Replying to: steavos (Dec 12, 2008 4:30 pm) After having it 3 weeks I still feel it's easily the best value in it's class for the features you get. The only issue i have is the stereo is very "trebley" if that's a word. I actually found that dealers were more willing to work on prices of automatics because apparently only 10% of the WE's are manuals (there's really no way I could find to verify this) and they actually offered me $100 less than that for an automatic, but I prefer manual. |

Hi, I am in Miami, FL and planning to lease a VW Jetta, either S or SE , in the next week. First question: other than the sunroof and V-tex seats, is there a real difference between the two model's? Also, the numbers they brought back to me were around $300 p. (39m, 12K p/y) for the S and about $20 more ($320) for the SE. I want to know if this is a good deal or am I getting ripped off. The VW website shows the S at $269 p/m + tax, tag, dealer fees etc. Can I ask them to waive the dealer fees? Basically I want to know if $300 for this lease is a good deal or should i walk away?

Replying to: nslawrence (Dec 14, 2008 6:01 am) I leased an SE for 275.00 a month a few weeks ago, $500 down full ( I think all but $100 of that were registration fees). I did a lot of haggling , I feel like it an ok deal. In this enviornment, I would really try to get them below 300. I have 12k per yr, 39 months. For me, the S is not worth it. The wheels look cheap and there is no satellite radio. The SE is better. Keep in mind before this I had an SEL ( it was a package 3 in 2006) with real leather and NAV so I couldn't give up that much and drop to an S. Even though its a pain always always got to at least 2 dealers. Call one and try bluffing. Maybe say, " someone else is telling me 295 but if you can do 280, I will buy from you.." Keep us posted! By the way I am in the Boston area.

Replying to: polyvw (Dec 11, 2008 4:09 pm) Volkswagen is waiving the first month's payment and security deposit on all Jetta leases this month. I believe, but I'm not 100% positive, that the Wolfsburg qualifies for this offer. Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum

Replying to: jessy1 (Dec 14, 2008 9:27 am) My 05.5 Jetta Lease is up soon and want to get into an 09 SE (auto) or SEL. What was the price of the car? Any money down? |

Here is the breakdown of what I am being offered, and I will probably be making a decision tomorrow or wednesday. '09 Jetta S MT Price: $18,189 Preferred Customer Discount: -$1389.00 Selling Price: $16,800 Sales Tax (Estimate)(WA Tax is about 9%): $1499.65 Tag/Registration Fees: $86.00 Documentation Fee: $50 TOTAL BALANCE: $18,435.65 They are offering me $258/39mo/30k with $500 down. Invoice is $17,350, but with tax this seems legit. Should I be able to ask for the $500 MT rebate? Also should I be able to ask for the 1st month waiver? What information am I missing?

Replying to: amartinwa (Dec 15, 2008 11:24 pm) I think the 1st month waiver is done from VW Credit, so you should be just confirm with them that will be the case. I called a couple of dealers in the NY area, they are telling me that the manual transmission $500 is not available this year. I ran your numbers through the model, the number sounds about right, I am coming up with $257.40. You should also be paying for a $575 acquisition/bank fee, which I am guessing they somehow included into the vehicle price. I guess in WA you have to pay taxes on the full amount of the vehicle, which is a bummer. I think in NY, the amount is only on the amount of the lease payment (could be wrong, haven't confirmed this). I think the $18,189 amount is $200 higher than the MSRP price, which I am assuming they included carpet. I guess you can ask them to remove that to lower your payment by about $5/month.

Replying to: amartinwa (Dec 16, 2008 11:44 am) This is still higher than what I told them I would pay, so I will have to do some additional work. This is a Jetta S Manual w/no options. I am not in a hurry to get the car, so I will wait until I get the target price I am looking at.
