#1329 of 3318 GLX deal by isuzudave1 Jul 19, 2001 (7:38 pm)
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.

#1331 of 3318 New GLS by jbwrly Jul 23, 2001 (10:57 am)
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.
#1333 of 3318 GLX wagon pricing by ges1 Jul 26, 2001 (3:50 pm)
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 :--)
#1336 of 3318 Positive Car Broker Experience by watchnikki Jul 30, 2001 (11:27 pm)
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
#1337 of 3318 Great deal on now hard to find 1.8T by jkipster Aug 01, 2001 (10:31 am)
Like watchnikki I tried calling dealers and going to a broker to locate a 01.5 1.8T but they either didn't have it or weren't willing to go below invoice because there were so few of them left. So I put in an order w/ carsdirect and they found me a gls auto (in 1st pref indigo blue) w/ luxury, monsoon, and cold weather pkg (I was told it had homelink instead, but at least it's a more expensive option...) for 22,776--$900 below invoice. Only trade-off was beige interior (too bright). With my extended warranty to 6/108K miles, I paid 26k out the door.   I am very pleased w/ my price, plus they got me the lowest rate. I definitely recommend going through a broker of some sort to avoid the hassle of haggling w/ the salesmen/dealers.
#1338 of 3318 HELP! ADVICE ON PRICE & LONGEVITY-- USED PASSAT by kiranarrise Aug 01, 2001 (9:32 pm)
Thinking about buying 1999 GAS Turbo Passat..1.8 liter.. Sticker price is 19,000. What's realistic? Edmunds suggests 16,800 from a dealer. Is that realistic?   Also.. will this be the kind of car that will go run happily for 150,000 miles? 200,000? more?   I fell in love with the interior.. but long-term reliability and low maintenance are key.
