Well, leases that have a sale price around I thiink..$22k or so, usually have a payment of around $300, for instants my payment are $319 including tax and my sale price was around that mark. I have had 2 leases now, and have had pretty much the same payment. Your not too far off at all, but I do think you could see how good your sale price is. Your pretty much on target, but if you can pull a bit harder, than I think you could do slightly better. Check it all out here on Edmunds, look up new car prices, sale and invoice prices for the car. I think your on to a good deal though. Let us know. |

Now is not the time for anyone to be putting that much down on a car, if you decide to take a loan on the car, and keep it for years, than that would be better. For every $1k=$20-30 off your payments or added back. What was your sale price for the S model? That will tell you if they are working for you or against you.

Replying to: bvdj84 (Jun 13, 2009 4:44 pm) To clarify-It's automatic, not a manual, so it's a little pricier. Since it's a California edition, it also includes Bluetooth, spoiler, alloy wheels and Ipod Adapter. My sale price is $19,815. I'm actually leasing here in California because I'll be here exactly three years and don't want to have to pay to ship a car back to New York (where I'm from). I want the barebones Jetta and pay the minimum I can for the 3 years and then give it back. 0% chance of me keeping the car. I can also pay it all up front if that made sense economically. Will ask for the regular S edition and not the California edition if it can save me money.

Replying to: tigereng (Jun 14, 2009 9:47 am) I wouldn't pay for it all up front. I just wouldn't wrap a bunch of money in a car. But, the sale price seems nice! Go for it! |

leased an 09 wolfsburg a couple weeks ago. not many of these left, i guess they only make 12k per year, and hard to locate. anyhow, here are my terms 36 month lease 12k miles/yr $0 $595 due at signing (1st months pmt plus license fee) 6MT, monstor mats/cargo liner $287/mth (includes tax). IMO this was a very good deal. lease pmts was based on $20,799 base cap cost; MSRP was $22,xxx. Residual value at term end is $12,234 I think anyone looking at an SE or SEL should be able to arrive at a similar price, based on similar MSRP Most folks who get fleeced wtih a payment in the mid to low 300's a month is due to their shopping for similar "sport" compacts, which are usually leasing in the mid 300's, so the uninformed feels that the wolfsburg lease rate in the low/mid 300's is in the "ballpark". Also looked at a 2009 civic SI, which i got down to the same price (~$275/mth nothing down). I am quite impressed with the car - feels very solid, the 2.0T is a GREAT motor. My leasing philosophy in the past, which has always treated me well, is to ID the amount you want to pay each month (nothing down), and find the most car for that price range. There is really nothing out there that provides, IMO, a comparable deal given the motor in the jetta wolfsburg, with v-tex (not too bad a surface), heated seats, sunroof, decent stereo. I was also considering a suby legacy SE, mazda 3/6; nothing matched the driving dynamics of the VW per dollar. Mind you i am coming out of a 4 year lease on a saab 9-3 2.0T manual. This car was a blast to drive, but actually i think the VW has a more sporty feel. Sure, the VW has a few less creature comforts that were nice (auto off lights, auto AC, etc), but for $113 less a month, i'm pretty happy! good luck |

Replying to: jettasquire (Jun 17, 2009 9:23 am) Thanks for providing us with the numbers. I think you got an excellent deal. Would you mind sharing the money factor and the payment before taxes? Also, if you still have the numbers for the Si around, I'd like to take a look at them as well. Thanks.

Replying to: passat_mx (Jun 17, 2009 1:54 pm) not sure about the money factor, but evidently it was either on par with what VW is using or even better, given the bottom line lease numbers. i don't have any specific figures on the civic si - just going on the price that i received at jay honda in bedford after getting competitive quotes on line and again re-confirmed in person with the sales schlep. i recall the price of the si on which the lease was based was around $18,500. what i did was use edmonds quote request, got tons of quotes on line and put them against one another. the most upfront dealer got my business. all the others whom i told were way out of the park from the most competitive quote said they'd match the best quote. i simply responded that my loyalty goes to the dealer that is upfront in offering the best, most competitive quote from the get go. if you are looking for a WE, i'd get on it soon. i got the last one in the region, but my other lease broker said he could get me whatever i wanted (not so sure about that given the ltd edition). he also quoted $279 w/o tax $0 down |

Replying to: jettasquire (Jun 17, 2009 9:23 am) Though, I am in another lease now for a little under 2 more years... I plan to do what I can to get the car I "want" The Wolfsburg offers big bang for the buck. Not to mention its so much fun! |
