Kamei body parts
ABT-Sportsline chip good for 125 HP

For sure - I will collect a replacement for that fine car on Thur, 14. Dez at Autostadt, Wolfsburg, Germany.

A brand new NBC TDI PD DPF (105 HP) colored salsa red with a black top.

Yay! A TDI NBC! And salsa red too. Yummy! I wonder how long the trip is from Mexico to Germany. Post pics!!! Can you take pictures when you're in Autostadt too? That would be really cool. So this is an 06 right?

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!

Why, oh, why, can we not have NBC TDI's over here?

Anyhoo, pre-Congratulations!

Well I'm glad to see you're replacing one good car with another

Enjoy!

For every end there is a new beginning... with wind blowing through your hair! Sorry to hear your buddy is leaving you but congrats on your new purchase!!

Like Cori said, some photos of the new toy and the show would be killer!!

[DO-KM]

Thanx for all your responses - I will take some shots at "Autostadt" as I'm going to spend the whole day there together with a friend of mine.

It's quite interesting there - exhibitions of every Volkswagen brand (Bentley, Skoda, Bugatti, Lamborghini) as well a museum to be visited.

Last time I've been there, they have had the last Beetle that has been built as well as the original "Concept" NB from California.


@CoriBug - The trip from Mexico to Germany will take approx. 6-8 weeks usually.


Edit: Returning home I found a letter by "Autostadt" confirming everything including a Euro 50.- voucher and some info material.

It's a pity - but not that much hair left (being not Lucy Jordan - usually there are quite a lot of traffic jams in Paris)

Not necessarily - I just ordered a complete black leather interior.

Also available as bi-color dashboard: Black + Grey, Black + Cream
or single black dashoard with cream or grey carpet (at least in Europe)

and in addition ....

Really nice man, but no all black interior in the US as of yet, arg! As soon as it appears, I'm swapping out the grey parts (click my signature for pics and details of my vert). The last pic shown is exactly like the interior of a special convertible model sold here in 2005 only (note the 'old' style cupholders).

Nevertheless, your car looks amazing.

fyi there are 3 different leather trims available over here:
leather on standard seats (add 1570 Euro)
read leather (as above) on standard seats (add 1720 Euro)
leather on sports seats (add 1835 Euro)

imho That's really expensive (compared to the U.S.) as nothing else is included in this surcharge (no power roof, no 17" alloy wheels ...) just the seats.

If you're willing to pay that additional fee they will give you the lower part of the dashboard in a color fitting the color of the leather interior you've chosen

[Billsbug]

Well, in the US you can't special order anything. You can 'request' a list of options and then the dealer will look at what they pre-ordered from VW Mexico. If it's not part of their dealer order, then they search around for what you want at another dealer. That's how I got mine (the only other one I've ever seen exactly like it is in Belgium).

Sport seats disappeared in '05 over here. BTW, can you get black exterior on the cabrio?

yupp either "deep black" or standard black (but I don't know what really is the difference between those - except the price)

Also a nice option:

06's had the option of all black except the pillar covers and headliner. Vert's too.
Anyone done any research into if or not we can import a TDI vert?
