yo guys...just had my 1st run with the VGCM folks this morning to Gohtong Jaya....it was a good experience. We have about 5 GTI, 1 Golf, and 1 Polo turned out.


Learned a lot from them, from driving, modding, and taking care of your ride thumbup.gif ...and all is a bunch of nice + funny ppl. I invited some from here but too bad none of them can make it to join the run sad.gif


Below are some pics after the run (at Gohtong Jaya)

Members make the club... Moderators I will kaw tim.... got members coming or not?

Last time I post Friday, nobody wants to come.

Friday is more ideal cause we can go for RUNs after that.....

I also prefer Friday k3v....see our last convoy to Putrajaya after TT, a lot of them say that it is late, tomolo gotta work, this n that. If it is Friday then most of them sud not have this excuse (minus some minority tat work on sat la)...

Btw welcome to LYN forum....there has been a lot of questions and difficulties in joining VGCM forum, and it is all been answered now smile.gif

Count me in for the petition! Let's try our luck man! I'm so pissed off as my SA already confirmed that there will be no additions to the GTI for the rest of 2011. I even said that if that I'm willing to wait if got additions even with a price increase. Now no price increase I lagi marah!
*
if they tell you got such a deal coming soon, who gonna buy the earlier batches of the GTI? actually whatever the SA tell u or me earlier makes perfect sense for them in term of commercial strategy. We r just victims and cant really do anything. After all whatever we heard before, now and coming soon is only verbal. They r not updating the brochures, website yet because of all this. So they can say whatever they want.

ps: I got my car end of April....and am as frustrated as any of u. Me too hope that they will do something for us but i doubt that it will happen.

I agree that its commercial strategy but there are ways that the dealers could communicate to the potential buyers and still push for sales. I know they want to push existing stock but please do it ethically. The response from the dealer was very firm " it is confirmed there will be no additions to the new batch GTIs for the rest of 2011. You better buy now as its confirmed that there will be price increase of 8-10k as it is proven by Passat CC's 20k increase. VGM will not give any of those features unless the model is phasing out"

I mean if it's just one small addition like USB or start/stop button, then I can still give in la. But its a whole long list of new and expensive features! Let's march to VGM in a group and look for Mr. Andreas Prinz, MD of VGM. Even if we dont get anything, I still kam muan and make them stressed out a bit. But we have a to go in a bigger group la.
*
I never trust any salesman...coz i know a lot of them....haha

Even now what we heard of the additional things is still verbal. Have anyone seen them in port besides the SA? The additional stuff without additional cost still sound too good to be true to me. I assume that is not a news but just some sales trick until some1 got their car and post it here. By then I might make much more noise than u lol

Anyway I still wish all the new buyers the best la....hope the promised come true!
