also, when shifting gears, it doesnt feel as silky smooth as I thought a german car should feel...sometimes it feels more friction going into from 1st to 2nd gear. wonder if it'll get better after driving it for a few months.

Great to know, dieseldan9! I've been out test driving a bunch of different cars in the past week (what is with the dashboard in the new Honda Civics!?! Hideous!), and have definitely decided on a Jetta S. The best quote I got was $16990 (plus taxes and fees).

2009JettS,
is your $16600 OTD with taxes and fees? I guess my question is what is the definition of out the door? Thanks.

Quoted $19664 out the door price for a 2009 Jetta S auto by katie27

I did my negotiation through emails.
I am in the state of Indiana. The first dealer gave me invoice price which comes to $20340 out the door, and would not go below that. The second dealer is in Chicago which is 120 miles away and gave me $19580 out the door but she mis-calculated Indiana sales tax. Emailed this offer to a couple of other dealers. One totally pissed off and said this offer was impossible. The other, which is my local dealer, matched the selling price and with real indiana tax, it comes to $19664. The problem is that they do not have the base model that I want and need to get it from somewhere else.
The question is whether I am getting a good deal. Since there was a dealer who got pissed off by the price, maybe the deal is good. But Danny's quote from post #512 is much better than mine. Is Janurary not a good time to buy?

That sounds like a lot, katie27. I'm in Boston, and the lowest total I got (with all taxes and fees) for a 2009 Jetta S automatic was $18,200 (base price for car = $16,900), which I did not take. I'm still shopping around for a lower price. What's the sales tax in Indiana? It's 5% in MA.

Thanks BilKop for your reply. The tax rate in Indiana is 7%. The base price for the car including destination charge is $18,200. Your price sounds really good. If they make a profit with that price, it must mean that there is some factory to dealer incentive that I don't know of. Do you know anything about that?

1st Car Buy by Snoopans

I'm currently saving up enough money to flat out buy myself a car. I've been looking into the VW Jetta 09 TDI and was wondering does it smell like diesel fuel and how difficult are owners finding it to find fuel?

I have 600 miles on my 09 TDI no smell at all! In the my local area about 1/2 of the fuel stations have diesel fuel. I use shell diesel fuel.
