#166 of 251 What do you think? by cocoseng Nov 20, 2007 (5:00 pm)
New to the board... and first time GTI owner. Picked up my new vehicle this weekend for $26,741.   2008 Volkswagen GTI (United Gray) 4dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6AM) Autobahn Package 18" All-Season Tires Ipod Adapter   Think it was a pretty darn good deal, but would love to get your thoughts.

Replying to: cocoseng (Nov 20, 2007 5:00 pm) That's several hundred dollars under invoice. I was only able to get $500 over invoice on my deal. Was this a car on the lot? I had to order mine. Replies to this message: cocoseng (Nov 21, 2007 9:05 am)

Replying to: upstatedoc (Nov 21, 2007 8:34 am) It was on the lot... I didn't really want the iPod Adapter but for the deal they offered me, figured I'd take it.   So far I am absolutely loving my car. It replaced my 99 Jetta, so there is a major difference between the two, but was just joking to my wife that even my boring commute to work feels like I am driving a different route in the GTI.
#169 of 251 Add on Costs by rmorin2 Dec 11, 2007 (6:35 pm)
My dealer wants to add several things to the invoice:   Advertising fee Floor interest Port charge   Are these legit? They come to around $500. I am suspicious that this is just more profit. Please clarify. Replies to this message: upstatedoc (Dec 12, 2007 6:25 am) kyfdx (Dec 12, 2007 8:39 am)

Replying to: rmorin2 (Dec 11, 2007 6:35 pm) The port charge sounds an awful lot like my "import fee" which was $200. Advertising and floor interest? Never heard of them.

Replying to: rmorin2 (Dec 11, 2007 6:35 pm) Did you make an offer of $XXX over invoice?   That is a good way to determine what price you want to pay, but not a great way to make an offer.. As you can see, invoice can be whatever the dealer wants it to be...   Always make offers in dollar amounts...

Replying to: upstatedoc (Nov 01, 2007 7:14 am) You should not have to pay over Invoice for this vehicle. Also, the Import Prep and Full Tank of Gas charge is bogus. If they're going to give you such grief I would skip them entirely, and go to another dealer. After telling them the poor service you've experienced they would be more than motivated to give you better servive and a better price.   Remember folks! When purchasing, it's price of car + plus destination (sometimes already worked in) + Tax + Plates. That's it. Stay away from other fees, and look over your contracts for them before you sign!!!

Replying to: cocoseng (Nov 20, 2007 5:00 pm) Hey cocoseng, was the price of $26,741 out the door? or was that before taxes? What part of the country do you live in?   I live in Los Angeles and test drove the EXACT same car you describe in your post    2008 Volkswagen GTI (United Gray) 4dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6AM) Autobahn Package except that it has 17" denver alloy wheels   They gave me an MSRP of $27,965 and out the door price of $30,761. Anyone else think that's too high? I'm looking for any input. Thanks.

Replying to: futuregtiowner (Dec 19, 2007 8:19 pm) Sorry, been out for the holidays.   That price was before tax and tag. I live in Seattle, WA.
