#852 of 3318 Another Demo by gdrak Mar 28, 2001 (11:00 am)
I'm from Connecticut, and tomorrow will be picking up a 2001 GLS V-6 4motion w/cold weather, luxury package, and Monsoon. Price w/out taxes is 26.6k. It is a demo, w/430 miles. I can't help but feel that I'm maybe taken advantage of. Would appreciate any input.

#854 of 3318 Mona, sounds good to me. by ducksquat Mar 28, 2001 (12:50 pm)
The only thing I would say to your situation as that my 6 CD changer is costing $395. If yours is just single, I'd question that. Montrond Volkswagon (N. I-45) offers the 6 CD for that. Tint is a good deal, ours was $145. I think you got near same deal but we put in more toys. I'm a pretty good buyer and was satisfied with mine. Your deal is nearly identicle with the exception of add-ons. I'd take it but that's just me. Good for the Houston area!

You are spending almost $27k on yesterdays newspaper. Why? As an extremely happy owner of a 2000 GLS V6, I must say that I would relish the opportunity to get a 2001.5 just to take advantage of the new colors! Do yourself a favor, get out of the deal and figure out what you really want, because, believe me, when you are spending that kinda loot, what is an extra $1k to get absolute latest offering from VW. Also, we both know that this winter was bad, and our fwd 5-speed was amazing in the snow. Might want to rethink the 4motion as well, it is really unnecessary. Good luck!
#857 of 3318 Dear carguy... by gdrak Mar 28, 2001 (2:09 pm)
Unfortunately, I found myself in a situation where I needed to replace a car wrecked in an accident(not my fault), and this was the only GLS w/4motion we could find - 3 other dealers were telling us they would need to order. I think you're right, though, maybe I should take a step back.

yes, the $395 quote was for a 6 CD changer. I'm still shopping for an even better deal, but it's good to know that the quoted amount is not a ripoff.   -Mona

Before rushing into something and kicking yourself later...go to Enterprise and spend $29 per day on a rent a wreck. If you are located, or looking in southern Connecticut, I have a few dealer contacts that might be able to help! Btw...is that a "new body" Passat or a 2001?

I'm from central CT, but thanks for the offer of contacts. Made the mistake of giving a $300 deposit via check, so prob. won't be able to get deposit refunded, unless I find another car at that dealer.   The car is the 2001 - not the updated 2001.5; is that what you're asking? Do you know if the automatic trans. would be as good in snow as your manual?
