Sorry I don't have your exact configuration as this was the one that I was looking for, however I went a totally different route to save even more to get stuff I could not get in Canada. I purchased mine in the states. So here is the summary of what I paid and what I got:
I paid a final total of $37, 350.00 Canadian, (everything included, Taxes, Duty, frieght AC Tax, etc). I got the following:
Brand New 2007 4-Door Red GTI
Package 2 (Moonroof, Dual Zone Automatic Climate Control)
DSG Transmission
Body Kit (Front Lip, Side Skirts and rear Valance)
18" Wheels with Summer Performance Tires
SAT Radio (with 3 months of Sirus Free)
and as a bonus, mine actually came with Headlight washers which I really was looking for, unfortunately I don't have Launch Control, I believe mine was a late 2006, but cool with me.
To give you an idea of how much I saved, it would have been $43, 000.00 (with taxes, freight, etc.). That was a calgary dealership, but then again, they were charging $4,000.00 just for the body kit. I also wouldn't get my Dual zone Auto Climate Control in Canada and most 4-door 2007 GTI don't have headlight washers.
The only real issue is that the KM on the speedo are in small letters, but that's minor and I had to obtain fianancing through my parents to get the money since you can't lease from the states. Also banks don't like to give you money for a car loan if they know it is being bought in the USA. Hope that helps.
