Got some at the local VW dealer - only place (close w/o mail order).
12$ a Gal. Oh well, at least its the right stuff.

Man, $12 is a good deal...mine was almost $30 per gallon at the local dealer. Also good chance to pick up some *good* oil filters as well.
There may be a couple places to special order it, but it'll end up costing you wherever you go.

www.germanautoparts.com has the blue G-11 coolant you seek, as well as OEM filters & such for a lot less than the dealer charges. Very reasonable on shipping as well; no handling(or 'hidden') fees, and no sales tax on orders shipping outside of NY.
I won't tell you how I know this right now, but you can ask me when you call there.
