Hello thammeow. If I was personally in the market for a 2008 Touareg in an area that has a decent level of competition, I would shoot for a selling price of around $500 over dealer invoice. The market for new vehicles is pretty slow right now, plus gas prices are high and the Touareg sucks it down. If you shop around, you may be able to find a dealer that will sell you one for this low a price. If you lease, a selling price of $500 over invoice would actually be equivalent to $500 under invoice once the $1,000 cash incentive that Volkswagen is providing on leases of this truck through VW Credit is taken into account. Try stopping by the following discussion for additional information on how much you should pay for this vehicle right now: "Volkswagen Touareg Prices Paid and Buying Experience".

Hi archielevick. I am sorry to say that unless Volkswagen is running some sort of official early lease termination program that I am not aware of it is likely going to be fairly expensive for you to get out of your Passat lease its scheduled end date. In order to do so, you need to purchase the vehicle that you are currently leasing from the bank that you are leasing it through. It often turns out that it costs more to do so than your vehicle is worth on the open market. Furthermore, many banks expect consumers who end their leases early to still make all, or at least the depreciation portion of their remaining lease payments. As you can see, this can get very expensive.
You can determine approximately how much it will cost you to get out of your current lease by comparing its purchase price to its value on the open market at this time. You should place a call to the bank that you are leasing your vehicle through to find out its exact price. Once you know exactly how much money it is going to cost you to buy your leased vehicle you need to compare it to its current value on the open market. You can find out approximately what your vehicle is worth by looking up its Edmunds.com True Market Value in the Used Vehicle Pricing section of this site. You also may want to stop by the following discussion: "Real-World Trade-In Values". Don't forget to check to see if you are still on the hook for your remaining lease payments. The difference between your leased vehicle's current value and how much it will cost you to buy it plus any remaining lease payments that you are obligated to pay will equal the cost of getting out of your lease right now. You may find that you are better off waiting until you are closer to the scheduled end of your lease to get another new vehicle.

Hi mdiab. I don't have an opinion on whether the Touareg's suspension package is worth the money, but I can give you an idea of what its current lease program is like. Volkswagen Credit's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2008 Touareg V6 with 10,000 miles per year are .00066 and 53%, respectively. When negotiating your lease on this truck, make sure to take advantage of the $1,000 cash incentive that Volkswagen is currently providing on leases of it through VW Credit. There is additional loyalty cash on this truck is you are a current Volkswagen owner or lessee.

Hi alakate. The $2,000 owner loyalty cash incentive that Volkswagen is providing on the 2008 Touareg is available through the end of the money. I personally would not be surprised if it was extended past that. Normally it is pretty expensive to get out of a lease a year before its scheduled end. Unless Volkswagen is running some sort of official early lease termination offer that I am not aware of you may be better off waiting until the scheduled end of your current lease to get something new. You can tell if the dealer that you are working with is burying part of the cost of getting you out of your lease in your new one by looking at its selling price. This is a very important number for you as a lessee to know anyhow. The selling prices of leased vehicles are negotiable, just as if you were paying cash for or financing them. Without knowing what this truck's selling price is, it is difficult to tell how much of a discount you are being given on it.

Hi tonyiamhe. I have seen Volkswagen's March lease program for the Touareg. Its program varies by term, mileage allowance, and trim level. For now I will assume that you are interested in a 36 month lease of a 2008 Touareg V6 with 15,000 miles per year. Let me know if you want something different. VW Credit's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of an '08 Touareg V6 with 15,000 miles per year are .00066 and 50%, respectively. When negotiating your lease on this truck, make sure to take the $1,000 cash incentive that Volkswagen is providing on lease of it and the $2,000 loyalty cash into account.

bank acquisition fee - $575
Total capitalized cost = $45,606.24
Residual - $20,350 (44%)
Money factor - .00118
Monthy Payment - $604.00 (includes taxes rolled in)
What do you think?

Seems high to me considering I did 3 yrs, 15k, fully loaded v6 for selling price of 45k+tax and my monthly is $670 nothing down. Talk to Chris Farhnam at VW Langhorne. He helped me and is pretty honest.

I'm in Chicago so we have to pay full sales tax just as we would if we were buying it. So the $604 was inclusive of almost $3600 in tax. Do you have to pay full sales tax in PA? Just curious if we're looking at an 'apples to apples' or not.
Thanks!
