All the best.

I own a 2008 Jetta gasser (8 months old) and am looking at swapping it out for a TDI. The money I save on the back end ( tax credits and fuel ) make up some of the upside down problem, however I have 3.9 % on my gasser and notice VW is now offering the same 3.9% on the gas model only. Anyone know what VW is financing the TDI's at ? The Jetta is a great highway car, as I have had all positive experiences at 22k mi. I like the interior and the ride, however i like the 600mi range and the residual on the TDI.

Replying to: kooler (Mar 05, 2009 1:10 am) but I still want a Jetta SpotWagon TDI with panoamic sunroof, 17" tires, any color but black and open to anything else" One thing you must do is to learn how to post correctly to these forums! We are not idiots here. You need to start 'proof-reading' your posts for spelling, proper capitalization, etc. prior to sending them. As examples: "not able to fly 6 hours away" . . Six hours from SLC to PA? It is not even six hours from coast to coast!  "I am i Salt Lake City." Did you read this before you posted? "drive a new car 4000-5000 mi. back home." Again, you do not exaggerate figures at all, do you?  PA to SLC is less than 2000 miles! "I have been on foums and either the guys think I am a mess, they think I am a lier" When a person such as yourself exaggerates things the way that you do, who will or can believe anything you say? You 'say' you want to travel in your new JSW? Why not go to PA and get a new Jetta SPORTWAGEN and then enjoy the relatively short trip back to SLC? "above MSRP" Have you bothered to read and compare his prices which are clearly posted on those 'other' forums you say you have been on? I have never seen him post prices that were even close to MSRP let alone above MSRP. I, like many others here seriously doubt if you are really in the market for a JSW.  BTW, I do know where there is a new White JSW TDI DSG with 17 inch wheels, but it has no panoramic sun roof. Your problem among other things is your trade-in.

some of the people on thee forums are so mean, I fel bad for them, they must live such a depressie life. they have to know it all, be able to tell al people what to do or they get mea and post mean posts that are not even acurate. anyway enough of time to those posers. the honda is gone. what a relief. I felt like I was gettng nto a body cast everytime I got in the car. I have never felt so good about something. they went crazy over it, even know thei lot is full of them now, gas is $2/gal, not the $4 it was when I purchased it and could not find a Fit Sport. I got the TDI JSW too. Several offers but I ent with the guy in PA. he is all around these forums and probably does not even have to walk on his lot. Most people fly on way to him and drive the car back but PA is to ar (right now I am just not up for that so he is having a trucker rop it off (after it passes my inspection) and I hope it all goes OK.. It was a long haul because I did have sspecific wants and I hit tons o the people I described at the start of this post. thos people ae so funny. You know they are so pissed they must have either got s burned or just unhappy. it took some time. A lot o questions, a lot of pictures (at least requesting them), but now I have to figure out how to get the money to him. he has never had a customer do it this way so he ays I need to figure out how to get the money to him. I will wire it but I stil have to be careful even know he is known. if there is a problem, he is in PA, I am in Sal;t Lake City, so guess who has to go to who? anyway, it is a dark blue, 17"wheels with the ...I forgot the name of the tire. Moon roof, gorilla mats (a must and he hought that was so odd even know carpet mats do not come standard anymore?!) Take Care. I have no idea what is happening in 2010 but you hear all kinds of stuff. Good luck to the serious and nice shoppers. I even ran into hosts on here who ripped of my first Discussion s fast for some strange reason. it takes all kinds. I hope n a few months I have some odd reports to give I would not ever get close to Strong VW in Salt Lake City. They are game players and one day one guy is the GM, the next day another guy is the GM, they play games to get more sales. somebody told me they do that to test you up against...I had no idea what he was talking about. Peace and God's Blessings to al of you.

Replying to: rik4 (Mar 15, 2009 11:29 am) In Florida. Purchased an 2009 sportwagen candy white with tan interior. 6-speed automatic trans and pan sunroof were only add ons. MSRP $26,970.00 Invoice $25,450.00 Paid $25,209.00 plus $292.50 dealer fee + tax + tag and title. If you factor in the dealer fee, then I paid $50 over invoice. Not too bad.

Took delivery on March 19. salesman pointed out that it came with an Engine Heater. Had the unit on the Hoist the other day and removed the bottom engine cover. This heater is a Factory installed unit,as you could see how the heater was tied in(hoses,steel pipe,etc). I plugged it in and this heater works fast! Neat thing was,I ordered the car without a heater. It is a $495 item. So this ended up being a freebee! This '09 feels like a luxury car compared to my '02 Jetta. Very big improvements in noise level,trim,interior space,ride. AND POWER! Put her down into sport mode and watch out. Very happy with this unit!
