#869 of 3256 Dave by afk_x by dpr5 Mar 29, 2001 (8:30 am)
AFK, Why bogus? At least in NC, (I live in Chapel Hill), the license or tags is what goes to the State. It runs about $60. Some dealers tack on a $40 to $100 doc fee. Some do not. For instance when my wife bought her Civic last year, 2 dealers quoted invoice plus $300. Dealer A was invoice + $300 then $300 Dealer prep + Tax + Tags ($60) + $40 doc fees. Dealer B was invoice + $300 + Tax + Tags ($60). Who do you think we bought from?. I am not denying that it cost to process but by adding discretionary fees after the negotiation is bogus. Dealer A should have been up front and said I am charging Invoice + $640 cause that is what he was doing. Dave
#870 of 3256 My new car and Corrado by applestem Mar 29, 2001 (1:01 pm)
First on the Corrado - I dated someone who had an early 90's Corrado (can't remember exactly what model year) and it was a mess! He had a lot of problems with it and ended up trading it in after only a few months for a new Jetta. Couldn't tell you if his situation was unusual for the car, but based on that I wouldn't want to buy one.   Second, I will be picking up my new 01.5 GLX tonight. It's Fresco Green (what a great color!) with black leather. I got the car, in-dash CD and all dealer fees for $28,300 - only paid taxes and tags on top of that so I think I got a great deal! I can't wait to pick it up and drive it home tonight!

#872 of 3256 Just Bought a New 2001.5 Passat Last Night by troark Mar 29, 2001 (5:50 pm)
Last Night - Bachman WV, Louisville, KY ---great experience, great price... no hassles....GLS I/ everything $28,600, MSRP was 30,075. Maybe no excellent deal, but I thought the sales staff and management were exceptional to deal with. Love that tiptronic! For anyone interested, Mark Crier was the salesman (told him I would bring him some business). 1 888 258-5203. It's worth a call for anyone who's shopping.

#874 of 3256 Malik71829 by its_kristy Mar 29, 2001 (9:01 pm)
Don't know if that is a good deal or not, but isn't that something you should have found out *before* you leased it? Try doing a search on this and other forums. Many people have asked the same thing on this site.
#875 of 3256 malik71829 - good deal ??? by 20015 Mar 29, 2001 (9:30 pm)
if u r willing to pay 4-5K downpayment, then u could have bought the car for about $550/month ! May be u could still do it ? try out... and at the end of the day, u could own it and after 4 years, could sell it for atleast $15K-$17K ....   but, thats my 2 cents...
#876 of 3256 Price Breakdown for Mona by applestem Mar 30, 2001 (6:30 am)
$28,300 (GLX, with Tip, In Dash CD and all fees, sorry I can't break this down more, but I just worked on a bottomline number rather than negotiating all pieces separately). ~ $944 (Tax, Tags) Driveout Price - $29244   I did my negotiating over the phone, there's 5 dealerships within about 15-20 miles of my home (Wash. DC area) and a total of 20 in the DC Metro area. So I called all of them with my top two color choices. Found three dealers with potential cars (one was a GLX 4Motion demo with 700 miles on it). Couldn't get the dealer with the demo to drop below invoice but worked with the dealer with my second color choice car down to the above price (but without including fees). I then called the dealership with my top color choice and asked him to meet the price and include fees. I was able to offer that I would pay for the car in full that day which I'm sure was a help. When I got to the dealership I was worried that they'd back down from our phone agreement, but they were great - very smooth and painless actually! I may have been able to drop the price a little bit more but I was happy with the price I paid, I know they made a little bit of money and bottom line is I got a car I love!
#877 of 3256 GLX Pricing Help by bullseye10 Mar 30, 2001 (7:07 am)
I am confused about invoice on the 2001.5 GLX with Tip. I was quoted invoice of $28262, which is the standard $27187 plus $1075 for the Tip automoatic. Is this correct? Is Tip considered an option and the price tacked onto invoice? I was quoted a sales price of $29500 (Silverstone Grey/Black Leather). Seems I can do better...
#878 of 3256 applestem by mdugal Mar 30, 2001 (7:23 am)
was that deal you got with automatic?? I guess my deal is somewhat comparable then. I'm getting $30,900 for the same car you have, but just brand new. Sounds fair you think?
