ok....what's the deal with dealer asking for sticker price on the Passat TDI trying to tell me its my lucky day that they will not ask for anymore that sticker???? ....BS .... thats what I wanted to tell the sales manager, are you kidding me???I said. He said its my call and he acted as if he didn't have the time to waste since its a "TDI". I am sorry people but this CRAP has to stop. I nearly told him you'r lucky I am back here again after my 2001 Jetta gave me SOOOOO much trouble and I am still trying to buy a VW product....all my family are driving Japanese products and have No proplem. For people out there STOP paying sticker for the TDI you are spoiling it for the rest of us.....sorry i had to vent

Right on, brother !!! Living in Texas, I can't believe people are paying sticker for the car since diesel has such a bad rap here. When I went to the dealership, they intimated that they would discount the thing by $1000-$1500 bucks.
 
My belief has been they have limited the production to increase demand for the car. The car is selling around 5,000 to 6,000 dollars more than a 4 cylinder Passat.

It's basic supply and demand. As long as people are willing to pay sticker, they'll sell for sticker.
 
Good luck with your one man crusade.

Well, your post just illustrates that they are not "lucky" at all - if they're selling them at sticker and still can't keep them in stock, they don't need your business.
 
Now, anyone have an experience where they actually purchased the vehicle?

NEW W8 Wagon Blk/Blk 6spd. **SOLD** by domenico

Purchased for $33,700 + tax&tags. Sticker $41,700 Wes Greenway in Alexandria, Va. Great deal, nice guys. Pick up this weekend. Only issue was front brakes were warped and they are now replacing entire front brake system. Car had 60 miles on it. It sat in the showroom for most of the year. They are making me very happy with the service from the beginning. Rare for a dealership. I would recommend them highly. CAN'T WAIT FOR THE WEEKEND!!

Congrats on your new W8. I am sure you will be very happy with the purchase. How did the Rotors get warped with only 60 miles on the odometer?

What is the lowest price you are getting for a GLS 1.8t with manual or automatic (ESP) and no options? From a Northern Virginia dealership, I have a quote for $19,600 (manual) including freight - good?
 
-Thank you

TDI price by cosmo

I went shopping for a Passat GL with manual transmission and ended up buying a GL TDI wagon with all available options. The dealer wanted $2,400 over sticker. After 5 hours on the lot, the dealer wouldn't budge on the TDI's price, but upped the offer on my trade-in by $2,500. I had researched the value of my trade-in on Edmunds' and Kelly's web sites, and their original offer on my trade-in was actually very fair. Thus, I figure I managed to get the TDI for $100 under sticker price. Nothing to brag about. But, I don't feel like I got the shaft either.

As Terry over in Real World Trade In values likes to say:
 
the only thing that matters is the difference

Not sure. All I know is the car sat in their showroom for most of the last year, over 300 days. I drove it and new immediately. I am aware some people had issues with the rotors. We'll see soon.. Anyway we pick it up tomorrow.
Any other W8 owners out there??
