bardo_state.thanks for that detailed explanation! I got a quote from for a GLS V6 auto,monsoon,leather for $24,659 in bayarea.This works a little different though..This person gets some direct factory prices...So he doesnt have a large no of inventory at his place(in steeven's creek)I haven't been there though..   Does anyone know how good is Electronic Stabilization Program (ESP)???   Also the standard wheel size for GLS V6 is 15",what will be impact on gas if I want 16" or 17" wheels?
#2166 of 3319 so. calif. wagon prices by adam41 Aug 06, 2003 (7:59 pm)
I've been looking for a GLX 4-motion/ESP wagon in San Diego/Orange County for the last few weeks. No one has them in stock. I'm told customers in SoCal just don't want it. I guess no one down here drives much in the Mountains and Snow, although it surprises me given the number of skiers. The dealers tell me they can get the car from dealers up north, but the prices from numerous dealers has been well above the Edmunds TMV price ($500 to $1000 above TMV). This is, in essence, a few hundred above invoice. Maybe this is still reasonable. I can't get any of these phenomenal deals that others are quoting (a thousand or more below invoice). Don't know if any others have had similar experiences. Supply and demand, I suppose. The GLX sedan 4-motion-ESP seems to be in larger supply down here than the wagon.
#2168 of 3319 GLX V6 auto rate!! by james_ca Aug 07, 2003 (11:13 pm)
how is the rate $26,000 + taxes for a GLX V6 auto sounds like in bay area?Also would Labor day make good time to grab a 2003 GLX?   Also wondering wheather we can take Edmunds TMV as the true invoice rate?
#2169 of 3319 2003 GLX Wagon vs. 2000 BMW iAt Wagon by tlr5 Aug 08, 2003 (4:00 am)
I'm in the market for a wagon and was sold on the 2003 Passat GLX AWD ($32,000) when I found a 2000 iAt wagon with all the bells and whistles, 50,000 miles, almost perfect condition, with a 2 yr/50,000 mile warranty for $27,000. I loved that, too. Do you have any advice about what to consider as I make my choice? Any wise insights or enlightening experiences?   From all your messages, $32,000 sounds high for the GLX. As the risk of sounding dumb, is "invoice" or "TMW" the same as dealer cost?   Many thanks!

Congrats on the new purchase! Sounds like you got what you were looking for at a great price! Which Bay Area dealership did you wind up going with?
#2173 of 3319 GLX passat.. by james_ca Aug 15, 2003 (2:32 pm)

#2174 of 3319 ArmourAll by bardo_state Aug 15, 2003 (5:06 pm)
james_ca, ArmourAll is the worst! Not only does it leave surfaces greasy, but it'll attract dust and dirt like a magnet. I've found that Lexol products work very nicely with the leather and vinyl surfaces in my Passat without leaving excessive shine. Not sure what's the best way of cleaning ArmourAll off of the surfaces you've applied it to (perhaps wiping with a clean damp cloth?), but visit the following websites for some great car-care advice: www.autopia.com www.properautocare.com www.carcareonline.com
