OT first time buying a car that cant be delivered for 2 months 2009 td Options

[LarryR]

Well I threw in the towel today and plopped down my deposit for my 2009 vw jetta tdi. It will be my new daily driver.

You can't believe the acceleration of the new TDI's this thing barks the tires all over the place just by blipping the throttle. 0 - 60 in a somewhat respectable 6.9 seconds (not blazing fast but for a commuter...). It handles pretty nicely too. The HP is 140 but has an insane 248 lb ft of torque. It is a real blast to drive.

Since I am buying the first round I got the loyalty package car nicely equiped with leather, sunroof, alloys, heated seats etc... for 24190... I got the reflex silver with anthracite leather... I wanted white but I guess since they built all the demo cars in white that color wont be available till Oct and only the first round cars will have the loyalty package.

Here's the rub, I wont take delivery until Aug. 20. This is the first time I have ever bought a car before it was even built!! They will call me with the vin July 28 when the build is complete and ~3 weeks later it will arrive at the vw dealer.
