Replying to: jwodae (Jul 15, 2006 6:54 pm) 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.

Replying to: gogogodzilla (Jul 15, 2006 7:38 pm) 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? Replies to this message: lexcord (Jul 19, 2006 9:54 am)

Replying to: jwodae (Jul 15, 2006 6:54 pm) 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.

Replying to: jwodae (Jul 15, 2006 6:54 pm) 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 .

Replying to: jwodae (Jul 15, 2006 11:05 pm) My experience from Pa:   2006 5 spd manual 4 dr Rabbit ESP and 16"rims Sage green.   1 dealer wouldn't budge off of a price of $18,865 (+ about $1000 in taxes, tags, notary) (offered $2000 for my trade)   called 2nd dealer and he got the same car down to 18,000 (plus about $950 taxes tags and notary) (offered $2100 for my trade)   first tank of gas = 27 MPG Only problem: Lumber adjusting knob was broken upon delivery and is being taken care of by the dealership (for free obviously).   Absolutly love the way this car drives. I had put this car against a Honda FIT when deciding what new car I wanted. I am so glad I went with the Rabbit! Hope this helps anyone else on the fence about which car to buy....

I know this can be a sensitive subject but I was wondering how many of you leased or bought the new Rabbit and how much the upfront cost/monthly payments were.

Replying to: jwodae (Jul 20, 2006 4:41 pm) I went to them and offered $18,000 out-the-door; not negotiable. The sales manager gave me a song and dance about losing money at that price and they can't do it. So I left and continued shopping other dealers. I realized that my offer was probably was unrealistic, however, I was patient. 3 days later they called me back and accepted my offer. I didn't ask why, I just jumped on it before they changed their minds.
#36 of 109 Pricing and buying experience by imejasan Jul 21, 2006 (3:30 pm)
Just bought a 4-door Rabbit for my daughter.   Black   ESP   Sunroof   Upgraded wheels/tires   Auto tranny   Rear side airbags   $21,100.00 plus California sales tax (7.25%) and license.   Love the car. I own several Benzes and this is one hell of a fun car to drive.   Build quality is excellent and performance is more than adequate.
