Very nice. So do you guys get plates the very same day you get your car? In TX, we have to wait while the plates are shipped to the dealership, usually within a couple of weeks (or even more). Enjoy!!

This is the newest thing for Illinois (not get temp plates and getting regular plates from the dealership right away)
..only problem is they added $30 to the fees for this 'get instant plates' deal!

MSRP on base 2010 TDI golf with no options (6spd manual) is a hair under $23k with destination charges if that is what you are askingKeven said:

Nice...I can't stand that from dealers, hehe

meh, if I would have asked them NOT to put it on, they would have honored that.. it was my own fault for forgetting to ask.. I was more concerned about them NOT installing the front plate bracket to be honest (not easy to remove drill holes!)

Sucks you had to drive it home in that weather. Looks good!

Yeah, I did cringe about this snow storm BUT I made it back safe n sound!
I still can't get over how freaking quiet this thing is... You have to roll down the window and listen intently to hear the slightest hint of it being a diesel (most probably wouldn't even hear the ever-so-slight tell-tale sign!)

As ibid mentioned, its a recent thing. For years, dealers around Chicago would make you wait forever for a plate.....they were probably using the tax money from the sales transaction to pay off their bills until more revenue came in. Motorcycle dealers in our area in particular were really bad about this.lilredjetdiwagon said:Very nice. So do you guys get plates the very same day you get your car?

Looks great man. Good options too with the Nav and cloth. That's how I'd want it. People make way too much of a deal over leather. Cloth looks nicer longer and doesn't get super hot and super cold. I really dig the MKVI golf. Much nicer than the MKV's IMO.

I actually did NOT get the NAV (touch screen is standard for the TDI golf though)Farfromovin said:
I do prefer cloth though (not icy cold in winter or burn me hot in summer) PLUS our 17 pound dog Molly prefers the cloth so she doesn't slide off the seat

Enjoy the new TDI. In Wisconsin we get the plates at the Dealer. Three of my letters on my plate are FTW believe it or not. I wonder how that got through the cracks. Just read that backwards... Otherwise they are so anal about plates and their hidden meanings here in Wisc.

I thought about a getting clever vanity plate but rates have just gone up another $20 as of jan 1st here in Illinois and I just dont' feel like giving the state any more money than I have to.

I tried to convice my wife that I need to trade in my sedan and get a Golf so we have two hatch backs. Since we got hers I have fallin in love with it. I like having the height in the back. She made me realize after buying 10 vehicles, 9 of them new, since 2004 how much money we have lost.
But I like the car. Does it have the winter package?

perfect car. congrats
WOWW! Congrads on a great looking car!! Very sporty looking and love the 6 speed, the nose and the clean sporty interior.... Looks like a TDI dressed up in a GTI suit. Wonder how much HP and torque this puts out?

I picked up my 2010 Golf TDI on 12/31/09. United Gray Metalic 4dr DSG. That was not my first choice (2 dr manual with xenon was 1st), but then there are not a lot to chose from here. At any rate, I am blown away by my new car. BTW, the dealer gave me a crooked smile when I asked for the dealer decal to be left off the hatch door, but he complied. They are pretty good guys (Hewlett VW in Georgetown TX)
