#2413 of 3318 Re: Driver's option financing [cadrew] by mitchandmurray Jul 19, 2004 (7:51 am)
Replying to: cadrew (Jul 16, 2004 11:47 am) cadrew,   Thanks for the reply. After my posting here I did a search on this site and found out that too many people have asked this question, but there are very few convincing answers.   Anbody else has other thoughts to offer?   Thanks, Mitch&Murray Replies to this message: spektre (Jul 22, 2004 8:36 am) dfmarcus (Jul 27, 2004 5:04 am)

Replying to: mitchandmurray (Jul 19, 2004 7:51 am) In certain states, eg. Massachusetts, you pay sales tax on top of your lease payments. The Driver's Option plan eliminates this particular tax, although you still pay sales tax on the purchase price or portion of it.   Anyone who's bought from Quirk in Braintree, MA - how was your trade-in experience there, if you had one?

I told them how much cars like mine were listed for on various web sites and they were crazy to only offer what they did. They came back with a very good offer - well over blue book.

Replying to: sacto (Jul 27, 2004 12:12 pm) Howdy, Sacto. I am in So Cal. My deal was great, but like I posted above, they were cool about the error in the newspaper. My suggestion is that you wake up on a Friday morning, really really early. Buy every paper you can, and look for the loss leader deals, and be early at the dealership. I believe that right now is a good time to buy a VW, and you can go and make an offer of, say, $21500. Find out what your credit score is first, then when you get to the dealer, say, "My credit score is ---, what is the best interest rate you can give me?" Then, once you have an interest rate, offer the $21500, and put a cap on it, like $21999. Do not waver one bit on that top price, and they will cave, at least they will if they are relatively big and can afford to make such a deal. Having ads from other VW places while shopping will help you too. Good luck!!

#2421 of 3318 zero percent anyone? by vwcurious Aug 16, 2004 (3:23 pm)
I'm wondering if anyone has taken advantage of the zero percent financing offer or has had a hard time getting zero percent financing on their new Volkwagen. Is it too good to be true?
#2422 of 3318 Zero percent financing... by chrisbgood Aug 16, 2004 (7:20 pm)
I didn't even bother (it's only for 36 months)... and the alternative (about 3k dealer cash) made me happier.   Financed through the credit union and I'm done.
