The reason these are 2006s instead of 2007s is because the V10 TDI and the Jetta TDI motors won't meet the new diesel restrictions coming out in 2007, but they CAN legally be sold as 2006 models. However, as someone mentioned above already, they also "need" the low sulfur fuel that is just now becoming widely available.
So basically there is a small window of opportunity over the next few months where VW will be able to meet some of the huge pent up demand for these cars, just before it becomes illegal to sell them. If you want one. get it now. It may be a couple years before diesel VWs are available in the states again.
