: ladyofthelake (Oct 31, 2006 6:03 am) Not so bad, b'cos the sales person told me that this car won't have its first service until 5K miles. Then, 10K miles and then 20K miles afterwards. Hehe.

Replying to: vw_rider (Oct 31, 2006 8:49 am) Hope I am not annoying you with the frequent posts. We were originally concerned about the "break in period" that we are accustomed to in american vehicles because my husband had to drive our new car all the way back from Houston (800 mi). I believe the book asks you not to exceed 75% of the car's top speed during the break in. Well, the top speed on the speedometer is 160mph!  Made for the Autobahn I guess. Check with your dealer regarding this, but our dealer confirmed it. We suggest breaking in your new Eos with a bottle of champagne and a close friend(spouse). Make sure the car is in PARK in front of your house first!

Replying to: vw_rider (Oct 31, 2006 3:11 pm) I am sure you can't wait to have the car on Friday. Make sure you put a lot of miles this weekend since the weather is just SO PERFECT this time of the year for a convertible. Be sure to snap pictures too. Here's mine to share with you guys.

Replying to: houstonvwshop (Nov 04, 2006 9:05 pm) also, houstontx and ladyofthelake, eventful weekend, we took delivery of the car, and on the way back, i had an accident in the new car...luckily nothing happened physically to me or my fiancee, but the tun light broke and there's a 2inch dent, apart from some paint job on the front left side. shook us totally, so no celebrations, no pictures. really an anticlimax. pray for us
