| Apparently there will be a sporty TDI trim next year for the Jetta. It comes with the Thunderbunny body kit, 18" wheels, special trim and a sport suspension. The EC model will come out next year. My carspace gallery has a picture of the thunderbunny kit and it's ugly. | |
I just checked the IRS.gov web site and the 2009 Jetta is not listed as one of the 2009 autos that are eligible for a tax credit.????

Replying to: etracey (Dec 26, 2008 3:15 pm) c Advanced lean burn technology vehicle. This is a vehicle with an internal combustion engine that incorporates direct injection, is designed to operate primarily using more air than is necessary for complete combustion of the fuel, and that meets certain additional requirements. http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f8910.pdf |

Replying to: redvw (Dec 31, 2008 8:12 pm) Besides, I do not play the dealership "game" of dickering on the price. I tell them up-front that I am busy and will not particapate in such games. Most dealerships, when informed of this, will accept any reasonable offer. (Most are happy to get 4% over their dealer-cost) 1st) I read thru the sales broschure and determined the vehicle, color, options...etc that I desired. 2nd) I telephoned the dealership and told them what I wanted and what I was willing to pay for it. 3rd) Delership called me back 10 minutes later and said they could have the car I wanted by Wednesday. The 1st time I set foot on the dealers lot was to pick up my new VW. The salesman spent about 30 minutes explaining all the neto features right down to how to reprogram the radio if the battery power is lost. He also explained to NEVER leave the heated mirrors turned on lest they will burn out. (Did you know there is a "center" sunshade above the rearview mirror?) BTW: I drive past 2 other VW dealerships to get to this one which is 1.5 hour drive from my house.

If you're an iPod owner with a 2009 model with Nav you'll need 000 051 446 C. This is the special iPod cable for the Media-In port. You get full integration and it's a little pricey. The BMW cable costs over $350. 000 051 446 C can be obtained at your dealer or online. Shouldn't cost no more than $70 but people are paying around $50 to $55 for it.
