I just picked up GLS 1.8T sedan, 5 spd, leather, Monsoon, ESP for $22K even plus sales tax. That included $500 VW loyalty (I drove an '01 Passat before) and the $400 VW Credit-to-dealer incentive. High-volume dealers like Quirk were at $500-700 under invoice before the incentives -- you should be able to find a deal in that range before the 2004s get here, especially if you work from dealer stock. The best quote I got was $1000 under! |

| I'm seriously considering immediate purchase of a new '03 GLX sedan. Does anyone have recent experience with purchases in the San Francisco area? I'm ignorant of who is offering the best deals, and there are 34 VW dealers within 200 miles! Thanks for any help.... | |

I am in the process of buying a Passat 4mo wagon and the prices I have been getting from the fleet managers have been below Edmund's listed invoice price by $400 to $500. I think there must be some kind of mfr to dealer rebate that is not published. Is anyone else getting quoted under invoice? |
|
| Of course the GLS w/ leather is cheaper than the GLX. The GLX comes standard with leather, Monsoon, climate control, etc. It is one step above the GLS. I don't know what you should pay in Mass, but I just bought a GLX in Wisconsin 2 weeks ago for $300 over invoice with 1.9% for 60 months. | |

I'm seriously considering buying a GLS sedan, 1.8T manual, loaded (leather, monsoon, ESP). I see that VW is offering 1.9% financing at 60 months, but doesn't anyone know about rates for shorter-term loans? I'd prefer 48 months max. I can get 3.99%/48 mos. elsewhere, but if I can get 1.9% (or close) at 48 mos. from VW, obviously I'd go that way. Thanks for any info on this. |
|
| As far as I know, the 1.9% is good for all loans up to 60 months, so a 48 month would also be 1.9%. | |
| Curious about whoweare's $500 in loyalty money. Is this common throughout VW, or limited to certain dealerships? Also, does a history with VW Credit(leasing in my case) help with financing? Thanks! | |

|
| In general, if you can get the same rate on a loan up to X months, you should get the X month loan, rather than anything shorter. You can always pay _more_ per month than your fixed payment, and pay that 60 month loan off in 48 months. You can't do the reverse. Essentially, the bank is offering you a free option to pay sooner or later - might as well take it. | |
