I purchased a Rabbbit with same options and MSRP of $18,470 last week in Durham, NC.
 
I paid $17,048 for the car, $511 tax, $367 doc fee, and $74 license and title. Grand total of $18,000 out the door.

Hay guys, I love this car, I am 6'1 250 Football player. I Fit perfectly in this vehicle. I bought it from Gallery Volkswagen in Norwood Mass. MSRP was 14,990 plus Frieght. I paid 14,890 for it. Got them to even throw in some floor mats. This car is going to have strong residuals. Later

Proud '06 2DR Rabbit Owner after Several Weeks! by morrdba

Sooooooo glad I didn't buy a rice-burner! I REALLY drive this car hard every day 70 miles round-trip to work and LOVE it! I know what I'm talking about after owning 38 cars in 31 years in my immediate family of four('84 GTI included along with 10 other NEW VW's). I hope you Mazda 3 owners don't try to run your A/C and accelerate at the same time! Other than the buyer's remorse I had over my Chesapeake, VA dealer selling '06 GTIs for $199/mo, I am truely 5cyl plus 170ft lbs happier during my commute!

Jeez, for nearly $21K, you should get the GTI instead. 200HP, 207 ft. lbs. torque and better fuel efficiency.

I paid $20,920 for this exact rabbit which is MSRP. You can NOT get a GTI for $21,000 in a 4 DOOR with a Sunroof and Satelite radio ( in my area)...believe me I checked that out before I bought my Rabbit....plus you need to go leather in the GTI to get heated seats...I love this car, I did a lot of test drives of other cars and came out of a VW Passat which I loved, but the Rabbit is a lot of car for the money. It does not feel like driving a tin can.

Has anyone else made a purchased yet? What is a good/bad deal? It seems that there is not much room for price negotiation for this foreign made car?

Re: "16 Alloy Package, ESP, Satellite radio and sunroof."
 
Do you REALLY need all this gadgetry? The Rabbit is supposed to be an economical car (though MPG is not great). No wonder they're asking over $20K.
 
When VW puts a better engine in the Rabbit or brings over the Polo maybe more people will take notice. The 1.6 FSI engine is a better option. It powerful in most situations and is very fuel efficient. North America continues to get short shrift from VW.

I think the price really depends on your area (how many dealers, how well the vehicle is selling, how much inventory). MSRP on the car you described (assuming this is an automatic) is $20,920 including destination. Invoice is $19,945 (including destination). Are you sure the dealer pricing is accurate (2% above invoice would be 20,344 including destination). Unless there are some other options this price seems a little high.
 
VW Rabbits in my neck of the woods (Northern VA) can be had for about $100 over invoice . If you live in the Northeast checkout:
