#139 of 811 Jetta TDI in San Antonio, TX by mitchc Oct 19, 2005 (7:42 pm)
Paid MSRP on a Jetta TDI with Pkg 1 and DSG here in Texas. Was about 25.5K I believe. Ordered it two weeks after Katrina hit. I was actually in the market for a used one before the gas price surge, but after that, all the used ones (with auto tranny) in the state were pretty much sold out during that first weekend of September.   Tried to haggle with the dealer, but there was no movement. Everyone at the dealership wanted a TDI. There was some hysteria at that time. One lady was complaining that the Cabrio Beetle TDI someone else was test driving was "hers" as she wanted to buy it on the spot, right after testing it earlier (it was the last TDI left). The dealer wouldn't even throw in the free mats. Of course, I could have waited and saved a couple of bucks, but I will probably save $100 in gas by the end of the month as we put 250 miles on the vehicle per week. On the upside, didn't pay any fees. Just a small doc fee of about $100 to get the tags and sales tax. Besides, buying a Jetta diesel is not a purely economic decision.   Car was ordered early September with an arrival date of 24 October. Was actually delivered first week of October.   On my first tank of gas with mostly highway but also bumper to bumper traffic and short distance errands to various stores through stop lights & parking lots, etc., got 40 mpg. Big improvment over the 17 mpg I was getting in my SUV! Replies to this message: mitchc (Oct 19, 2005 9:37 pm) dolphin (Nov 13, 2005 6:59 am)

Replying to: mitchc (Oct 19, 2005 7:42 pm) Error above. Actually paid $24,580 - exactly the MSRP as posted on edmunds (not 25.5K). Out the door was about 25,800 after taxes and tags, plus 500 deposit paid earlier when car was ordered. That was quite a surprise to me - that they hadn't inflated that MSRP number considerably with "add-ons" - seems to be a favorite tactic at toyota.

Replying to: mitchc (Oct 19, 2005 7:42 pm) Ummmm....I do not believe that you had a first tank of 'gas'   I think you were part of the hysteria paying MSRP...

I got this unbelievable deal last Friday from Brandon VW $22920 out of door (inc tax) for auto TDI, north sea green. There are 6 more TDIs. Check their web site and ask for the internet sales mgr. Good luck!

Replying to: cnfmsu (Dec 19, 2005 5:33 am) I received a similar deal on 2006 Jetta TDI w/ package 1 and additional heated seats, rubber floor and trunk mats for 22,905. I think there is more room for negotiation than they let on.   Good Luck Replies to this message: cnfmsu (Dec 20, 2005 5:35 pm) jimbrowncfhp (Dec 21, 2005 5:15 am) wai (Dec 21, 2005 5:37 am) and 2 more...

Replying to: jimbrowncfhp (Dec 20, 2005 3:30 am) That is a very good deal. Does the deal (TDI w/package 1) for $22,905 include the tax? I was looking for package 1. But there was nothing from that dealer. Replies to this message: jimbrowncfhp (Dec 21, 2005 5:15 am) wai (Dec 21, 2005 5:37 am) cnfmsu (Dec 21, 2005 6:43 am) and 1 more...

Replying to: cnfmsu (Dec 20, 2005 5:35 pm) No, it is plus tax, but includes the dealer prep fee of 298 Replies to this message: wai (Dec 21, 2005 5:37 am) cnfmsu (Dec 21, 2005 6:43 am) jimbrowncfhp (Dec 26, 2005 6:54 am)

Replying to: jimbrowncfhp (Dec 21, 2005 5:15 am) What is this dealer prep fee of 298 comprised of? Is it temporary Tag and title registration fee? If it is, its too high. Here in PA, I only paid $10 for temp tag. Replies to this message: cnfmsu (Dec 21, 2005 6:43 am) jimbrowncfhp (Dec 26, 2005 6:54 am)
