end of month and end of year sales numbers at the same time
Does VW's fiscal corporate year coincide with the calendar year?

You can very well do that.
I know that you have been in the market for some time and not sure if you have started talking to dealers. What if you wait till Jan and dont find the vehicle of your choice (options and exterior color) with your dealer (if you have finalized a dealer). There is a chance that you might have to compromise of the options / color or start the negotiations all over again with a different dealer.
Good points. If only they made a the mk8 gti front end similar to the Jetta gli. I think the Jetta gli front end looks pretty good
Rabbit, if you fly/buy you can swap out the head unit. Easy enough, run some wires and viola. You have 8” infotainment with Sirius.
People were getting 5 grand off back in the summer time...Actually I looked at the two largest dealers in my (Midwest) area and each have 5 SEs in stock. More than I had thought. Don’t think you’ll get $7k off. Expect about $5k off MSRP. In my experience 19s will really start to be scarce in another month as the 2020s start to come into port. IMO this is your sweet spot right now. Good luck.
mk8 tech scares me
(not a fan of any new model)
I was reading some DIY threads for swapping out the head unit for 8inch. You have to either run antenna wires to the shark fin on roof or install an aftermarket antenna, first option requiring your to rip many panels off car and run wires. This DIY also required a new glovebox and there was some washing out of the headunit on a corner because of the clips flexing the face on the new unit, couple people had this issue.
Also, read the new head unit has to be coded by a guy named "Jack" that you pay $350 to otherwise many functions don't work including the backup camera?
Sounds like a pain, right? I'm a diy kinda guy and have installed aftermarket stereos but with the money required for all the harnesses, headunit, coding, your time etc it makes more sense to just buy the SE.
It’s not summer any longer and there is nowhere near the same inventory nowPeople were getting 5 grand off back in the summer time...
