New 09 Jetta TDI by nyyace

Just picked up a Silver 09 Jetta TDI, 6 speed manual, Sunroof, Rubber Mats, Spolier, 17" rims. MSRP 25,098 selling price 22,998... no haggle, no problems.
 
I was given this price immediately, and it is $1800 LESS than edmunds what others are paying price and $1500 less than carsdirect selling price for the area.
 
They also gave me $500 MORE for my trade then Edmunds quoted. Anyone looking for a TDI I STRONGLY recommend Palisades VW in West Nyack, NY. It is located right over the Tappan Zee bridge, just north of NYC.
Send me a message, and I can recommend a great salesman.

The dealers around here almost always post MSRP on all their vehicles. Hoping some sucker will walk in and pay full price. You have to get aggressive to move them below Invoice. One dealer has $5000 over MSRP on one of the new VW Touareg TDI V6 models. They may be like the Sportwagen, that is harder to find than the Jetta Sedan TDI. Makes getting a good deal a bit more of a challenge.

Not to worry. The quick slow down is a design feature of the transmission.

Looking to buy 09 TDI Demo with 5K miles by jettabuyer1

The dealer says sticker price is 27,000 and will take 23,500. I did a builder online at vw.com and can build my own new one with more options for 26,488. How much do you think they should take off for the miles?

$1500 to $1750 discount for the demo miles is what I'd ask for. At least $2500 UNDER invoice including the demo discount. There are a fair number of very low mileage used 09 TDI available so do a search on Autotrader and compare the used prices as a reference value.

What advantage is there to getting the 17” rims? Are there any disadvantages?

Disadvantage - at least $398 (invoice cost) more for 17'
Disadvantage - more susceptible to damage from potholes and such
Disadvantage - higher cost to replace 17' tires
 
Advantage - minor improvement in handling. Most people would not notice a difference.

add to disadvantages-
 
4. 17 in tires do not last as long as 16 in stock tires
5. loss of hp and torque
6. lower fuel mileage
7. loss of braking (takes longer to stop)

Don't forget the rougher ride with the 17" tires. The only advantage to low profile is handling. The rest is all negative, unless you count looks as important. I can't see them when I am driving so could care less.
 
PS
and all the things ruking added also.
