This would be my choice too. Please post some pics when you can and Congrats!
So far with around town daily driving we have been able to get by with the OE level 1 charger set at 12 amps. Quotes to install a 220V outlet in my garage run about $1,000 plus the level 2 charger at between $400 and $700. I have nearby access to level 3 DC chargers so will defer installing a level 2 home charger.
Over the life of the car, fast charging will cost you about 10% or so battery capacity compared to Level 2. Whether this matters or not, is personal. I usually ask if you changed your oil regularly or "whenever you felt like it" when you owned ICE. That tends to separate people who care from those who don't, about things like long-term longevity.
I am preparing to install a Juice Box 40 in my garage. The material costs include $169 for 50 feet of 6/2 AWG wire, another $50 for the circuit breaker, outlet, box and cover, plus $599 for the charger. It's a 1-2 hour DIY project if you have the knowledge and skills to pull it off. Note that this is a 9.6 KW charger on a 50 AMP circuit; you can save a few $$$ by scaling back to 7.2 KW on a 40 AMP circiut.
There’s that but I think level 1 with occasional level 3 when more is needed in a pinch wouldn’t be much but I wouldn’t use public unless it’s necessary. We’ve done the same and used public charging only 3 times in 6-7 months that we’ve had the car. I’ll need level 2 if I go EV for my daily. I’ll likely do it before then because I don’t plan to buy another car for a few years and I haven’t decided if I’ll go EV for both cars by then. It just depends on how my options are by then of if I decide to keep my GTI even longer which is a possibility.
