<snip Marc> Is this model available in the USA? 15000 Canadian $ for a brand new Golf. Last year's model actually, but brand new nonetheless. <end snip> According to Autoweek last week, it's strictly a Canada thing. VW Canada got it because the new Rabbit in Canada goes for $19k CAD (compared to $15k US). VW Canada felt they needed a car with a lower entry price. -Brad '86 Scirocco 16v
