Yes, please! I'd be nice to see a new TDI without dealer minions incessant "What'll it take to get you into this?"and "How much a month can you pay?".
I'll bring a bib so I don't drool all over it....

I got the dealer to give me 2010 price and some rubber mats lol... I really busted his balls about the mats cause he wouldn't budge on the price.. I got 7k for the wife's 06 Jetta 2.5 everyone else wanted to give me 5k i said no way.
I don't think i can make it anywhere next weekend i work 7 days a week, that's the breaks if you want to run your own company lol... I might be able to make something else though in the future.

Hi Shaggin',

I just sent you a PM, but GTG stands for Get Together, where members meet up, perhaps do some mechanical work, and also work over a BBQ, etc. Many times there will be tuners, suppliers, etc. It's a great way to meet the members here; keep an eye on the Eastern US forum, since local/regional GTG's are posted there.

Your best chance to get up to speed is this Saturday in southern NH. There will be probably 30-40 TDIs over the course of the day and the best TDI gurus and parts guys in the Northeast if not the country (I don't want to start a battle). I understand the run your own company thing, but it will be the biggest thing until late fall. And it goes til 11pm so close shop at 4pm and drive on up.

There is as much eating and socializing as there is wrenching and several wives attend with their gear-head husbands and still have fun.

Well we'll see.. I just read the post on it in the region section. Sounds cool. I would probably learn a bit there, i'm curious and somewhat confused by the whole tdi and vw world. LOL But i'll see if i can make it. where is the list for what I should bring for food is it in that post?
