Dealers didnt even have demo ones till april sometime. I got mine on april 28th and that was in the "first batch" of cars to hit dealers for actual sale.

happily that seems not to be the case, and I fully believe that , in its segment, (which is small, and littered with failures) that this model will ultimately be judged a success.

nice chart, BTW.

women (for a change), empty nesters, S4, A6, and M3 folks, and the younger element - whom I wonder if they might drift over to the GTi camp now that a 2 door is on the market?

...and I'd consider myself part of that younger segment. I just bought my A3 a few days ago and at the time my local VW dealership had 6 or 7 GTIs on their lot. I considered that car, but only for about 10 minutes. The exterior styling just doesn't do it for me - it's almost TOO "cute". The previous generation GTI was a more elegant looking car. The new one looks like it belongs to a freshman college girl. Nothing wrong with that, but its just not me.

March could be on the boat 'sold orders'? __________________ Current: <a href="http://forums.audiworld.com/allroad/msgs/251057.phtml"> '03 allroad 3.0T, 6M - Autospeed Lemon</a> Past: '00 A6 4.2, '99.5 A6 avant, '91 200q 20v, '90 90q 20v, '86 5ktq

Lots of women (for a change), empty nesters, S4, A6, and M3 folks, and the younger element - whom I wonder if they might drift over to the GTi camp now that a 2 door is on the market? __________________
