I am being offered '01.5 Passat GLX (no 4 motion) Auto w/ in dash CD player for $27,750 (includes dest charge)+ TTL. Is this a good deal?
 
Also, what should my residual value and money factor be for a 36 month lease?
 
Thanks so much.

Good deal on the GLX - and I've had mine for 375 miles. It is awesome. Real solid. Residual was 56% for 18k, 36 months, can't comment on the 15k.

I got my new 2002 Passat last week for what I believe was a good deal. It is GLS, Silverstone, grey velour, homelink, luxury package, monsoon sound, and added a cd player.
 
$23,686 + $425(cd)= $24,111(doesn't include tax, title, and license)
 
We have had the car a week and couldn't be happier with it.

Congrats on your new car! Just looked at the new Passats at my local VW dealer and they seem really nice. By my math you got if for over $600 under MSRP - not bad for a 2002.

I have been offered a 2002 GLX Passat 4 Motion wagon at $430 under MSRP. Leasing this for 3 years, I got a 60% residual and a .00290 money factor. The lease terms seem ok, but what's your reaction to the cap cost? I don't want to pay a cap reduction fee either. (I am up in Alaska, so inventories are limited.)

My understanding is discounts are hard to come by in Alaska, so you've done well. It may not be worth it to buy a car in Washington and either drive or ferry it home.

Yikes! I go on vacation and my thread maxes out in my absence. Thanks so much for all the thoughtful replies. I don't think I'll be buying a beautiful new Passat until I've worked out from under the rest of my debt. Now I just have to figure out what to do with my leased Saturn that I'm about to run out of mileage on -- 1 year early.
 
PS. Off topic -- but Teddy Roosevelt National Park in ND is incredible! Drive your Passat up there next summer :--)

I just purchased a 2001.5 Passat GLS V6 Automatic, Leather, Luxury, and Monsoon system (Anthrasite Blue/Grey Leather,in case you're wondering). After shopping around, both by visiting dealerships and faxing 20+ VW dealers (I live in LA so there are plenty to choose from), it appeared that the best price I could get would be $200 over invoice.
 
On a lark, I tried using the car buying service offered through my credit union, Autoland. Within an hour they located the car--for 26,100!!! Nearly 500 below invoice. Don't know how they did it, but I'm not complaining.
 
So, if you're credit union (or insurance provider, or whoever) offers a similar service, give them a shot. Autoland did wonders for me.
 
Love the car, BTW
