#1977 of 3318 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...

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 3318 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?

You will have to provide ALL of the details of this Passat...
#1981 of 3318 It's a GL by jpsmith Feb 19, 2003 (6:55 pm)
w/Tip and ESP. That's it.
#1982 of 3318 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...

Sounds like you have a good initial quote. Buying at invoice, which you are doing, is the max I would purchase at. Remember there is almost $1000 (vci incentives and holdback)in rebates the dealer is making off of you. I would negotiate at least another 500 to 750 more. Last, refuse to pay doc, port, ad, etc fees. See my other posts for explanations.   Good luck.
#1984 of 3318 Here are my results by donpetry Feb 20, 2003 (6:35 am)
Bought a Passat Wagon GLS last night. Fully loaded- tiptronic, leather, homelink, ESP, Monsoon, Cold Weather. Paid $24,900 plus MA tax/title/inspection. Couldn't refuse the financing deal too good to pass up.   I hope my wife loves the car. We pick it up Saturday AM.

I hope you give your children better advice than you are providing here.   Following your formula the Dealer would be better served donating the car to the local Police Dept. or the Red Cross.

You are a dealer, right? Your best interest is making money for yourself! I am only helping out consumers.   I know dealers are awarded $1000 (maybe more?!?) for each Passat sold. There is no magic to this number.   I suggested to JPS to negotiate 750 of the 1000. That is fair. Personally, I would go for 1000 or even more.   Besides, dealers' main cash cow is service/repairs (and evidently they are making a killing with all the coil failures!!).
