Sorry, I included the saleman's name which is not allowed on this forum so my post was deleted.
 
The "translation" is as follows"
 
Jim Clark VW, Lawrence, KS. about 50 miles from Kansas City.
 
2005 Golf GLS TDI Manual, ESP, and CWP MSRP $20,585.
 
Price was Edmunds Invoice + $329.00 VW Ad Share + $100 = $19,671. Minus VW Loyalty $500.00 = $19,171 + tax. This dealership does not charge any "FEES".

I purchased my 2003 Jetta GLS TDI Wagon from Flow, (45k in 20 months) it was the most pleasurable place to purchase a car. We actually drove from Raleigh to purchase our car a year and half ago.

I bought my 05 TDI Jetta Wagon with ESP in November 04 from the VW dealer in Cary, NC. I tried to deal with the dealer in Durham, Nc, where I live, but got nowhere (he actually hung up on me). I paid $19,700 plus tax, title, tags, & a $35o dealer fee. Thought it was all reasonable. This my second TDI. My son totalled my first one after I only had it 45 days. He ain't driving this one.

Yesterday I bought 05 passat GLS TDI with lether package, 17 wheel, ESP and destination charge.
The sticker price is 28,300 and I made a deal 27000 and 1.9 interest for 48month.
ONe of odd thing is when I made a deal dealer told me that I need pay for additional fee for cleaning and fill up gas and put the matress...
Dealer charge that $430 something so my purchase price was $27430 plus tax title and tag. I want know whether my deal is fair and dealer fee is mandatory in this business

There is a VW dealer in Langhorne PA (just outside of Philly, I believe) that is selling TDI Jettas at invoice (the sales guy responsible for internet marketing is selling lots of them). I live in CT. and could only find 1 dealer (Langdon VW in Meriden) that would discount the sticker price on a TDI Jetta (they gave a $1K below sticker discount). I really hate playing the "lets make a deal" game typical at most dealerships. There are a # of posts on tdiclub.com from people that have purchased cars through this dealer.

If you are looking for a TDI Jetta, and are anywhere near Philly, PA, I would strongly suggest contacting the internet sales guy at a VW dealer in Langhorne, PA. I purchased an 04 PD GLS TDI Jetta in August from Langdon VW in Meriden, CT in August. I paid 22K (out the door, all fees included in this price). They discounted the sticker price 1K, and I had bought my daughter a Jetta recently so I got a 1K owner loyalty rebate. They were the only VW dealer in CT. that was willing to give more than a 1 or 2 hundred dollar discount of off sticker in CT. (most just told me that they don't discount Diesels because they are hot sellers). I feel that most internet sales coordinators at VW dealers don't really look at the job as an opportunity to really expand their sales base by offering a significant discount to entice people to travel outside of their normal purchasing radius. Personally, I find the entire typical process of "lets make a deal" new car purchasing (oh, I'll have to check with my manager on that) as rather disgusting; I just want to cut to the chase and know what the bottom line is. This VW dealer in Langhorne, PA has posted on tdiclub.com that he will sell at invoice price and he has been getting people to travel from quite a distance to take advantage of the great prices that he is offering. The Meriden dealership where I purchased my Jetta is about 40 miles from my house so I would never travel that far to have a recall or warranty work done, so I really don't see much differance in where you buy a car (sales and service are 2 completely separate entities).

On March 09 2005 I test drove a Jetta TDI. Seemed like a nice car but mind you it was after a long day and I was sick and on cold medication The next day my fiance and I went back to buy the car. It was the evening.. and I couldn't see the details but looked great. Got halfway home and realized that the financial people didn't take my down payment check. No biggie they said they would call the next AM to check on me and how my new Jetta was doing. I thought I'd mention it then. Got it home and the next morning and realized there was a ding in the rear passenger door. Ok I'll mention this when they call me. Oops they didn't call. No one called. At about 3pm then next day I tracked down the finance lady and she didn't even realize that it was missing. So that day (day 2) I brought down the check and showed told the sales person about the ding. She said to call and make an appointment for the day when they have the ‘dent wizard’ guy come in (Monday). Between that time I realize that the alignment is off, there is play in the brakes and the trunk now won’t pop open when you hit the button. I called her back he got an appointment set up through her and had made arrangements for a loaner car. She said bring a list of what’s wrong. She said your appointment is at 9am but you can bring it in any time past 7:30 am. So I got there at about 8am Monday morning. Checked in my car and they told me they had no loaners. They would need to call a rental car agency. No prepared car.. no one waiting for me.. they had to call it. At 8:55am the rental shows up for me. I have to be at work at 9am. EXCELLENT. I am then asked to pay some additional insurance fees for this car – are you kidding me ? – I don’t have time for this by then. I just wave whatever and sign and drive. 11am I get a call from the service department and they can’t take the dent out with dent wizard it will need to go to the body shop – um well I’m not excited about having my new car bondoed but he said he would check with my sales rep because I said I bought it with a dent in it so you all need to take care of it. He said he would get back to me. HE didn’t. I called at 2ish and left a message for him. He called me back at 3pm let me know they are still working on the alignment – alignment on a car I have had for two weeks. It was scheduled for 9am. Ok so I’m thinking they are a making their way though my list. But he says that it still has to go to the body shop and will be in till Thursday. But I have a rental. Um ya great guy.
 
To recap: I bought it, someone was supposed to call me the next day to check on me – no call no one cared, called to make an appointment with arrangements for a car – got there… no car and 55 min wait for one.. no call from service on what the outcome of my dent delima was and I am tracking “THEM”down. The whole time I’m filling out paperwork the sales rep was saying “what can we do to get a 5 when VW calls” Man you couldn’t buy a 5 outta me those people are SLACK and I’m calling VW this evening to give them my two cents. I used to own a Pontiac. Car sucked .. great service. Should of kept it. I’m starting to think I got a lemon.
