If your family is going to be using the 9,3 you might want to check out www.hwysafety.org   Not exactly a stellar 40MPH crash test rating... But then again...price is all that matters...

They are and I will, Thanks.   And it's not all about price. Differing views have been expressed by you and sschilf on this board and that's great. What troubled me is that I specifically asked for a firm price several times. I realized after getting home what I perhaps should have asked for was a specific off-the-lot cost to be agreed upon. That would ensure that I won't have any unexpected surprises when (if, at this point) I went to pick up the car. It's the sense that I may have been maneuvered that bothers me.   If I'm missing something please enlighten me.
#1975 of 3319 I have already... by vwguild Feb 16, 2003 (5:22 pm)
given you a painless process to pursue. If they did not give you a price and did you not make an offer; how could anything further occur?   If you agree on a cash price; there is a screen that can printed showing the bottom line number. And because your car is being ordered no one can presume what incentives/rates might be at the time of delivery; so forget those components. Current rates are available here all the time.   Once again, if you want something specific agree; on a fair price/compromise and go ahead...If, on the other hand there is something that is on the ground today and you are prepared to drive it home today...Offer Invoice, sign your contract and go home with your new car.   If you pursue the other course offered here you will continue to drive the car that you are in now...Which begs another question...Do you have a Trade In?

Question ... is Passat GL with Tip and ESP an unusual configuration? I've solicited quotes from a bunch of dealers and many are saying they don't have or can't get this combo. It seems odd that the GL's all seem to have Monsoon and/or cold weather pkg but not this far more important safety option.
#1977 of 3319 ESP... by vwguild Feb 17, 2003 (8:29 pm)
is the one thing that I add to Every order, regardless of carline...   Contact me offline...and I will direct you to the Dealers in your area that have what you want.   I have some contacts in Chicago...
#1978 of 3319 ESP by krzyss Feb 18, 2003 (11:26 am)
A few dealer I contacted told me that Cold Weather and Monsoon combination is more popular than ESP and Monsoon. Well it means that people prefer to have warm butts in the ditch with premium sound than premium sound and avoid the ditch. I ended up with warm butt, premium sound and ditch avoider (24400 plus 200 in miscelanous charges plus 5% sales tax).   Krzyss
#1979 of 3319 Best quote I have received so far... by jpsmith Feb 18, 2003 (2:06 pm)
... for 1.8T Tip with ESP (only) is $23,550 out the door, including 6.5% tax. Seems to be close to invoice -- hard to figure what invoice is because of the regional charges. Can I do better than this?
#1980 of 3319 JPS... by vwguild Feb 19, 2003 (9:43 am)
You will have to provide ALL of the details of this Passat...
#1981 of 3319 It's a GL by jpsmith Feb 19, 2003 (6:55 pm)
w/Tip and ESP. That's it.
#1982 of 3319 J.P.S. by vwguild Feb 19, 2003 (10:19 pm)
$23,550.00 OTD...   Invoice is $21,852.00 with no Ad Fee...so plus Tax 6.5% = $23,600.00...so far so good!!! And I have no idea about the DMV; so you have done quite well...   Sign and go...
