Replying to: ike3 (Sep 26, 2009 7:28 pm) I cannot find any information that says the tax credit ends in January. The VW tax credit will be cut in half after they reach 60,000 total TDI sales. Toyota and Honda have phased out. Ford will phase out 4/1/2010. VW, BMW & MB have a ways to go before they are cut in half. You will always get the premium back on resale. Unless you keep the car a long time.
#742 of 831 Bought one today by bigeyedfish81 Sep 26, 2009 (9:31 pm)
I bought one today, Black\Black, Auto Trans, 17" wheels from Bommarito VW in Hazlewood MO.   The MSRP was 26,369 and I ended up getting them down to $25,000 (+ the standard $199 rip off processing fee). Two weeks ago the same dealer said they couldn't deal on the TDI and probably wouldn't since they are one of the cars that isn't hard to move. The sales guy (Les) basically said that they haven't moved any cars this month so they are now selling them below MSRP (no dealer add-ons, just the straight MSRP). If your in the market for one I would check them out in the next few days and see what they can do.
#743 of 831 Bought 2010 Golf TDI 9/30/09 by anowlan Oct 01, 2009 (3:30 pm)
Placed an "order" for a 2010 Golf 2 DR TDI 6spd manual yesterday. Fully loaded, $29,000 out the door. That's MSRP. Given that it's a brand new model, I don't feel bad. Edmunds says TMV is MSRP. Anyone order one for less? Replies to this message: ike3 (Oct 02, 2009 4:27 am) anowlan (Oct 02, 2009 5:27 am)

Replying to: anowlan (Oct 01, 2009 3:30 pm) I have to say it. That is a pretty outrageous price for a 2 door hatchback. I'm sorry, that kind of value, in my book, is non-existent. What happened to just getting the $23k Golf TDI 2 door? What options did you get? Horrible deal. Replies to this message: anowlan (Oct 02, 2009 5:27 am)

Replying to: ike3 (Oct 02, 2009 4:27 am) Appreciate the comment, but perhaps I wasn't clear. 1. I paid MSRP, no more, no less. If anyone has paid less than MSRP for the 2010 Golf TDI, I'd love you to post. That's what this forum is for. 2. As mentioned, the car was equipped with EVERY available option 3. You can look at it as bad value; but out the door (which includes 7% state tax, tag, title and 'document' fees), with every available option, the car is $1500 less than an Audi A3 TDI's base price before options, state tax and fees. As we're going from an Audi A3 to the Golf, I see the car as representing excellent value. Name another attractive, diesel, manual car capable of carrying 4-5 folks. There isn't one in the US market, currently. Hence, the decision to purchase was easy.

Replying to: ike3 (Sep 26, 2009 7:28 pm) For clarification, I paid $200 under the MSRP sticker. There was no dealer add-on sticker as the dealer found one with the options I wanted on the delivery list going to another dealer. They traded for it. I have never paid MSRP for a car in over 40 years so I was not going to start at this time in my life, so that is why my comment that I paid more than I wanted to . Considering all factors I think I got the best deal available at the time. So believe it or not that is your option. I have driven over 370 miles on the initial tank of diesel and I am still at the 3/8 full mark and that is mostly city driving. I will let you know the mpg when I fill up next week.

Replying to: gagrice (Sep 26, 2009 7:01 pm) I just got back from filling up my new 2010 Jetta TDI for the first time since getting it new from the dealer. Other than the 100 highway miles I put on it getting it back home from St. Louis I have put on over 300 city miles for a total of over 405 miles. I figured it to be about 37mpg. I am extremely happy with the mileage and I know it will get better the more I break it in. It is a great car to drive , great handling ,smooth ride on the 17" wheels. I do have the auto trans so I know that also had some impact on the mpg . I plan on going to Chicago in the next couple of weeks, around 400 miles roundtrip, so I will check the mileage again. This is my first VW ever and the first Diesel so I am still getting used to driving it but at this point in time I am really glad I did not go out and buy a Prius. Thanks to all who provided me the information I needed to make a good solid decision.
#748 of 831 $29,130 JSW TID by oli1 Oct 03, 2009 (1:24 pm)
Just came back from my dealer and was quoted OTD of $29,130 for a JSW TDI auto, without Nav. or moon roof. Do you think I could do better? Will it pay to buy it out of state and then ship or drive it back, it worked with my mini S? Since I am not in a hurry, I will probably wait until the main rush to the showrooms is over and then see what the prices will be this time 2010.

Replying to: bgkanne1 (Sep 26, 2009 10:19 am) Just a note. I work in California for a VW dealer in a major metro area. No dealer anywhere in this state will be selling Jetta TDI SportWagons for MSRP; there are just too few of these cars coming in. If someone does claim they bought one for MSRP, that dealer is likely on it's last legs financially. You must remember we are in the biggest slowdown in vehicle sales ever. If a dealer is going to survive it must have at least one vehicle that is profitable; they can't survive on service operations. Just check how many dealerships have gone out of business.    2010 Jetta TDI sedans can sell relatively close to MSRP, since there will be more of them. Due to the relatively low price of diesel fuel (it's about $.20 a gallon less than regular gas) and the diesels far better long term operating cost over hybrids it's by far the smart choice for owners that keep their cars a long time or drive alot of miles.   I am an Internet Sales Manager at a family-owned dealership in a major metro area in California. We have a policy to never mark up cars, and TDI's are no exception. I have sold all our 2009 Jetta sportwagen TDI's for MSRP, have already sold 4 2010 JSW's myself for MSRP, and have more available. We are surviving just fine, and have been for over 60 years under the same ownership.   Pleas check your facts before you make such statements.
#750 of 831 Buying 2010 Jetta TDI by newtdiguy Oct 05, 2009 (2:09 pm)
Hello, Looking to buy a NEW 2010 Jetta TDI sedan. Does anyone know if there are any incentives down the road? Or what have people been paying for the 2010 model? Does any VW dealership deal in DEEP discounts for internet sales????
