2006 Shadow Blue/Beige leather PK2 DSG. Ended up at $500 over edmunds invoice plus free window tint and then inventory tax $62.50, title and TX State inspection $64.75,license $60.80 and $50 doc fee. Which I did not fuss about since there was a line behind me paying MSRP for every last Diesel they had on the lot . I read the article in PA where they are charging + $750.00 MSRP for remaining Diesels. DL Dallas, TX

We went shopping for a VW TDI on Friday 5/5. For a VW Beetle TDI base model w/auto, Costco discount ($19,300 invoice + $500) plus WA state/Pierce County 8.8% sales tax and license, out the door $21,900. The window sticker was $23,XXX. Maybe I passed on a good deal, but under current buying conditions anything close MSRP might be considered a good deal. The kid graduates from college in 2 years and “maybe” in about 18 months the 2008 model year could produce many more options in the diesel category. I think I’ll keep saving my money and see what the next 18 - 24 months brings. |

We're ordering a manual TDI with Package #1 in Spice Red with the beige leatherette interior. It'll be delivered in July which is just what we want. Since the spread between invoice and MSRP seems to be only about $1300 there isn't a lot of room to negotiate. The four dealers within 25 miles of my home are all more or less hitting the Edmunds price. At ~$23.7K I'm happy aniticipating 45 mpg especially since diesel is only $.04 more per gallon in this area. (2.89 vs. 2.85) I note the full size spare and 60K drivetrain warranty. Is the VW extended warranty worth it? We usually keep our cars to 80-90K miles. Jay |

I live in the mid-west, St. Louis Mo to be exact. I bought a 2005 Jetta TDI, manual transmission, Nov/2005. I paid sticker price minus $100 dealer prep. The dealer would not come down any. There were not many TDI's to choose from. The one I wanted was located in a southern state & transported to my dealer in a week. I felt lucky to get it! I drive close to 100 miles round trip each day and average 48 miles to a gal of diesel. I buy my own diesel oil & filter & have my maintenance done at a non VW shop. One thing that attracted me to the diesel engine was the lifetime of the engine if maintained properly. I am a widow & have only myself to rely on. Believe me, this has been a good car for me. I hope others enjoy there car as much as I enjoy mine. "> |

OK, we ordered a 2006 Jetta tdi from one of the four local VW dealers and I'd like to report on the experience. Three of the dealers basically wouldn't budge: The price was MSRP minus a coupla hundred dollars. One dealer, a VW-Mazda store in NE Ohio ordered our car for delivery in August (when we wanted it!) for ~$275 over invoice plus tax and title. This is for a cash deal, no trade-in. BTW, our car is a Spice Red with Package Two. The XM option isn't available anymore; we're getting the Sirius radio. (Too bad because XM carries MLB and the Cleveland Indians is my team!) Too, Spice Red was discontinued as an option 3 days after we ordered. I'd say things are beginning to dry up. The 2008 tdi's apparently will have a highly modified emissions system that won't be ready in time. There will be no 2007 tdi's! Jay |

I was really interested in a Jetta wagon, the dealer told me they arren't making the Jetta Wagon anymore. Does anyone know why? I was also wondering what people have to say about the TDI vs. gas model. Is the mileage that much better? What about the stinky diesel smell? I have seen TDI cars with black smudge on the bumpers from the exhaust...yuk. Thank you in advance for your input!! Suz
