Replying to: kyfdx (Jul 30, 2008 7:01 pm) No way they are selling it for $15,300.... It's a little shady on the dealer's part, but you have to add $2,000 to the listed price up top. They have it $13,400 roughly. But anyways, that's not the only dealer advertising for right around there. Most of them just list it at between 15k and 16k. I was wrong about the Rabbit. It's $13,900, not $13,300. http://www.suntrupvw.com/MiscPage_3?siteMapItemName=468494508DB4100480480003BA77- 890F

Replying to: depreciation (Jul 30, 2008 7:33 pm) 1) The price is after a customer $2000 downpayment 2) Assumes $500 customer loyalty bonus 3) Tries to pass off the Jetta SE as "formerly known as Wolfsburg edition". It may be similar to the '07 Wolfsburg, because that model had the 5-cylinder engine.. The '08 Wolfsburg has a turbo and is $2000+ more.. 4) Notice the ad for the Jetta SE at the top... Underneath, they show lease prices for both the S model and the SE model... So, which model is the $13,325 price for? Betting on the S model.. So.... other than the $4500-$6500 difference in advertised price, they are right on the money..  Now.. that doesn't mean they don't possibly have good deals.. but, their advertising would do a Chrysler dealer proud.. Which is why we have these forums... To find out what people really pay for their car.. regards, kyfdx

Replying to: kyfdx (Jul 31, 2008 3:01 am) In my reading of the ad, it's even one step more misleading: Not only does the fine print mention a $2000 cash or trade and $500 customer loyalty bonus, it also mentions $1999 down payment. Given the discrepancy of a $1, and the language used, they can say that the $2000 cash/trade is different than the $1999 down. So: $13325 + $2000 + $500 + $1999 = $17,824 + TTL. And, as you said, this is probably for the base S model. I have a 2008 Jetta SE w/ mats in south florida (that I got in Dec. '07), and I'm currently paying $285 a month on the lease (for 15,000 miles and 39 months and not 12,000 miles and 48 mos. like the ad states), including all fees and TTL. So, in my view, this ad is not a good deal at all. |

I just perfected a lease transaction this weekend for a 2008 Jetta S with manual transmission an cold weather package + mats. I used Edmunds.com to send RFQs to about five dealerships and I had emails from all of them. They are not usually giving you the quote though, they want you to go and meet their salespeople but I did have two that quoted me the invoice price. After I insisted that I have a better offer from the other one I got one of them to go $100 under invoice. Final negotiated price $17,500 (destination charge and a few other invoiced charges included). It all came down to $232 / month with $0 down for 36 months / 12K (paid though taxes, bank fee and MV fees upfront). What I really liked is that I conducted all the leasing process via email with the Internet Sales Manager. This took an afternoon of email exchanges with my license, credit application and insurance documentation. Next morning I picked up the car in 30 minutes. It was the most hassle free and easieast way to lease a car I have ever experienced. The dealership I dealt with is VW Legend in Amytiville, NY.

Replying to: hondalegend (Aug 11, 2008 6:58 pm) Am I correct that you got them to $21,000 before taxes, etc? What did they say the invoice was? Do they seem at all more flexible in light of the fact that the 2009s are coming soon? And why did you opt for the 2008 over the 2009? Any other advice you picked up from your negotiations? I'm looking to buy either in the NYC area or in Georgia. Thanks!

i think that he might of purchased the 08 instead of the 09 due to the fact that the 08 has the longer warranty....4-50,000 VS 3-36,000 starting with the 09's....however,on the other hand the 09's include carefree maintenence and the 08's do not....if it were me given the jetta's past reliability issues i would probably opt for the longer warranty with the 08's....just my opinion here and there are also better deals to be had with the 08's.......
