Performance Pack or Not? Have you?

How do plan on not paying?
I like the sound of this!

It's called haggling, and if I'm going to drop an extra £1600, £300 of which is useless kit to me, they can move on the price or I'll order from another dealer, lol

I had no no intention of getting PP but peer pressure, from the forum and at work has lead to a change in mind.
Need to keep the car 4.5 years now!

Me too.  Everyone is saying 'go on get it, you know you want to'.  I've asked my dealer what price they can do.  Now I'm not sure if I'll regret it more if I do or if I don't.  Damn you people!

Unfortunately, the best thing to do (and not what we want to do) is wait for the proper reviews and comparisons to come out between the two variants, and ideally for the car itself to be out and in use!  Only then will we truly know if it's worth the cash.  Same with the Dynamic Chasis Control, but at least that's not new tech and I've experienced DCC myself.

Personally, I'm just going to go for it if I get the numbers I want and not worry about it.  It can't make the car worse...surely?!

I'm buying a GTD so specifying the 'Performance Pack' isn't an issue for me.

Kinda glad after reading all the reviews. Sounds awesome!

Yeah, it looks like a great vehicle you're gonna be getting.  I just gotta have the GTI for now, but next time around I may well consider a switch.

Performance pack now added to my order! He says it'd gone to BW 44 but he phoned them up straight away and they said it'll sort itself out because no BW have been allocated yet and it's down to the MY system update and def won't be that late, i'm ok as long as it's here by sept but i'd bare in mind anyone adding it that it may push it back a little, worth asking first methinks??

It had better be good this car!

I added it too, but no mention of a later build week.

I can't see it affecting things, unless of course they have suppliers issues with the diff, or bigger brakes suppliers!

According to my analysis the take up of the performance pack is 31% based on the sticky post.  Just a tad lower than the 33% VW predicted (but we have a low-ish sample size so statistically they are no different).

So one would hope this means they have just the right number of parts!
