Dave,   I bought my Passat at Pulliam Wray VW in Columbia, SC. It was worth the drive. You can email them at:   bscullypulliamwray.com.   They really took the time to take care of me. Good luck.   London

I had talked about the braking and stuff with the dealer before i took it out for a test drive and had requested his company for it and he came along... I have bought a lot of cars from only a couple of dealers, so was able to go for a test drive... But, i had done this becz there was a new Passat with some body damage, (which i was told had happened during transportation), and hence had to go back to the factory. That is y i could (and y the dealer agreed) test drive this car a bit roughly...   Hope this puts peace in all the buyers mind out there... Well, to think of it, i wouldn't do that to a new car which eventually someone is going to own/use it... and obviously, wouldn't do any harm to that....
#838 of 3256 2001.5 NO HOLDBACK?? by mdugal Mar 27, 2001 (11:23 am)
Update: Went to another dealer in Houston last night. He claims that there is NO holdback existing for the 2001.5 passats. I argued with him, but he held his ground. I really don't have a basis to say that he is wrong.   Does anyone know if a holdback exists for the 2001.5. If so, what is it?
#839 of 3256 2001.5 No Holdback by kimmers71 Mar 27, 2001 (11:49 am)
I got the same story last night...that there is no holdback. He didn't say Passat specifically just that there is no holdback.   He also quoted me a price $900 above invoice on a 5 speed with cold weather, homelink & monsoon. I am definitely going to see if I can do better. And I think I can.
#840 of 3256 PASSAT financing by beachboy2 Mar 27, 2001 (12:33 pm)
Does any one know if there is a 2.9% financing by VW for the new passat? It is for the Jetta, but not sure it's also for the passat. Thanks
#841 of 3256 Pricing for New Passat (2001.5) by wendysg Mar 27, 2001 (12:36 pm)
I live/work in Hollywood/Fort Lauderdale, Florida and I am looking to purchase a 2001.5 Passat V-6 GLX automatic (no CD). I won't pay $695 for the CD. The sale price breaks down as follows: invoice price of $27187 + destination charge ($550) + port prep/reserve ($117) = $27854.00. Then 2.5% of 27854.00 ($696) was added for a total sale price of $28550.00. Then the dealer took $4300 off for my trade-in (carmax offered me $5500 which is rough Black Book price), then added $219 for a dealer service fee, tax and tag fee ($1547.14) for a bottom line of $26016.14. Is the sale price a good one? Is 2.5% too high? Should I bargain to get it down more? Thanks for your help.
#842 of 3256 No Holdback by mdugal Mar 27, 2001 (12:57 pm)
This is contradicting information. On my left, a dealer says there is no holdback for 2001.5 passats. On Edmunds.com it says holdback is 2% of MSRP. Where do I get valid data?   If it's true there is no holdback, then the dealer will probably not budge much on the amount over invoice.   Any feedback??

Try asking on VWVortex.com. This forum has much more activity and the member base is more of the die hard bunch. Very knowledgeable though.

Thank you! I'll check out the website.
#845 of 3256 Dealer Demo by applestem Mar 27, 2001 (2:01 pm)
I have found a dealer demo, GLX with 4-motion in my top color choice. The car has 700 miles on it. Does anyone have any advice on what kind of a price break I might expect to leverage on this car? Is it fair to try and get below invoice? I was not looking for 4-motion, but if I can get it somewhere near the range I was looking, I'd jump on the opportunity.
