My Passat wagon komfort lease deal by cutbacklarry

Hi everyone,
Just want to let people know my deal.
 
I just purchased a new 2008 Passat Komfort Wagon,
 
325 + tax
36 months 12,000 miles
Drive off - first month down
(Gross cap cost 26394)
 
I'm pretty happy with that. This was from Livingston VW, Woodland Hills CA.
 
I was offered 319 + tax, first month down in an email and they offered to get me any color in 24-48 hours. (Other dealers were offering me 375, 395, 442!!) So I went to the dealer and I picked a silver komfort wagon which happened to be in San Diego. When it came to manager approval, he flatly refused, saying I could have the white komfort on the lot, but he wanted $10 a month more to get the one from San Diego etc. etc. Sounded like a tactic to get more money, so we haggled and settled on an extra 6 bucks. No big deal considering the money factor is so low and I was getting the car I wanted.

The lease was for:
36 months
10,000 miles.
 
If I chose 48 months, which I am considering, the monthly payment will drop 10-15 bucks.
for those interested, the dealier is:
Bayside VW in Queens NY.
 
I have seem bad coments about Bayside service center, and I must say that in my experience with my last 2 leases, the sale person have been nice and decent.
 
The only downside to this deal, is that they don't have the car and I may have to wait 2-3 weeks until they get me one. -I can wait.

Lease - Komfort w/ Heated Seats & Ipod Adapter by tballs

I just leased a Passat Komfort for my parents in MA. I've leased a few cars now, and have found a process that seems to work well for me (with lots of help from these forums and especially the car_man!).
 
I email a few dealerships' internet sales manager that say something like the following: "I'm interested in leasing a Volkswagen Passat Komfort in Black, Grey or Silver for either 24 mos or 36 mos / 15k per year. THe options I'm interested are heated seats. Please provide me with a quote via email with the following info:
MSRP
Purchase Price
Residual
Money Factor / INterest Rates
Inception FEes - Please itemize.
 
I usually get an email reply asking me to come in and go for a test drive. By this point I've already driven whatever vehicle I'm leasing so I simply reply that I already have and am interested in the financial details. Some try to call instead of email. If I get a voicemail (I travel internationally for work) I just send another email saying that I got their voicemail and to please send me the information via email.
 
Once I have the information from the dealers, I compare them to each other and to what I read in the message boards here. Then I pick one and go into the dealership to do the paperwork.
 
Just leased my mum a black passat komfort with tan interior. Includes IPod Adapter and heated seats and rubber floor mats.
 
Drive off/inception fee was $790, which includes the first month's payment.
Monthly Payments are $289 including tax. Lease is 36 months / 15k. I'll have to check, but I think that the residual was 47& and the money factor was .00018
 
The original offer that I got was from Quirk VW. The internet sales manager's name is Mark Gallagher - very good guy to work with. Unfortunately Quirk didn't have anything in Komforts other than Blue Slate or whatever that color is. Minuteman VW in Bedford, MA was willing to match the offer and get a black passat from another dealer, something that Quirk says that they don't do. So we did the deal with Minuteman. The whole process from initial email to sign took approximately 1 week.

VW 2008 Passat Wagon Komfort lease - deal or not? by treebee

Ok - this has been great reading, but i have never leased a vehicle and want to run some numbers by you all since it seems we are at the end of the 2008 vehicles and perhaps there are great deals to be had. It looks like most people are paying 0 down and that is not the deal we are currently considering -- please advise
 
$2k down
$312 month/48 mos.
first month 'free'
maintenance booklet covers all maintenance for 4 yrs (supposedly)
residual is somewhere around $12,300
 
Thanks in advance!
