Xtrocious 1st Gear November 17, 2009 Share November 17, 2009 how much is the polo? The mint ah? I used to buy it all the time for S$0.40...hahah Just kidding - suspect around S$60k to 70k-ish? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fcw75 Hypersonic November 17, 2009 Share November 17, 2009 The 1.2 TSI with 7 speed DSG is good. I am hoping to get one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ithunk 1st Gear November 17, 2009 Share November 17, 2009 wats the specs hp and 0 to 100 timing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddie 3rd Gear November 17, 2009 Share November 17, 2009 I think the 1.2 TSI is under 10s for 0-100. Not sure about the 1.4 NA. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Singhao 1st Gear November 17, 2009 Share November 17, 2009 According to this other local car site (1 shift), we won't see the 1.2 TSI in Singapore. Can do a search there. We'll be getting the 1.4 NA version. All will be revealed this weekend at the launch. Will be a good car for the missus. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kangadrool Supersonic November 18, 2009 Share November 18, 2009 Guess it will be another overpriced car where AD is trying to pitch it as "premium" ride. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fcw75 Hypersonic November 18, 2009 Share November 18, 2009 If VCS wants to sell the Polo well, they better bring in the 1.2TSI. Otherwise the 1.4 one is just like any other compact (Clio, etc). No difference. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peaceracer 1st Gear November 18, 2009 Share November 18, 2009 Read from somewhere that they will launch the 1.4NA 1st. Some time next year then the 1.2t will arrive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tremor Neutral Newbie November 18, 2009 Share November 18, 2009 Damn it, why can't they launch properly. 1.2 TSI is what we want, who the hell gives a crap about the 1.4NA nothing new. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragingbull Internal Moderator November 18, 2009 Share November 18, 2009 Damn it, why can't they launch properly. 1.2 TSI is what we want, who the hell gives a crap about the 1.4NA nothing new. That's because its only normal for a car company to offer their highest spec model first before bringing in their lower spec-ed one. That logic is so that for those who can't wait and can afford it, they will get the higher spec one. Makes a lot of sense man...but if you're patient enough you'll be rewarded with the 1.2.

Otherwise the 1.4 one is just like any other compact (Clio, etc). No difference. Bro they confirm are bringing in the 1.2 man. It will probably be their biggest seller once it comes in....drove the 1.4 today in a preview. Build quality is so much better than any of its rivals in this segment...makes you feel so much more important. The leather seats come in three colours and the DSG is just a gem. With its quick shifts, you should be prepared for better consumption figures than with the likes of the Jazz or Yaris. Guys, make sure you go check it out this weekend at their showroom. Seriously. The car looks amazing and it's seriously worth the money. Right now it's priced at $62,800 but it will change with the new COE today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porkerlover Neutral Newbie November 18, 2009 Share November 18, 2009 Did you guys see the commercial for this? It was hilarious! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carcuter88 Neutral Newbie November 18, 2009 Share November 18, 2009 Its the only compact car with a 7 speed dsg. Its packaged quite well I suppose. Making swift lane changes or overtaking should be a breeze. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am currently driving the VW Caddy TDi with DSG. Edited November 18, 2009 by Fcw75 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
