Warning: I am talking about Canadian pricing!
I know there has been lots of grousing about the high price of the WK2, but my 2007 was bought new for $62000 (full load, minus DVD). Meanwhile, my local dealership just sold their one and only WK2 (full load, including Pana Roof, minus DVD) for MSRP--$64000. Virtually the same price 5 years later with tons of upgrades--seems like a pretty good value! In Canada, at least
It seems like the dealer mark ups have brought you guys in the U.S. into our price gouged world I think that once the dealer mark ups disappear the price grudge against the WK2s will go away and people will appreciate them more.
I am still torn. I totally get why some people love the WK2. The more I look at the WK2, the more I like it. Once you sit in one you are sold because the interior is so beautiful--it makes you forget about aspects of the exterior you may not like, and can't see while you are driving anyway Without exception, though, my buddies that have seen both still describe the WK2 as "Nice" and "luxurious", but not "cool," or "mean" or "sporty", like they describe my WK1. Time will tell if I'll buy a WK2, but for now still loving my '07--regardless of the prices!
