$27,395 for a GLS V6 sedan Manual Trans without any options ?!?! Are you sure they were not quoting you the price for another vehicle ?? MSRP on the base GLS V6 5speed MT is only $23,800 and even with leather and lux packages that still puts you well under what was quoted ! I have not read anyone paying above MRSP for a Passat -- last time I checked (Feb and March of this year), San Antonio dealers were not asking MSRP for even the 4Motions!! BTW, who gave you that quote -- Rod East? Ancira? I would suggest checking with Ancira and ask for John Weil -- had work on a deal with him earlier this year for a GLX 4Motion Wagon. Was ready to go out to S.A. as he gave me an excellent deal -- but a regional dealer ended up finding the car I wanted for a comparable price. However, John was certainly very professional and there was no hard pressure tactics or hidden costs. Good Luck in your search -- with the '01 models coming out soon, you should certainly be able to get a deal on '00 models, especially if the car is on the dealer's lot! George |

| after driving an Acura Integra GS for 8 yrs, and needing something a little bit bigger, I test drove the Acura TL, VW Passat and, Nissan Maxima. The Passat is definately what I'm looking for. The Maxima's rear end was stange looking, but it was a bullet w/ a stick, the TL was a lot of car but looked too much like an Accord and was $2000 more than a loaded GLX. I was quoted $26,516 for a 2000 GLX yesterday. I thought this was a pretty aggressive price. Any comments before I pull the trigger??? | |

Folks, I bought a V6 GLS with luxury + leather for invoice + 3% (or ~ $750) from Carlsen in Palo Alto. Very cool people, gave me a quote over the phone, showed me the invoice (which checked out with Edmunds and elsewhere on the web). They were quick, pleasant, didn't insult my intelligence-a painless experience. Ron Price was higher by about $350. Boardwalk in Redwood City was unwilling to give me a phone quote and the person I spoke with gave me as much runaround as I was willing to deal with-which was about 30 seconds (click). Bottom line, in the Bay Area give Carlsen a shot at your business-they did right by me.. |

| I am looking to buy a Passat GLX either 2000 or 2001. I live in the Princeton NJ area. Can anyone offer any reasonable dealers in this area where I can get a good deal?? | |

I am trying to get my hands on an Indigo Blue 2000 Passat GLX with the tiptronic transmission + a CD changer and a beige leather interior. A dealer here in So Cal is quoting me $28,500 which I figure is about $1,300 over invoice. This price came via the internet. I would like to pay about $500 over invoice for the car. After all, I read all these wonderful stories on this site about paying such great prices. Does anyone have any leads on dealers in CA or Internet sites who are cutting better breaks on this car? |

| If someone is willing to help me out for my purchase, I am very grateful. I live in Miami area, and I try to find a VW Passat GLS with Auto. The best quote is for $22,000 so far, and I called another dealer stating that my target price is $20,700. Seems that we can bargain based on this price. I dont know how much is reasonable, and how to argue "outdoor" price for this car? anyone has a good experience with a good dealer here? Thanks. BTW, now it is July 19, so should I wait for a little longer for 2001 model? | |
| Does anyone know when 2001's will be available in California? | |
| I am firmly convinced that this is the right car for me. Does anyone know what is the going/fair above-invoice rate in the Dallas/Fort Worth area? Any particular dealer recommendations will be very helpful. I am also willing to consider buying from elsewhere, if it will result in a substantial discount. | |
| I have been shopping for a GLX 4 motion wagon. Recently I noticed the 2000 4 motion disappeared off the price list when the 2001 prices came on-line. However, the other 2000 models remain. In addition, I notice for model year 2000 there is no dealer holdback listed but for 2001 there is a 2% holdback. Either this is incorrect or in theory you should be able to purchase a 2001 for less than a 2000 (unless there are end of the year factory to dealer incentives which are not being posted). | |
| Hi, Hope you can help me out. I am wondering what kind of leasing deals people have been finding on Passat. Please specify model/equip/$down, etc. Thanks for your help. I really do appreciate it. | |
