VW's Current offers expire on Jan. 2, 2009. Will it be likely that a new sales incentive will be offered which includes the TDI?

A local VW dealer stated in that in addition to a $650 destination charge that VW charges dealers other fees such as advertising and other fees totaling $1000 per vehicle. This local dealer stated that these fees are passed on to customers. I was shown an invoice, and the fees did add up to $1000.

Replying to: chittychittybb (Dec 31, 2008 9:39 pm) I paid below invoice, and it did not have anything added but the destination charge. Unless you let them know that you are certain of the price of the vehicle and no extra fees, they will sing any tune saying those costs have to be so. No way. I recommend looking up the invoice price on edmunds.com and then also read up on tricks and "confessions of a car salesman", also on here. One part explains what fees you pay...and which are not legit. In the end, I paid just below 1,000 below invoice...a true invoice. As the other person posted, they have them on the lot, and they way things are, and nso few buying and so many panicking, do your homework, be sure of what you know, shop more than one dealer against another, and see who gives you best internet price, then push them a couple times more and you're sure to get a good deal. Just be firm but courteous the whole time...we're only out to get a fair deal and not get overcharged...at the end of the deal, they are still people like us with families and need to make a living...and always be nice.

The price I am negotiating for a 2009 manual TDI with optional rear air bags, sunroof, ipod adaptor, and splash guards is $24074. This price represents the options, the destination, and a fee to retrieve the vehicle from out of state. Edmunds: MSRP $25458 Invoice $23986 TMV $25727 Thus $1384 under MSRP, and $88 over invoice. Consumer Reports has this deal with 4% mark up at $54 over their bottom line price. Does this look like a good deal?

Replying to: redvw (Jan 01, 2009 5:55 am) That is not bad. If you plan to use that dealer for all your service it would be best not to beat them down to nothing. You might get them to throw in oil changes during the warranty period. I am expecting diesel to come down closer to gas prices this year and the diesels will again bring a premium price. Good time to buy now.
